Machine Data Collection

OEE or Overall Equipment Effectiveness data collection is performed by the FSWork^TM sofware. Multiple machines may be connected to each seat of FSWorks^TM. Machine information such as run, idle, down and parts counts can be communicated in any of these standard formats; RS232, TCP/IP, OPC, Digital I/O, Shared Files, MT-Connect^TM.
