Production Run Information
Input at the Start of a Production Run
Information | Input | Source |
---|---|---|
Lot Number / Production Run | Pre-programmed screen requesting Lot Number comes up when you start production | Operator Input – Bar Code Scan or Keys In on Key Pad – Input Source can be pre-programmed |
Part Number | Pre-programmed screen requesting Part Number comes up when you start production | Operator Input – Bar Code Scan or Keys In on Key Pad – Input Source can be pre-programmed |
Optional: Employee who Performed the Set-Up | Pre-programmed screen requesting Employee Number comes up when you start Set-Up NFC tag inputn | Operator Input – Bar Code Scan or Keys In on Key Pad – Input Source can be pre-programmed – NFC Tags |
Optional : Employee who Performed Production Run | Pre-programmed screen requesting Employee Number comes up when you start Set-Up NFC tag inputn | Operator Input – Bar Code Scan or Keys In on Key Pad – Input Source can be pre-programmed – NFC Tags |
Availability
Information | Input | Source |
---|---|---|
Machinery Available for Production | Switch Contact # 1 from the machinery | I/O Module obtaining an output from machinery – machine available time is automatically captured |
Producing Parts | Count Switch Contact #3 or there is an optional switch contact [#4] output from the Machinery | Line Supervisor maintains shift data and scheduled downtime |
Machinery Down – Scheduled | Input Table – Shift / Schedule Downtime | Operator Input – Bar Code Scan or Keys In on Key Pad – Input Source can be pre-programmed – NFC Tags |
Machinery Down- Unscheduled | Switch Contact #2 from machinery | I/O Module obtaining an output from machinery – machine downtime |
Machine Idle [Available for Production] | Calculated – Available Time less Producing less Downtime | VT3000 Software |
Performance
Information | Input | Source |
---|---|---|
Actual Quantity Output by Defined Time Period | Counts – Switch Contact #3 | I/O Module obtaining an output from machinery– VT3000 Software calculates |
Standard Quantity Output byDefined Time Period | Pre-programmed screen requesting Part Number comes up when you start production | VT3000 Software with Data Lookup Manager retrieves the Standard and calculates the Std Quantities |
Quality
Information | Input | Source |
---|---|---|
Total Parts in Production | Counts – Switch Contact #3 | I/O Module obtaining an output from machinery – capture total counts for production run. |
Quantity of Parts –No Shippable for Production Run / Lot Number | Entered into the Production Status Module at the end of the Production Run or entered into the Database at a later date for the production run | Either the operator at the end of a production run or quality engineering at the later date |

Performance Activity Information
Capture Production Performance By
- Employee
- Hour
- Shift
- Part Number
- Production Run
- Work Station or Equipment
- Production Time by time period – day or shift
- Availability by time period- day or shift
- Idle Time by time period – day or shift
Real Time Performance to Standard
With immediate communications options when Standard is not being met.
- Set-Up Time
- Cycle Time
- Takt Time
- Scrap Standard
Communications – Optional for the Future
- Number of Incidents
- Response Times to Incidents
The automatic capture and documentation of the response time to floors issues has
proven to significantly change the way that floor support respond to issues.
Set-Up
- Pre-Run Check List – this can include measurement information
- Total Set Up Time
- Set-Up Disruptions (i.e. Set-Up Unscheduled Downtime by Reason Code)
- Counts
- Employee
- Performance to Standards
Production
- Employee
- Total Units Produced (Machine Count)
- Total Time
- Total Scheduled & Unscheduled Downtime by Reason Code
- Total Production Time
- Scrap Count
- Scrap by Reason Code
- Performance to Standard
Counts
Equipment Interfaces
Typically the VT3000 only requires (2) two equipment interfaces to the input modules for the capture and profile of performance information. These can be software switches or switch contact inputs.
- Counts
- Machine in Production Output Mode
- Optional – Scrap [ This can be either manual or equipment input]
Input Screens Examples – Production Status Module
