Hi everyone.
I would like to hear everyone's input on Production/Process Monitoring Software.
We want to see real time data on the production floor. We also want to do process monitoring, so if a parameter is entered wrong from a standard someone gets notified. Recording and analyzing the data is also a must. We need to be able to store the data and analyze what is causing the most downtime, scrap, etc.
So far we have looked at Mattec, IQMS, Plantstar, custom Monitoring software (GE, Wonderware, AB, Ignition).
Mattec: Looks okay, but $$$$$$
IQMS: No info yet
Plantstar: Looks dated, not sure if their process monitoring works well, no software to analyze data.
Custom: You get what you want, but integrators have little experience with IMMs
Anyone else use a system that works well and is fairly affordable? Let me know what you guys think. Thanks.
