The lean-stack take

For a lean team it turns a stop or a call for help into a visible signal and a timed record. Stop reasons and response times can then feed problem solving and daily reviews.

Best for

Plants that want andon buttons, tower lights and board displays tied to software that logs and escalates calls.

Watch out for

Check which hardware your lines need and how the system connects to your PLCs before asking for a quote.

Features

What Robato Andon Monitoring Software offers

01

Wireless andon calls

A wireless andon system page covers raising calls from workstations. This supports the jidoka habit of stopping to flag a problem as it happens.

02

Tower light integration

Andon tower light pages, including a cloud-connected tower light, cover linking signal towers to the software. Machine and line status then shows on the floor.

03

Andon board displays

An andon board display system shows line status on screens, which supports visual management at the line and in the supervisor's area.

04

PLC and counter signals

The andon software page describes connecting counters and PLC signals as well as buttons, so machine events can raise calls without an operator.

05

Escalation and response times

Calls escalate when supervisors do not respond, according to the vendor's andon software page. Response times are tracked, which shows where support is slow.

06

Stop reasons and downtime

Stop reasons are logged, and a separate production downtime monitoring system covers downtime tracking. This gives the data for a Pareto of losses.

07

OEE and production monitoring

Robato also lists an OEE monitoring system and a cloud production monitoring system. These can extend andon data into loss analysis.

08

Production counter app

A production counter Android app is listed for counting output from a phone or tablet. It is a separate product from the andon software.
