[FA Site Improvement Case] Visualizing the amount of sand in the hopper within the factory.

Visualization of analog data: Enables monitoring of remaining amounts while in the office.

We will introduce a case study of improvements in FA (Factory Automation) sites proposed by Patlite. In a work environment where the amount of sand in the hopper is checked visually, there are risks associated with the confirmation process, and there are instances where sand may overflow. We proposed the "LA6 type" layered information display light. The "LA6 type" can express the amount of sand in terms of layers and colors freely when combined with sensors. In case of overflow or other dangerous situations, it alerts users with a particularly noticeable lighting pattern, such as all lights on. Now, it has become possible to monitor overflow along with managing remaining quantities from the office. [Case Study] ■ Current Situation - The amount of sand in the hopper is checked visually. - The confirmation process involves risks. - There are instances of sand overflowing. ■ Proposal - By combining with sensors, the amount of sand can be expressed freely in terms of layers and colors. - In dangerous situations like overflow, it provides warnings with particularly noticeable lighting patterns, such as all lights on. - The display patterns can be freely edited using application software. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. https://www.patlite.co.jp/ ↓↓↓ Official Online Shop ↓↓↓
