FREEDOM eLOG™ YOUR GPS FOR PROFITABLE MANUFACTURING

Running smoothFor manufacturers, there’s nothing more satisfying than steady, high-quality,

profitable output. When your entire production system is running smooth,

clean and fast. We all know how even a small event – anywhere along the

production chain – can cause that system to slow down. Or worse, to stop.

And yet, pinpointing and identifying the cause can be tedious, time-

consuming, elusive and costly. Until now.

Quickly Identify Problems and Improve ProductivityFreedom eLOG gives you the data you need to better manage your machine

tool investment, and maximize your productivity. An affordable, intuitive and

easy-to-integrate application, it collects and reports the performance data of

your entire plant’s production assets. It addresses the need to communicate

and understand machine tool availability, utilization, and performance, as

a basis for objective corrective action. By providing intuitive data mining

capabilities and automated functions, Freedom eLOG allows you to recognize

patterns and trends, enabling you to better manage the operation of your

equipment and increase your productivity.

Productivity reports are available on-line for operators, supervisors and

engineers. This information can be used to optimize equipment, programs and

schedules for around-the-clock operation. Easy-to-read charts and graphs

are supported by detailed information. Users can set up automated reports and

instant notification of critical events via e-mail or cell phone text messages.

Clicking on any element of a chart reveals the events that produced that

element; clicking on any event reveals yet more detail. The intuitive user

interface makes it easy to mine down to whatever level of detail is needed.

The Event List report enables you to analyze all events within each of

the AMT groupings and quickly identify causes of non-productive time

in the factory.

The machines shown are examples. Actual machines may vary based on selected options. Subject to change without notice.
