Let\u2019s take a closer look into these features by exploring what they entail alongside their benefits.<\/p>\n<p>At a high level, automation in the Digital Andon feature allows users to connect to their current devices on the shop floor. Since this doesn\u2019t require a complete overhaul of a manufacturing facility\u2019s infrastructure, the data collection process is seamless in transforming how users view and interpret key information.<\/p>\n<h2>Automation on the Manufacturing Floor<\/h2>\n<p>Alert scheduling, for example, is a Digital Andon capability that configures schedules for when users get alerted about text messages and emails. These notifications can then be escalated through multi-level management capabilities that bring issues to attention depending on how much time has passed and the priority levels.<\/p>\n<p>Since paging is automated, these alerts follow supported industrial protocols, enabling staff to focus on their main responsibilities as opposed to exhausting their efforts in scrutinizing whether or not protocols are being followed by their peers.<\/p>\n<h2>Accountability Without Downtime<\/h2>\n<p>In terms of accountability, the Digital Andon solution allows users to identify challenges, page the correct department and resolve those issues as quickly as possible. At the same instance, users can receive detailed tracking data without the need for machine downtime.<\/p>\n<p>The capability that allows for two levels of tracking means staff can track when pages are sent, viewed and reviewed by others. Meanwhile, detailed logs of these pages can continue to champion accountability by indicating the response and resolution times. Additionally, with the use of full-screen views, users can examine entire logs at a glance after receiving an alert.<\/p>\n<h2>Communication Across Multiple Departments<\/h2>\n<p>As for the communication capability of the Digital Andon feature, it can support various departments across a manufacturing facility. As a result, operators and key decision makers such as managers and executives can delegate tasks to the right people. It\u2019s through the multi-level support of up to five separate departments with different paging data that this can be accomplished.<\/p>\n<p>Customization tools are also useful in renaming default departments to names of one\u2019s choice, which further enable better communication. Further implementations that boost performance levels include sending page alerts through either text messages or emails.<\/p>\n<h2>Realign Your Goals With Shoplogix<\/h2>\n<p>Realigning the day-to-day goals of your manufacturing floor through smart factory tools is only one key step in digital transformation and plant-wide innovation.
