Industry 4.0

• Those productive machines that allow it can be connected. It is mainly designed for machining centers.

• It has to be understood as a complement to the PQM system. The method of working with the PQM system must first be matured.

• Capture data and machine parameters during the machining process.

• Comparing these parameters with the variation in machining conditions allows processes to be improved and productivity increased.

• Monitoring of the machining status of the machine at the current moment.

• Statistics of the state of the machine by day and by hours. Time that has been machining, in preparation etc.

• Machine performance in different shifts or types of work.

• Measurement process.

• Process for determining machining strategies for possible improvement.

• Improvement process.

• Detailed times of the manufacture of a piece. Cutting times, G1, G0, tool change, etc.

• Machining power with every tool.

• Number of times the tool changes and how long it takes in each case.

• Time in which the machine is actually machining.

• Total manufacturing times for a part.

• Optimum power of the tool. Determine if the tool is used at optimal power or can be raised for next parts.

• Change process, minimize operations, use different tools, different machining strategies and find the optimal process.
