Sightline EDM - Software for Real-Time Predictive Analytics
What is predictive analytics? In short, it’s the secret to predicting the future in real-time. Sightline’s revolutionary software pulls hundreds of different metrics from thousands of inputs and feeds them all into one monitor for easy viewing and predictive modeling. By combining this real-time data with the historical data from your entire operation, you can predict upcoming issues and prevent costly downtime, product defects, decreased OEE, and increased costs. Our proprietary pattern analysis technology, ForSight, is specifically designed for advanced data aggregation. Whether your company works across multiple facilities or within a single location, Sightline EDM can help you to predict the future, drive efficient performance, and reduce costs. By combining our advanced analytics with machine learning and AI, predictions become increasingly more accurate over time as more data becomes available. Discover how Sightline can help you maximize efficiency and lower costs.
Streamline Processes with a Single, Unified View Across All Your Facilities and Environments
Sightline EDM® collects real-time data across thousands of inputs within each of your facilities, environments, and production operations and presents it to you on a single dashboard.
Beyond real-time data analysis and monitoring, Sightline integrates your entire ecosystem by swiftly aggregating, displaying, and analyzing time-series data to assist teams in understanding the past, present, and future of production infrastructure. So, you’re getting a holistic view across all of your operations in one location.
Line Stops
Line stops are costly and inefficient. They cause end-to-end problems for your business by holding up production, increasing shipping times, and leaving customers unsatisfied. With Sightline’s predictive analytics, you can predict potential problems that lead to line stops and prevent them before they start.
Equipment Downtime
If even one piece of equipment in your facility is not producing, it can lead to a stop in production. That means increased costs, increased shipping, and unhappy customers. The predictive analytics capabilities provided by EDM® can give you advanced warning as well as root cause analysis and anomaly detection of the issue.
Quality Defects
Whether the defect is minor, major, or critical, it can significantly impact your company’s reputation. Producing products that don’t meet the standards your company or customers are accustomed to can cause significant problems that continue to affect you long after a solution has been found. By preventing these issues from ever occurring, you are saving money and maintaining your reputation in one fell swoop.
Issues that Decrease OEE
Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is key to maintaining production. With capacity planning predictive analytics, you can prevent the “Six Big” losses (equipment failure, setup and adjustments, idling and minor stops, reduced speed, process defects, and reduced yield) and keep your facilities running smoothly and efficiently.
Issues that Increase Costs
Increased costs in production lead to potential profit loss and increased consumer pricing. Some cost increases can’t be avoided, like material costs. But significant production cost increases can be prevented with proper monitoring and efficient performance monitoring that Sightline provides.
Working Around the Clock
Every second, EDM® is collecting data from sensors, monitors, equipment, labor, servers, apps, and network devices across the OT and IT of your facilities–down to the process or unit level.
Focused Data that Matters
This data is then analyzed to give you accurate predictive and prescriptive analytics on the areas that matter most to your business.
Increase Efficiency and Performance
With Sightline EDM®, your team can improve your operation’s efficiency and performance while reducing costs and improving OEE.
Be Ready Before an Issue Arises
Empower all employees to predict upcoming issues related to capacity, supplies, labor availability, resources, maintenance needs, and more.
