POWER FOCUS<br />

Data collection <strong>and</strong> process improvement software<br />

ToolsNet – process improvement<br />

ToolsNet is a data collection <strong>and</strong> process improvement software<br />

application for use with Power Focus <strong>and</strong> PowerMACS<br />

control <strong>systems</strong>. Combined, these products provide total control<br />

of the <strong>assembly</strong> process, providing a platform for quality<br />

improvements. Historical data, statistics <strong>and</strong> capability indexes<br />

can be accessed at any time via a st<strong>and</strong>ard web browser such<br />

as MS Explorer. ToolsNet is the complete <strong>assembly</strong> process<br />

improvement tool.<br />

Traceability minimizes recall costs<br />

The production can be followed in real-time or monitored<br />

through different reports such as the Shift report or Product<br />

report which provides information on an entire shift or every<br />

tightening related to a specified product.<br />

In the event of warranty recalls, the result database provides<br />

access to critical information which can easily minimize the<br />

extent of any recall leading to an overnight payback on your<br />

investment.<br />

Event Monitor – events in real time<br />

Integrate the Event Monitor software application within your<br />

plant architecture <strong>and</strong> monitor Power Focus <strong>and</strong> PowerMACS<br />

events remotely, as they occur on the <strong>assembly</strong> line, in real<br />

time.<br />

Event Monitor can immediately alert your office PC if the Cpk<br />

on a specific controller has dropped below a specified level, or<br />

if a tool at a specific workstation requires preventative maintenance.<br />

Event Monitor is web based. Data can be accessed from<br />

anywhere in the plant, using a st<strong>and</strong>ard web browser such as<br />

MS Explorer.<br />

Program History – Track programming changes<br />

Program history provides traceability of programming changes<br />

in the Power Focus Controller.<br />

Any change that may be done locally directly on the controller<br />

will be reported to the ToolsNet database. This is also a<br />

powerful report to cross check which products were built with<br />

which detailed programming.<br />

Factory Overview – visualization<br />

Factory Overview provides real time monitoring <strong>and</strong> visualization<br />

of the production process. Factory Overview is a visual<br />

aid that presents the momentary status of the <strong>assembly</strong> process<br />

for a factory, line or workstation in an easy-to-comprehend<br />

form, from anywhere in the factory.<br />

This object-orientated concept enables tooling, quality <strong>and</strong><br />

maintenance engineers to access all plant data in real time.<br />

Factory Overview ensures significant performance gains<br />

throughout the entire <strong>assembly</strong> process.<br />

Factory Overview also provides a single portal through which<br />

other Atlas Copco software applications, such as ToolsTalk PF,<br />

WinTC, ToolsNet <strong>and</strong> Event Monitor, can be accessed.<br />
