Sustainable Hot End process optimization through Data management

Smarter decisions that directly impact your production

BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE

Optimize and act smarter instantly

The glassware industry is challenged to optimize or re-design the use of it’s existing assets whilst improving it’s sustainability footprint. WALTEC introduces WTRACK to help you to achieve sustainable Hot End process optimization.

OPERATIONS INTELLIGENCE

Analyze, monitor and troubleshoot

WTRACK by WALTEC is a powerful modular solution driving process optimization and building process understanding. WTRACK can be integrated into existing operations platforms and is compatible with most common in house IT configurations. WTRACK upgrades your existing machine whilst taking WALTEC´s E-Generation technology to the next level.

Sustainable Hot End process optimization:

Modular Data Management by WALTEC

icon-w-track-line

WTRACK LINE creates transparency in a compact format

  • Data export in CSV format to any storage device
icon-w-track-remote

WTRACK REMOTE speeds up the process optimization dialogue in your company
  • On the move process information sharing
  • Control panel information from the machine shared via multimedia devices
  • Comes with Siemens software licence
  • Up to 10 user devices can be connected
icon-w-track-service

WTRACK SERVICE extends your machines lifecycle
  • Safe and Speedy key controlled Electronic access to control panel
  • Unique authorization levels embedded in individual operator keys
  • Maintenance jobs and working instructions popping up in operator panel
  • Pictures and other visuals guiding execution of maintenance jobs
  • Detailed logging and tracing of maintenance jobs
  • Data export in CSV format to any storage device for reporting
icon-w-track-logs

WTRACK LOG creates process transparency for production intelligence
  • Tracking and Tracing of changes in pre-defined values and settings
  • Recording process adjustments whilst in operation
  • Personalized pre-defined key access with multilayer authority levels
  • Tailormade key access available on request
  • Data export in CSV format to any storage device for reporting
icon-w-track-support

WTRACK SUPPORT reduces downtime and increases machine understanding
  • Fast trouble shooting and intervention
  • On the job process learning
  • Access online to WALTEC technical support
  • Shop floor error explanation supported by great photographic visualization

icon-w-track-pcs

WTRACK PCS empowers process optimization
  • Continuous measurement of key process parameters and machine performance
  • Measuring actual production values against preset recipe values
  • Immediate feedback of process adjustments
  • Ultimate process control
  • Data export in CSV format to any storage device for reporting

WTRACK LOG empowers process optimization. The module is logging authorization access, keys and parameter changes during life production.

WTRACK LINE retrieves data from the production-line. Sensors are continuously monitoring the availability of supply-services, the status of line-components as well as the performance starting with the shear cut and ending at the conveyer before packing. A strong interface collects the captured data in CSV format and exports these data easily into your in-house IT infrastructure and reporting systems.

WTRACK REMOTE is an intelligent on-line interface application enabling you to follow your process on multimedia devices such as computers, tablets and smartphones. On site or off site group information sharing facilitates organizational trouble shooting and problem solving in a time efficient manner.

WTRACK SERVICE module signals autonomously the required maintenance jobs at operator level via the control panel. This supported by clear operator instructions and great visuals for explanation. Maintenance execution and logging is traceable over time and linked 1:1 to a predefined unique operator access key carrying unique authorization levels.

WTRACK SUPPORT module connects your machine with Waltec‘s technical support team in Germany via a secure internet connection. On your request and only after your approval, our technical experts can access your machine’s sensor data, control panel, servo settings and control unit (CPU). As such helping you with trouble shooting and/or restarting production quickly again. The intervention process is protected by clearly defined safety and integrity protocols safeguarding your proprietary technology.

WTRACK PCS feeds your process control system (PCS) with predefined machine parameters and values related to Torque, Temperatures and Flows. Depending on the sensors installed, the module exports the available values each 60s into the PCS. Time frame customization is availiable on request.

WTRACK is compatible with all lines delivered since 2015, older lines require a WALTEC compatibility check.

The LINE module requires sensoric upgrading and minor electric adjustments. REMOTE, LOG and PCS modules require a connection to the company network. WTRACK LOG is available as stand alone version or in combination with SUPPORT module. Data export is available via company network connections or local at control panel. Online services require an internet connection.

Available as upgrade to your WALTEC configuration, full functionality however may be limited due to specific machine configurations. To check technical feasibility and pricing please ask your local WALTEC contact person.
