FAMOUS - The data collection center of your production facility
FAMOUS is the virtual data collection center for all process and machine data relevant to manufacturing. It provides a complete overview of the current status of your plant and/or processes.
Its integrated first-class analysis functionality combined with Data Warehouse greatly simplifies and accelerates the identification of sources of time loss.
The FAMOUS Factory Monitoring & Analysing System represents a new generation of software: The scalability, multi-dimensional evaluation/analyses, easy operation, and modern web technology are among this first-choice software's outstanding features.
FAMOUS systematically monitors, analyzes and documents manufacturing processes. This enables early detection and minimization of weak points, risks, threats, and quality losses in production facilities.

Optimization prior to investment
GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR PRODUCTION
The central challenges to the manufacturing industry today are the accelerating pulse of "time to market" cycles, rising costs, and increasingly shorter delivery times. To meet these market demands, companies are required to optimize resource utilization and continuously improve crucial production parameters such as plant efficiency, availability, performance, OEE, and quality standards.
INCREASE PLANT EFFICIENCY BEFORE YOU INVEST
Studies by the renowned "International TPM Institute, Inc." confirm that production plants without continuous optimization achieve an average efficiency of only 65%. The responsible causes could be quickly identified: The poor results were primarily due to the often neglected down times.
REDUCE SOURCES OF TIME LOSS
Time is money. You might think that your manufacturing capacities are exhausted and thus consider investing in additional equipment or expanding your production line? But why not instead reduce down times caused by machine standstills (dead time), idle or set-up times, rejects, reworking, etc.? You will be surprised how much time-saving potential you will discover.

FAMOUS...
...always on target
FAMOUS visualizes and locates down times as well as their specific conditions - at individual machines, work places, production lines, departments or plants.
... analyzes accurately
In order to increase performance, the current plant efficiency needs to be identified first. The optimization process starts by determining the current plant status in order to obtain a clear view of step-by-step improvements.
...operates multi-dimensionally
FAMOUS offers a cost-efficient tool enabling you to systematically trace, collect, and analyze all production, process, and machine data. This supports comprehensive evaluations of production processes. FAMOUS highly effectively provides current key performance data, for example, concerning availability, performance rate, quality rate, and OEE. Individual queries provide additional information for evaluations of any production level.
...simulates without risk
Planned optimization can be simulated and pre-tested using FAMOUS without having to interrupt ongoing production processes. Thus experiments during current production can be avoided.
...is quickly ready to run
Extensive presettings in FAMOUS enable quick and cost-effective implementation.
...is scalable
The modular structure of FAMOUS and its possible integration into existing DP applications enables you to start out with a smaller system and then gradually scale it up to to the meet rising requirements.

FAMOUS MAKES EFFICIENCY MEASURABLE
ALWAYS UP TO DATE
Successful manufacturing enterprises increasingly resort to "bottom up" planning based on capacity data in production. This means that quick answers with up-to-date data are required.
DO YOU ALSO HAVE OPEN QUESTIONS CONCERNING YOUR CURRENT PRODUCTION?
How has the quality developed compared to the last quarter of the year? How much reworking was required by each team? How have the key quality data changed for the individual products? How much waste was produced per product, shown by manufacturing plants? What was the production output of late shifts? How did the availability change over the last few months? Which disturbances are most frequent in which shift? What is the production capacity? What is required to complete an additional order in the desired time?
