Plantnode exposes Real Time Performance Monitoring's
critical success factor: Machine Truth.

Plantnode trial delivers results.

Force 9 offers inexpensive short-term Plantnode trials to prove ROI to customers before they make the full commitment.  The results from these trials are always nothing short of dramatic! 

Idle time shown on ovehead displayMessages rotate on Plantnode's overhead display.

The reasons for this are twofold:

  1. Plantnode’s overhead display keeps everyone on their toes: management, shop supervision, operators and maintenance alike.
  2. Plantnode uniquely delivers Machine Truth, something most people never had before and the source of many surprises.

Machine Truth refers to 100% accurate data that focuses on-going improvement effort in exactly the right place.  The surprise is that the old, manually collected data misdirects efforts towards fixing problems you thought were the most important, not the really important issues that Plantnode identifies.

It’s all very well to have good data, but it is people that make things happen and this is where Plantnode’s overhead display delivers an instant downtime reduction.  As soon as it’s turned on you’ll see a step change in output and an immediate return on your investment. 

Nowhere was this more apparent than in a recent trial we ran.  Just like the managers with Plantnode running, we can watch what’s happening in real time from our own offices.  Lo and behold, the minute Plantnode’s overhead display was switched on, performance was seen to improve!
