Modularity PM TOOLKIT: A guide to basic and advanced features for effective production management

In modern manufacturing companies, it is crucial to have an accurate overview of production efficiency, downtime, and production quality.

However, many companies face the same problem – they either lack detailed data, or they obtain it late and process it inefficiently. So how do you ensure continuous production monitoring, accurate data collection, and effective management of production processes?

The solution is the modular PM TOOLKIT system, which allows companies to automate data collection, analyze production performance, and flexibly customize functionality according to their needs.

PM TOOLKIT: A solid foundation for effective production management

Every manufacturing company needs to control machine performance, production quality and minimize downtime. PM TOOLKIT, even in its basic version, offers features that allow companies to monitor and optimize their production processes in real time.

BASIC MODULES

  • OEE Monitoring – The module allows you to track key metrics such as downtime, availability, performance and production quality, providing a comprehensive overview of the performance of the production process, including an overview of hourly stability. It is suitable for companies that need detailed data to increase efficiency.
  • KPI Manager – Helps monitor production progress, analyze production cycles and product quality. Allows tracking of key performance indicators at every step of the production process.
  • Reporting – Automated report and dashboard generation gives managers quick access to an overview of production performance without the need for paper documents. Paperless communication is a fundamental element of modern production management.
  • Operational log – Allows you to record all important notes related not only to the production process, but also to record suggestions for improvement or other necessary information.
  • Requests – The system allows you to enter online requests for the removal/import of materials, the call for a truck or a competent person.

ADVANCED MODULES

PM TOOLKIT from INSEKO offers a number of advanced features that can be customized for each business. These modules are designed to support various production processes. At the same time, they allow you to expand the basic setup options according to the specific needs of your company.

  • Digital Information Boards – A module for visual production management, providing remote management and displaying key information on LED screens. It allows data transformation into XSLX reports with automatic sending or exporting of KPIs, remote setting of displayed data – time intervals, machines, language or update period. It offers predefined gadgets (online production, OEE, days without accidents, work shift countdown, etc.) and the ability to create your own.
  • SMED Module – Optimizes machine setup during production changes, reducing downtime and increasing efficiency. Analyzes each step of a machine setup and identifies opportunities to eliminate, move or streamline it. It also allows comparison of step durations between operators, helping to standardize the process and increase production efficiency.
  • Online product control QUALITY – Monitors the quality of production and selected production parameters of each product during production.
  • TPV (technical production planning) – Provides detailed analysis of production cycles in real time.
  • Autonomous Maintenance – Automates maintenance processes, improving the reliability of production equipment based on defined inspection, cleaning, and lubrication steps performed by the machine operator.
  • Alarms – Comprehensive escalation of arising conditions with the possibility of notifications via email, SMS, notifications in the PMT application and visualization. Monitoring of system, application, process and user-defined conditions, such as lack of disk space, non-functional communication, OEE below the limit, long undefined downtimes or overperformance above 50% for more than 10 minutes.
  • Documentation module – Allows you to store and manage technical documentation and drawings, work instructions and procedures for individual production steps, and other necessary materials.
  • Training – A system of training and certification of workers to ensure their readiness for new processes.
  • Workplace handover – Allows you to track the execution of important control steps when taking over a workplace between operators.
  • Electricity consumption – Allows you to calculate the price of energy consumed per product or order and supports billing between multiple devices. Integrated data on energy consumption and prices allows for flexible cost calculation and import of monthly spot prices. Graphical display of consumption provides clear analyses.
  • QR / Barcodes, Packaging, Printing, Scales – Product and packaging code integration, weighing system management and label printing.
  • ERP integration – Connection with ERP systems for comprehensive optimization of production and management of the entire company.
  • Tracking serial numbers and batches – We enable recording serial numbers/batches for a selected product or order upon input and output and verifying data within two-way MES-ERP communication.
