- It enables you to easily connect to peripheral devices such as printers. There is no need to worry about selecting peripheral devices.
MES Interface Features.
- Operation Monitoring and Production Management Solutions.
Various types of information such as aggregation of production results, number of defects and stoppage factors are sent to the database using SQL statements from the V9 series through the V-Server. Communication with the database can be accomplished without a gateway PC or cumbersome programming.
- Programming not required.
By simply specifying the data to be stored in the database on V-SFT, you can communicate with the database without the need for programming.
- Prevents data loss.
If transmission fails, it will produce an error log, so you do not have to worry about losing important data.
- Reduces system load.
When various conditions are fulfilled, data can be transmitted from the V9 series. It reduces the load on the system by eliminating the need for constant monitoring on the higher-level side.
(MES:Manufacturing Execution System) This “Manufacturing Execution System” has been designed to optimize quality, production volume, delivery time, and cost as a management and production control system for manufacturing sites.
Fuji Electric, HMI panel usability and graphics.
