Live Machine Tool Monitoring Software with OEE Capability



Clarity has launched the latest version of its live machine tool monitoring system. Clarity PRO now includes an OEE Dashboard option in addition to the current Manager's Dashboard.

"Not only is Clarity PRO simpler to use for managers and operators, but the new OEE Dashboard feature will automatically calculate a shop's OEE during any time period," said a company spokesperson. "With Clarity PRO directly connected to the machine tool controls, improvements will be achieved by collecting and displaying live information throughout the shop and office." The machine tool status and utilization is displayed in real time on live dashboards. Remote site access adds more accessibility for owners/managers to manage and analyze operational efficiencies, from any location.

Co-founder Kevin Lesko explained, "Our latest version is designed to allow upper level management the opportunity to view their operation using the OEE calculation at the click of a button. Floor managers will continue to enjoy the current Manager's Dashboard display, while upper management can easily track past shop plant performance utilizing their own OEE display.

"Managing with our system is critical for any shop in becoming lean. Managers can focus on better utilization of equipment and personnel while monitoring the quality component.

"The Clarity PRO system was developed to help our own manufacturing business, which operates 24 hours a day, five days a week. We needed more accountability across our entire organization and visibility across each shift. These were key changes that transformed how we managed the entire plant. When we saw how much the system helped us manage work center utilization and personnel productivity, we realized it was too good to keep to ourselves."
