NIS allows the control and monitoring of production efficiency, both in real time (Andon) and over a certain period (OEE).\\ \\ === How to Implement the NIS on-field === In order to implement a Next Improve System, you need the following devices: * An LED TV (we recommend at least a 40 inches TV) * A mini PC * A Touch Panel * A Barcode reader * A PLC\\ \\ For each production line, there will be a touch panel and an LED TV (The Andon board).\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:insieme-ott.jpg?1024| The NIS system}}\\ \\ \\ \\ The barcode reader connected to the touch panel will help the operator **change the production order** and, in case the PLC is missing, to **increase the number of pieces produced**.\\ The barcode reader is connected to the touch panel via a USB port, and the touch panel is connected to the system via ethernet cable.\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:touch-barcode.jpg?1024| how to wire a touch panel}}\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:touch-panel.jpg?1024| The barcode reader}}\\ \\ \\ \\ The Mini PC is connected to the LED TV via an HDMI port and is also connected to the system via an ethernet cable.\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:led-tv.jpg?1024| LED TV and mini PC}}\\ \\ \\ \\ The main difference compared to a line without a PLC concerns the signaling mode of the advancement of a piece: the PLC automatically sends a signal when the operator performs the last operation.\\ Another signal from the PLC indicates the status of the machine (Running/Not Running).\\ Each PLC can be connected to 4 machines as it is provided with 8 slots.\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:plc.jpg| The PLC}}\\ \\ \\ \\ Follow the procedure below for the correct connection of the devices: {{ :cli:franke:f1.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f2.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f3.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f4.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f5.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f6.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f7.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f8.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f9.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f10.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f11.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f12.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f13.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f14.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f15.png?800 |}} \\ \\ Instructions for TV setup: \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f16.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f17.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f18.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f19.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f20.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f21.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f22.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f23.png?800 |}} \\ \\ {{ :cli:franke:f24.png?800 |}} \\ \\ ===== Interfaces ===== ==== The LED TV (Andon Board) ==== The Andon board shows different data related to real-time production.\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:andon-green2.png?1024| The Andon Board interface}}\\ \\ \\ \\ === The Andon Board Interface === At the top of the page, a horizontal bar shows the sequence of stops of any type (programmed stop, maintenance stop, etc.).\\ In green, the runtime; in red the stop time, and in blue the scheduled stops.\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:barra.png?1024| the sequence of stops}}\\ \\ \\ \\ Let's see the meaning of each element: * At the top-left, there is the «**Production Order code**» currently ongoing. * At the top-right, there is the **date and time**. * **Takt-time**: is the time that each operator has to carry out its task. * **Expected items**: it represents the theoretical production. * **Produced items**: it represents the number of produced products, both goods and scraps. * **Remaining batch**: the number of remaining pieces in order to complete the entire lot production. * **Non-compliant items**: the number of parts not good (scrap items). * **OEE**: on the right, there is the OEE value expressed as a percentage, referred to the current shift. Single percentages are also specified for availability, speed, and quality.\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:elementi-interfaccia.png?1024| The Andon board interface}}\\ \\ \\ \\ Even the colors of some elements have a specific meaning.\\ **Green background**: the background is green when the number of "Expected items" (for the current production) is equal to the number of "Produced items".\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:andon-green2.png?1024| Green background}}\\ \\ \\ \\ **Yellow background**: the background is yellow when the number of "Expected items" (for the current production) is greater by one or two items compared to the number of "Produced items".\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:yellow2.png?1024| Yellow background}}\\ \\ \\ \\ **Red background**: the background is red when the number of "Expected items" (for the current production) is greater than the number of "Produced items" by three or more.\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:andon-red.png?1024| Red background}}\\ \\ \\ \\ Also, the "Non-compliant items" area has its background color. Now we see the meaning of these colors.\\ * **Green background**: there were non-scrap items. * **Yellow background**: there were one or two scrap items. * **Red background**: there were three or more scrap items.\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:non-compliant.png| Non-compliant items background}}\\ \\ \\ \\ Also, the box that hosts the percentage of OEE will appear with different colors. * **Green**: the percentage value is greater than 81%. * **Yellow**: the percentage value is between 71% and 80%. * **Red**: the percentage value is between 0 and 70%.\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:oee-percentage.png| OEE percentage}}\\ \\ \\ \\ These percentage values can be customized line by line, so they may differ from those shown in this guide. Likewise, the individual boxes of "Availability," "Speed," and "Quality" can take on different colors.\\ \\ ==== The Touch Panel ==== === The Touch Panel Interface === This is the interface of the touch panel.\\ The red, blue, yellow, and green areas are buttons that allow the operator to access certain functions.\\ \\ {{:cli:franke:cattura01.png?1024| The touch panel interface}}\\ \\ \\ \\ The "Scrap items" button provides access to a dialog box containing the datasheet of the quality loss causes.
