Packing line intelligence

Production visibility
where the work happens

A shop-floor production dashboard that turns live packing-line data into clear, immediate information for operators, supervisors and production teams.

The challenge

Production data existed. Visibility did not

Operators needed a simple way to understand packing-line performance without navigating multiple systems or reports.

The objective was to bring production, machine state, quality and shift information together on a display that could remain visible throughout the working day and continue behaving predictably during connectivity issues.

What operators see

The line in real time. One clear view

The display prioritises the information operators need most: production pace, shift progress, downtime, quality and emerging exceptions.

How it works

From machine signal to operator insight

A lightweight industrial data flow converts machine signals into meaningful production information and presents it through an always-visible kiosk interface.

01

Machine & sensor data

Production counters, machine state and quality signals are exposed through a structured data interface.

02

Operational aggregation

Raw signals are transformed into shift metrics, production status, OEE and actionable line information.

03

Kiosk-first interface

The dashboard is designed specifically for unattended, always-visible displays on the production floor.

04

Resilient operation

Connectivity checks, retry logic and stale-data handling keep the display understandable when infrastructure is unavailable.

Interface snapshots

Designed for distance readability

Large hierarchy, high-contrast states and concise KPI framing make the interface easy to understand from the shop floor.

Reporting & performance history

From live status to long-term performance insight

The same production platform extends beyond the shop-floor display with structured reporting across time periods, shifts and historical OEE performance.

01

Multi-level production reporting

Production information can be analysed from the current moment through to long-term historical periods.

  • Realtime, hourly and daily views
  • Monthly and yearly reporting
  • Shift-based performance analysis
02

Period & shift comparison

Teams can compare equivalent operating periods to identify changes in output, quality and overall line performance.

  • Day-to-day comparison
  • Shift-to-shift comparison
  • Month-to-month comparison
03

OEE history & comparison

Historical OEE data makes performance development visible over time and helps teams separate one-off events from recurring losses.

  • OEE performance history
  • Historical period comparison
  • Availability, performance and quality trends
Beyond the live screen

One platform for operators and continuous improvement

The kiosk supports immediate decisions on the production floor, while reporting and comparison views give supervisors and management the historical context needed to understand trends, benchmark shifts and focus improvement efforts.

Manomay contribution

Engineering the complete display solution

The project combined industrial data understanding, application engineering and kiosk deployment into one operational solution.

Field resilience

Designed to fail gracefully

A production display must remain understandable even when the network, API or kiosk device does not behave perfectly. Recovery behaviour was therefore designed as part of the system, not added afterwards.

Controlled startup

The kiosk verifies that the application and required resources are reachable before starting the dashboard.

  • Connectivity verification before launch
  • Clear status feedback while waiting
  • Automatic continuation after recovery

Continuous operation

Once running, the dashboard continues refreshing while clearly indicating when data becomes unavailable or stale.

  • Periodic live-data refresh
  • Stale-data warning state
  • Automatic version and recovery checks
Technical foundation

Modern web technology. Industrial intent

The implementation uses a focused web stack selected for fast deployment, clear maintainability and reliable kiosk behaviour.
