Digital shift log
In many manufacturing companies, the shift log is still maintained in Excel. LUMINAQ turns it into an end-to-end digital process – including machine data.
The starting point
Employees document production orders, operations, produced quantities, special incidents or completed quality inspections. Information about staff on shift, setup procedures or anomalies is also often entered manually.
Much of this information already exists in different systems – for example in ERP, production data acquisition (PDA), machine controls or quality solutions. Other information originates directly on the shop floor and is not captured digitally at all today.
At the same time, many companies do not yet run systems such as CAQ or PDA. This is exactly where LUMINAQ comes in.
The solution with LUMINAQ
With the LUMINAQ platform, a digital shift log emerges that connects existing data sources and adds missing functions.
Existing data sources integrated
Production data, orders, quality information and other data sources can be taken over from existing systems into an end-to-end digital shift log.
Machine and IoT events included automatically
Information from machine controls – such as downtimes, error messages or operating states – can be taken over automatically and made visible in the shift log.
Shop floor events captured directly
Anomalies, quality inspections, setup procedures or special events can be documented right where they occur.
Functions even without existing systems
Where systems such as PDA or CAQ do not exist yet, the corresponding functions can be provided directly through LUMINAQ – without additional software projects.
This is what it can look like – yours looks like your process.
Building blocks in use
ERP, PDA, machine controls and quality software automatically deliver what they know – orders, quantities, states, events.
All events of a shift converge in one log – unambiguously assigned to order, machine and shift.
Special incidents directly trigger processes: quality case, action, handover to the next shift.
Captured on a tablet or terminal on the line, analysed on the desktop – the same data, the right interface.
The result
A transparent digital shift log that uses existing systems, adds missing functions and fully reflects the real production process.
Employees only capture what systems do not know – everything else is already there.
