  • 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:
