Production Monitoring Sensors

Wireless sensors for production monitoring. With continuous monitoring, gain insight into critical manufacturing processes. Get real-time feedback and alerts via phone, text, or email. Part of the Leap Sensors system for the Industrial IoT.

  • Track production counts, downtime events, OEE, stop counts, total downtime, and line rate using just a wireless photo eye sensor and our proprietary edge node logic. This groundbreaking sensor counts products as they come off the production line. A count-reset button on top of the enclosure resets the count at the end of a shift. With edge computing, the sensor also calculates the time between each product's pass to identify when downtime occurs and its duration. It can then trigger text, email, and telephone alerts when the downtime exceeds certain user-set limits. In addition, the system tracks line rate, total downtime and uptime along with Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) since the last count reset. The current state of the line, up or down, is also displayed. The sensor transceiver node wirelessly transmits the data across the production floor to a gateway, which collects the data and passes it to the Leap SensorManager user software, PLC, or other plant monitoring software. Quickly download data to an Excel spreadsheet to analyze downtime.     Photo eye or proximity sensors are configured to each application. Add approximately $175. Build your quote here:

Frequently Asked Questions about Production Monitoring

There is a push-button on the node enclosure that will zero the count.

The electro-optic sensors that detect the boxes require wall power to “watch” all the time.  The data from the device node is transmitted wirelessly to the gateway.

Yes.  The production counter takes a time reading between each box that goes by.  You can set telephone, text, and email alerts if the time between the boxes exceeds a certain amount of time.  You can set that downtime alarm limit in the software configuration screen.  You can have the message set to anyone.
