Sandvik Coromant has launched a new CoroPlus MachiningInsights aiming to make the manufacturing workshops more efficient and profitable by using digital solutions for monitoring of equipment utilisation.
Indian customers will gain benefit from this new age solution to increase efficiency which would further result in profitability. More than a monitoring system, the solution gathers data, calls attention to issues and provides the insights required to take action. It is an easily attainable step for manufacturers that are looking to reduce waste in production and make a smooth transition into a digital way of working.
For many manufacturers and workshops, knowing when a machine has stopped – and identifying the underlying reason for the stoppage – can be a major challenge and digital solutions are creating new possibilities to overcome this issue. Replacing the traditional ways of manual tracking, manual data aggregation and manual time studies, collecting data directly from a connected machine tool as well as from operators makes it possible to visualise the machine and even tool efficiency utilisation levels and create improvements within the factory.
Sunil Joshi, VP, Sandvik Coromant, South and East Asia, said, “Indian manufacturers will be able to make substantial efficiency gains from this digital solution through the ability to analyse equipment utilisation and act to optimise production processes. The analysis itself is facilitated by digital connectivity and by adding the capability of operator input into the system, Sandvik Coromant has ensured that there are also opportunities for increased collaboration and greater efficiency by combining data from the operator with data from the machine.”
Transparency is ensured through the visualisation being carried out online and therefore, accessible by a web browser. This means there is no need for a complicated IT project to get up and running and there is a rapid and simple method of incorporating digital manufacturing intelligence into a production site to drive improvements.
With this offer now Sandvik Coromant yellow coats would not only be able to provide quality machine and tool data but will also be able to suggest improvements of increasing efficiency through their solutions.
