Industrial Grade Production Count Sensor with Manufacturing Downtime Monitoring – Wireless

$549.00

Improve factory visibility and efficiency with a wireless production counter sensor designed for real-time production tracking and production monitoring. This industrial counting sensor counts each unit moving along a conveyor or production line that passes by using a photo eye or proximity sensor, functioning as a reliable product counter and production counter for manufacturing operations. It uses our proprietary edge logic to record outputs, providing accurate production data without manual input.

  • Calculates the time between each product’s pass to identify when downtime occurs and its duration.
  • Displays current state of the line, up or down.
  • Real-time manufacturing tracking triggers text, email, and telephone alerts when the downtime exceeds certain user-set limits.
  • Easy installation – 5 minutes to set up.
  • Count-reset button on top of the enclosure resets the count at the end of a shift.
  • Functions as a production monitoring system, tracking 10 manufacturing KPIs, including: machine utilization, product counts, downtime events, OEE, stop counts, total downtime, and total active time.

Whether used as a standalone production line counter or as part of a larger production tracking system, this wireless sensor delivers a simple and scalable solution for modern industrial production environments.

Production Tracking Sensor with Manufacturing Downtime Monitoring Specifications

Product Counter Sensor/Conveyor Sensor

  • Counter increments as each item passes by the sensor.
  • Easy to reset using the count-reset button on the top of the enclosure.
  • Configurable de-bounce setting to allow adjustment for products that cause photo eyes to flicker, avoiding multiple counts of single products.

Manufacturing Downtime Tracking

  • As long as products are seen within the time frame that is less than the defined downtime period, the line is considered to be up and running and uptime is tracked.
  • Once the sensor fails to register a product after a user-defined amount of time, it starts tracking downtime until another product passes.
  • Timestamps and production count are recorded with the downtime records.

Production tracking

  • Production rate: The sensor calculates line rate in two ways: 1) As a measure when the line is running, and 2) Overall line rate including both uptime and downtime.
  • Total uptime and downtime: While the sensor tracks the time of each individual stop and production run, it also tracks total uptime and downtime since the last time the count was reset. A running total is always available.
  • Stop counts: Each time a production stop is identified, the stop count increases. The reset button will reset both the stop count and the production count.

Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)

  • For organizations focused on OEE, this sensor calculates OEE, based on uptime as a percentage of total time since the last count reset.

Wireless Installation & Data Transmission

  • By wirelessly transmitting production data to a gateway and monitoring software, gain instant visibility into production line monitoring, allowing supervisors and plant managers to monitor output, respond to downtime, and improve throughput.
  • Because the sensor must continuously detect state transitions, it remains powered at all times using a 12VDC supply (typically via 120V wall outlet transformer

The wireless production counter with downtime monitoring sensor is ideal for:

  • Real-time production monitoring and performance insights
  • Reliable counting sensor for conveyors and manufacturing lines
  • Data collection for production line monitoring systems and OEE tracking
  • Continuous production line monitoring for downtime detection with alerts
  • Dedicated production line counter for individual machines or lines
