Asset management software generates conditional text alerts

Wintriss Controls Group has announced a new capability for its ShopFloorConnect® asset management and OEE software: It now can generate conditional alerts automatically from any machine.

Each alert is a custom text or e-mail message that is sent to selected recipients whenever preset conditions are met at a machine. The alerts can be used to notify an operator when an unattended machine has stopped running; to alert management when a critical customer job goes down; or to summon certain resources when specific conditions exist at a machine, such as automatically notifying a forklift driver when a scrap bin needs to be replaced.

The software can generate multiple alerts for each machine and for select recipients according to their individual work or shift schedules. Existing software users are being updated with the new feature as a part of the software maintenance agreement.
