We are here to help monitor and make sense of your machine data

Manufacturing companies in 14 different industries use Evocon. The most popular production output that our system registers are pieces and boxes. But the system can also monitor running meters, liters, productive work time and flow production. And even though all companies have a slightly unique production process, we can always find a suitable solution.

To learn more about how to monitor production with Evocon and what hardware you need, read our article: How to Monitor Production and Track OEE Using Evocon?

There are multiple options to connect production signals from your machines to Evocon. The most common way is a new industrial sensor. You can also use a sensor that is already available on your production line or machine. Another standard method is to use a PLC output connection using a relay (e.g. with Andon lights). These signals connect to Evocon’s IIoT device that sends the captured data to our cloud server in AWS.

If you have machines that already collect production data to a local database, then we can set up Evocon as a hardware-free solution (data transfer is via HTTPS API requests).

In general, the hardware you need to collect data from machines or production lines using Evocon is:

1. Evocon’s IIoT device (used to log production signals)
2. Ethernet cable
3. Sensor or relay
4. A display device (PC or tablet)

The final solution depends on your production process but you can learn more from here: What Hardware You Need and Does Evocon Provide It?

The process of setting up Evocon takes only a few days and consists of three steps:

1. Contact us, so we can learn more about your production process and suggest a viable, reliable solution for you.
2. We send the necessary hardware via courier and provide follow-up instructions.
3. Upon delivery, all your team will have to do is complete the installation by following the simple instructions provided.

When ongoing support is ever required, we’ll provide it free via phone or email.

OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) is a lean manufacturing tool and universal best practice to monitor, evaluate and improve the effectiveness of a production process. This could be an assembly line, machine cell, packaging line, filling machine, CNC machine, or any other production equipment.

We use OEE because it helps us understand our production process.  By quantifying and visualizing all losses from our production line and machines, OEE not only shows what we produced with our resources but also what we could have produced. In other words, OEE helps us understand the true potential of our factories.
