AI-Powered FactoryOps

Guidewheel SOLUTION OVERVIEW

Increase production from existing assets

Install in hours. Results in days. The fastest way to improve factory operations and fill in the blind spots on the factory floor. Utilize real-time data from your equipment to track essential metrics, including overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), machine utilization, downtime events, changeover times, and production output.

Unlock team productivity with factory-floor insights

Give every team member real-time performance data tailored to their role. Show teams on the floor how they're performing with live scoreboards so they make adjustments to stay on track. Configure alerts to notify employees about issues that need their attention so they can act quickly to resolve them.

Reduce energy consumption

Reduce energy costs and intensity by understanding energy consumption by machine and SKU. Improve data-driven asset planning with machine-level energy insights to help accurately project capital needs and validate energy efforts.

Guidewheel captures real-time factory floor data with non-invasive sensors. Sensor data is sent to Guidewheel’s cloudbased platform and posted into CONNECT through Guidewheel’s secure open APIs. Once in CONNECT, Guidewheel data can be combined with other data inputs down to the machine and SKU level. Here is a breakdown of Guidewheel data types that can be integrated with CONNECT:

• Machine uptime (hours or percent)
• Energy consumption 
• Production counts
• Cycle times and cycle counts
• Downtime events
• Downtime issues
• Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)
