your benefits
SmartMONITOR is the smart MDC (machine monitoring and data collection) option for industrial companies looking for a way to collect reliable data quickly and easily to optimise their manufacturing processes. Intelligent networking of signal towers creates a simple, low-cost and retrofittable alternative to conventional, complex MDE systems.
SmartMONITOR is a visualisation and motivation system for your employees that fully supports your lean production processes. It reports all relevant data from all machines, systems and manual workstations quickly and easily at the touch of a button. Reaction times are significantly accelerated, the manufacturing process is optimised and users are informed of downtimes in real time. All relevant data is displayed at a glance on the central control station. This enables the persons concerned to create individual, paperless reports using the shop floor management system.

10% increase in efficiency – but how?
Marquardt GmbH turns every signal tower into an MDC system
"After only a short time, the renowned automotive supplier saw a 10% increase in efficiency compared to the previous system. It didn't take long to improve performance."
Marc Mächtel, MVP (Marquardt improvement process) officer at Marquardt.
Marquardt GmbH from Rietheim-Weilheim has made the leap forward to lean management with a simple trick. The mechatronics specialist has turned every existing signal tower into a modern machine data collection system (MDC system). The innovative call-for-action system forms the basis for daily evaluations in the shop floor management system and creates maximum transparency in production.
Continental connects logistics conveyor technology using WERMA solutions
“Because we use the just-in-sequence principle, every minute saved by receiving malfunction reports earlier on along the transport route is valuable."
Mathias Meier, Team Coordinator for Industrial Engineering at Continental
Continental Regensburg uses an innovative and smart system to guarantee maximum transparency over the entire transport route: every industrial truck carries a signal tower with a wireless-based signalling system. This reports any malfunctions in real time to prompt an immediate response. This saves time and money and ensures that the logistics process is optimised and transparent.
Ketterer turns every signal tower into a machine monitoring and data collection system
Performance up by 20% thanks to SmartMONITOR
Initially, SmartMONITOR was launched in a section containing nine automatic lathes: "This was our 'lighthouse project'. After an immediately visible and great success, SmartMONITOR was successively extended to the other areas."
Julian Markon, Assistant Production Manager and Lean Manager at Ketterer
It is essential that machine operators can see the status of every machine and lathe directly to enable them to monitor and check the processes. Ketterer uses WERMA signal towers for this reason: WERMA signal towers are mounted on every machine in Markon’s area of responsibility. They indicate malfunctions quickly and unambiguously, allowing workers to visually monitor their line even from quite some distance.
