ECAPSO
Solution: Manufacturing

Machine and PLC data collection for manufacturing.

Production lines already generate the data. Ecapso collects it from machines, PLCs, drives and meters over Modbus and OPC UA, validates it, and delivers a reliable operational data layer to ERP, MES and, optionally, Ecapso Visualization.

Manufacturing

Connect existing machines and turn their operational data into a reliable real-time data layer.

Production lines, PLCs, drives and meters already produce the data. Ecapso Gateway collects it over Modbus and OPC UA, validates it and delivers it to ERP, MES, databases and, when needed, Ecapso Visualization.

Use case: cable manufacturing

Cable production runs on continuous lines where speed, length and machine availability decide output. Ecapso collects the process and counter signals from those lines and makes them comparable across shifts, machines and plants.

Extrusion

Line speed, temperature zones, machine status and stoppages.

Drawing

Speed, load, runtime counters and downtime reasons.

Stranding

Production counters, length produced and machine availability.

Rewinding

Reel counts, length per reel and energy consumption.

Cable manufacturing is a use case of the Manufacturing solution, not a separate product.
