How mobile monitoring changes the food packaging factory.

Challenges the packaging factory faced

The owner of a factory wants to monitor 9 machines in a factory from his office, which may be difficult due to physical constraints. He hopes to receive notification immediately when an error occurs for quick response.

  • Timely Adjustment: Use cMT Viewer to allow the personnel to adjust device parameters anytime necessary, realizing a more flexible manufacturing management system.
  • Push Notification: Management receives EasyAccess 2.0 push notification on WeChat to stay on top of all onsite device status.

Outcome and Benefits

  • Manpower Reduction: Onsite devices can be managed using any device at hand from an office, so monitoring is highly efficient yet requires minimal manpower.
  • Faster Recipe Updates: Before, recipe updates were done with a USB device, one at a time. Now cMT-SVR serves as a recipe datacenter and greatly expedites recipe synchronization.
  • Secure Multi-party Collaboration: cMT Viewer enables multi-user connection, which is safeguarded by the exclusive user right management scheme that helps avoid conflicting operations.
  • Immediate Error Handling: When an error occurs, push notifications are sent to WeChat to allow for quick responses, which minimizes the risks associated with system downtime.
