Maximize Fastening Tool Effectiveness and Save Money with Manufacturing Execution System Control

The MES or MOM system is central to deciphering and creating actions from all the manufacturing data being received (monitored), in order to act (control and alert) in real time accordingly, and in order to output the granularity of manufacturing, or Andon data, essential to maximizing quality and production output (OEE) and optimizing process step cycle time. Therefore as proven and recommended, consider the MES system to be the primary focus in your plans to improve manufacturing processes, and as the starting point for your new project; because the tools and devices you connect to the network are secondary in the over-all manufacturing optimization scope of things; the fastening tools will serve their basic purpose to accept inputs and transmit outputs to the MES, the vital data needed for the manufacturing execution system to verify and command processes. The elimination of the need to spend additional money for unrequired features on fastening tools is notable, since so long as the fastening tool has a built in transducer it can be paired quite effectively via open protocol to communicate with the MES to ensure error-proofing in fastening operations is never compromised.
