Reality check

A demo shows what may be possible. These points help judge whether the product fits day-to-day use.

Works well when
  • High-volume, repeatable production with measurable cycle times
  • Processes with stable PLC, fixtures and quality rules
  • Projects with planned downtime and a capable integrator
What to check
  • Changeover, maintenance and line-recovery procedures
  • Interfaces to PLC, MES, WMS and safety systems
  • Acceptance criteria tied to throughput and defect rate
Not a magic solution
  • A shortcut around an unstable production process
  • A reason to optimize only for theoretical uptime
  • A project without a maintenance owner
