Line Control and OEM Line System Integration
Most manufacturing lines are a collection of machines made by multiple OEMs.
Often, each machine becomes its own automation island; loosely interlocked with
the machines up- and downstream, but requiring individual management of recipes,
product-specific setpoints, alarm thresholds, and other configuration.
Line Control Systems delivered by Brock Solutions simplify this by unifying your
entire line, allowing:
- Single-system recipe management: Product recipes are managed in
one system, easily connectable to ERP, PLM, or other planning tools. Upon
start-up of a production run, the entire line is configured automatically and
reliably, making sure that the same product is made the same way every time.
- Quality Control: The line is monitored in real-time for product and recipe-specific critical
conditions and control-points (including HACCP and regulatory control checks).
Problems in production are caught and corrected quickly, instead of scrapping or
rejecting products after-the-fact.
- Line Monitoring: Overall line status is tracked by one system, pulling together performance, trends, and
alarms for reporting, analysis, and continuous improvement.
- Work Instructions: Make sure that the necessary manual operations are always
done correctly and on time. Work instructions can be product-specific or
generic.
