Install a ZentONE system to measure the performance of your first machine and obtain objective and continuous information about its production.

• Measure production, rejections and downtime in real time.

• Automatically calculate the General Efficiency of the Equipment (OEE).

• Record and visualize machine data locally, without relying on the corporate network or the cloud.

• It doesn't matter the type of machine, its age or level of automation.

• ZentONE is installed in a few minutes without modifying the machines.

Once you have reliable machine data, the next step is to connect that information with your enterprise management system (ERP) to synchronize production planning and execution.

ZentOPS is a software module that connects ZentONE's real-time information with the company's ERP, without the need for a traditional MES system. 

With ZentOPS you can:

• Send and receive order information directly with your ERP using standard communication mechanisms such as REST API or Webhooks

• Allow the operator to select and manage the active production order on a digital workstation.

• Automate the link between actual production and planning.

Once the system is validated on one machine, you can quickly replicate it on other machines for a fully digital view of your plant's production.

• Install a ZentONE system with ZentOPS on each machine.

• Add new ZentNode adapters to digitize specific signals such as temperatures, pressures, consumption or vibrations

• Analyze the performance of each machine, batch, operator, shift or type of product and easily identify opportunities for improvement

Measurement of energy, water and raw materials consumption

• Counts pulses and converts them to liters, m3 or Kw/h

• Generate alerts by MQTT and/or activate output if consumption deviates from the defined limits

Parts counter, speed or production times

• Calculate maximum, minimum and average values in the defined time interval

• Generate alerts by MQTT and/or activate output if the values deviate from the defined limits (e.g. machine stop or elevated cycle time)

Monitoring of 0-10V (AL) or 4-20mA (ALC) analog signals such as level, pressure or temperature

• Filters and converts the signal to engineering units

• Calculate maximum, minimum and average values in the defined time interval

• Generate alerts by MQTT (LowLow, Low, High, HighHigh) with configurable deadband

Measurement of energy, water and raw materials consumption

• Counts pulses and converts them to liters, m3 or Kw/h

• Generate alerts by MQTT and/or activate output if consumption deviates from the defined limits

Measurement of energy consumption using standard current transformers with 4-20 mA output.

• Calculate maximum, minimum and average values in the defined time interval.

• Generates MQTT alerts if energy consumption deviates from the defined limits.

Monitoring of machine vibrations according to ISO-10816 standard, using vibration sensors with 4-20 mA output.

• Calculate maximum, minimum and average values in the defined time interval.

• Generates MQTT alerts if the vibration of the machine deviates from the limits according to the ISO-10816 standard.

I/O Adapter with two 24VDC channels configurable as Input or Output independently

• • The status of the I/S channels is published to the MQTT Topic in the designated Broker

  • The outputs are activated according to the state of the MQTT Topic subscribed to the Broker

Typical Applications

• • Monitoring and remote control of actuators (motors, pumps...)

  • Reading of local warning signs (lack of material, machine stop...)

  • Digitization of operator panels

ZentNode is easy to install and maintain

• Without programming controllers

• Without modifying the machines

• Without configuring networks or drivers

ZentNode uses TLS encryption to ensure data integrity and to protect your installation from possible cyber attacks

The use of standard protocols guarantees compatibility of your applications for production management.

ZentNode can be applied to all types of machines, regardless of their age or control technology.
