See How machiNetCloud IIoT Solution is Improving Machine Tool OEE at IMTS 2022

ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL, September 2, 2022 - 

As the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) continues to grow and evolve, shops can more accurately and easily create leaner operations. Shibaura Machine’s IIoT solution, machiNetCloud, will be on display and available for demonstration at the upcoming International Manufacturing & Technology Show (Booth 339430, South Hall) to show attendees a new way to approach improving productivity, reducing downtime, and increasing overall equipment efficiency (OEE).

IIoT is Improving Machine Tool Performance 

Leveraging Shibaura Machine’s IIoT solution, machiNetCloud, allows unrestricted secure access to real-time machine data. This data, whether for a single or multiple machine tools, provides valuable insights to plant personnel. machiNetCloud’s Customer Portal provides a suite of applications to allow shops a dependable and secure way to measure and track this data at their fingertips. These applications allow managers to review key performance indicators in a secure setting to show the operating status of a single machine or entire factory, even in remote locations. 

With remote access, machine tools can be connected securely to remote technicians. Technicians anywhere can immediately access the HMI of machine controls for remote troubleshooting and access machine operational data of any equipment in the cell. Alerts can notify both remote technicians and internal users via email or SMS if operational setpoint deviations, production changes, or maintenance reminders occur. This proactive “remote-enabled” troubleshooting approach can drastically improve First Time Fix Rate, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
