Honeywell LETS factory reporting software
uses the latest technology to collect production
data, including Overall Equipment Effectiveness
(OEE) from every machine in your factory.
LETS Features:
Can collect data from any machine
Uses your existing Ethernet (including
wireless)
Open architecture allows for
communications with external software
Collect Data from All of Your
Machines
LETS is a state-of-the-art data collection
package that is scalable and flexible. LETS
comes factory-configured to talk to the Wintriss
LETS Machine Interface and
SmartPAC 1 & 2, however its OPC Server
back-end features a wide range of available
"Plug-in" device drivers and components for the
industrial market. This allows us to modify LETS
to communicate with virtually every machine in
your shop.
LETS Scheduling The new scheduling module for LETS
allows you to create a queue of jobs to run in
each machine. Using a web browser interface, you
simply select the appropriate part number(s) or
tool number and enter the quantity of parts
required. You may optionally enter a job number
and/or due date for each job.
Once a schedule is created, LETS
automatically sends the “next job” information
to the control on the machine. When it’s time to
run the next job, the machine operator simply
selects “Load Next Job” and the information,
including the good parts counter preset, is
retrieved from LETS and loaded into the
control. The top item in the schedule is then
automatically “consumed” and the queue moves up.
LETS predicts the completion time/date for
each job in the queue with an industry-best
algorithm that analyzes real-time as well as
historical changeover and production data. LETS
alerts you whenever job completion is due to
occur later than the due date. The scheduling
module features a simple intuitive interface
that allows you to edit job parameters and
reposition jobs within the queue.
LETS also supports group scheduling. When you
have two or more machines capable of running the
same jobs, LETS enables you to create a
prioritized list of jobs that are available to
all of the machines in the group at once.
Whenever a machine in the group becomes
available, it is given the next job on the list,
and the list consumes. Group scheduling allows
you to maximize machine uptime and ensure that
the highest priority jobs get the highest
priority. When one or more machines in the group
go down for an extended period of time or
experience production delays, the jobs in the
queue are automatically rerouted to the
remaining machines.
No Special Client Software is Needed Many currently available data
collection packages require you to install
special software on all computers that need to
access production data. This is not the case
with LETS. If your computer has a web browser
and email client, you have all you need to take
full advantage of LETS capabilities - even from
remote locations (provided you have remote
access to your network).
How Does LETS Differ From Other Data
Collection Packages?
LETS is built from standard components
that can be customized
It can communicate with virtually any
production machine
It communicates with the machines via
Ethernet (wired or wireless)
It uses the Microsoft SQL database - not
Access
Shows real-time machine status in your
web browser
No client installs
LETS supports multi-plant installations
Open architecture allows data exchange
w/external systems
