Equipment downtimecosts time and money

Unplanned downtime is a nightmare for every company, but especially for continuous production facilities. Troubleshooting in the event of equipment failure is not only tedious and complex, but also very expensive. In turn, the lost time and resources associated with downtime can negatively impact both productivity and the competitiveness of the company.

Identifyerrors in real time via thecompany network

An important component of Industry 4.0 is the exchange of data during production. To this end, companies are increasingly adopting Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture (OPC UA) as the industry standard for machine communication protocol. From production to servicing, OPC UA helps to optimize many aspects of plastics processing. By minimizing losses of time and products, OPC UA helps to maximize added value and product quality.

When metal separators are networked with plastic processing machines, the flow of information between machines can be monitored. Should any system error occur, the system operator instantly receives a notification and can address the issue immediately. A comprehensive  overview of the different parameters under which the equipment is operating runs in real time over the company network.

Improvedsystemavailability and minimal downtime

The implementation of OPC UA communications protocol has had many benefits for Sitraplas. “Since we have been using OPC UA, we’ve had minimal maintenance and downtime,” says Tim Hencken, Managing Director of Sitraplas GmbH. “System availability has seen considerable improvements.”
