Wintriss Controls Group has added flexible and affordable purchase options for ShopFloorConnect® OEE, Production Tracking, and Data Collection software, which allows users to quickly and easily leverage data from their machines.
ShopFloorConnect is an on-premises software solution that provides timely, accurate, and unbiased data directly from the shop floor for making informed management decisions. Wintriss received a positive response when it debuted the new start-up purchase packages and options at FABTECH 2024. It will also be presenting the packages at PACK EXPO 2024, Booth # LU-8431 McCormick Place, Chicago Illinois from November 3 – 6 this year.
ShopFloorConnect is scalable and well-suited for manufacturers in a variety of industries, including metalforming and metal fabrication, machining, injection molding, discrete manufacturing, packaging, food, beverage, and more. The software provides valuable OEE calculations that accurately report overall equipment effectiveness for even the most complex manufacturing environments, and unlike cloud data solutions, customers fully own their data.
“We are excited to give customers more options to start using ShopFloorConnect, providing affordable ways for quickly gaining confidence and trust in its capabilities,” said Jim Finnerty, Product Manager, Wintriss Controls Group. “Taking advantage of the significant benefits of data collection and production monitoring is now easier than ever, and initial training is included with every new installation.”
ShopFloorConnect is available in three customizable purchase packages, depending on customer requirements for features, capabilities, and number of users. The range of starting packages includes two annual subscription-based packages -- “Lite” for up to 20 users and “Pro” which is multi-site capable with unlimited users. A full “Enterprise” purchase with a maintenance agreement is also offered for the most comprehensive setup.
All purchase options include ShopFloorConnect Equipment Summary and Performance Tracker functions. The Tool Tracker, Scheduler, Maintenance Tracker, and APIs are available in the Pro and Enterprise options. Reporting, Alerts, and External Displays are available in limited quantities in the Lite package and unlimited in Pro and Enterprise.
There are multiple hardware interface options for any ShopFloorConnect setup. Choose between any assortment of the SmartPAC 2 or SmartPAC PRO automation press controls, the ShopFloorConnect Machine Interface (SMI 2), and the new cost-efficient ShopFloorTracker device for your data collection needs.
