Accelerate your productivity with WebMIS from Rexroth - a comprehensive tool for the recording, visual presentation and optimization of operational and production data.

This web-based analysis tool includes a multitude of pre-configured analysis graphics and tables for the analysis of weaknesses and machine optimization. With the aid of the joint recording of machine signals, stoppage causes and fault messages, machine or plant failures can be identified any time. In the process, it is made immediately clear whether the fault is a technical one or an organizational one, thus permitting the rapid localization and remedy of interference and bottlenecks. The recorded data can be presented either on a machine-specific basis or in comparison with several machines. Thanks to the production of machine indices such as OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness), for example, or utilization ratio and availability, the entire production network is made transparent and can be optimized with selective measures. The long-term monitoring of machine signals and presentation in the form of trend curves permits the clear identification of trending and the continuous improvement of production. Maintenance personnel can also use these long-term measurements for timely predictive maintenance work, thereby eliminating expensive non-production times.

Permanent analysis of process operations in this way permits the identification of weaknesses in production and the achievement of major increases in machine availability.

Thanks to the standardized control system interface (OPC) and data storage system (MSDE/SQL) this solution is suitable for universal use that is independent of the machine. With virtually unlimited scalability, it is possible for data to be acquired and presented - from a single machine to an entire production system. The web-based user interface offers optimized screens that display analysis graphics on any computer in the machinery network. Online diagnostic functions and clear configuration menus provide support for the installer when setting up the networked system and therefore offer a high level of operating convenience - not only for analysis, but from the very beginning of commissioning.

WebMIS was developed on the basis of international standards and is therefore capable of straightforward integration in all machine networks (Ethernet TCP/IP). Data is acquired on the machines at all times - even in the case of network failure, thanks to a buffer on the local controller computer.

IndraControl VPP series terminals integrate the industrial computer, operator panel and visual display into a single, compact unit. Specifically designed for rugged industrial applications, they offer long-lasting, trouble free operation. Built-in UPS system, shock-mounted hard disk, and imaging software reduces the risk of data loss to a minimum.

Integrated UPS logic
The integrated UPS logic ensures that production continues uninterrupted. In addition to analyzing the remaining voltage in the rechargeable batteries, it also analyses the processor temperature and monitors the speed of the fan, the voltage, and much more.

Rugged and reliable
We chose highly reliable internal components. As an example, the devices have been specially designed to ensure that the hard disk is resistant to shocks of up to 15 g and vibrations of up to 1 g.
