ESAB Data Leap software analyses cutting machine performance
1 min read
Profiling machine supplier ESAB Cutting Systems has launched the Data Leap program, a production management software system that provides information on the performance of cutting machines. It can be used to improve machine performance, ensure production flows are optimised and be used as part of a fully automated manufacturing installation.
Data Leap software modules allow companies to build up from basic cutting machine performance analysis through to a totally intelligent and automated manufacturing process, explains ESAB.
Data Leap can acquire data on everything from basic machine performance data through to detailed information on process times, downtime, faults and required material stock withdrawals to satisfy production runs. It is possible to carry out real-time evaluations of performance, so that the users can then immediately intervene to make any adjustments to optimise the production processes.
Data Leap has intelligent interfaces to communicate seamlessly with individual IT platforms, ERP systems, as well as nesting systems such as ESAB's Colombus. Information can be made available in the form of Excel or XML documents for further processing.
Data Leap consists of clearly defined modules that can be combined and customised to suit the specific requirements. Three preconfigured module packages are also available: Data Leap Light, Classic and Premium which cover all modules for maximum transparency and flexibility in production-optimised data management, says ESAB.
