Profiling machine PDM software

ESAB Cutting Systems’ production Data Management System (PDM) is designed to control, track, record and report the performance of a cutting system in real-time.

It allows data related to cutting and marking process to be captured and interfaced with existing business planning systems. By making production performance transparent, operational costs can be lowered and cycle times can be reduced making the PDM system the key to maximum cost-effectiveness, productivity and profitability.

The PDM system offers a number of different modules that can be added as required. These include, for example, PDM Workshop View that provides automatically updated visualisation of all cutting machines connected to the PDM System. It gives a detailed view of current and historical machine processes and performance. The PDM Maintenance module records wear and usage of consumables whilst the PDM Event Control database records machine downtime and error messages.

When combined, the various modules give fully automated machine data logging and support detailed working orders for each cutting machine to maximise productivity.
