A purpose-designed work-in-progress tracking module, is for fast and accurate, interactive reporting of manufacturing data via industry-standard Web browsers.
Net TRACKING, a purpose-designed work-in-progress (production inventory) tracking module, is the latest addition to DLoG UK's suite of Web-enabled NeT software for fast and accurate, interactive reporting of manufacturing data via industry-standard Web browsers, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer. Eliminating the need - and associated licensing costs - of special-purpose software on multiple PCs, NeT TRACKING provides simple specification and display of user-defined reports anywhere in the world. It is therefore ideal for multi-site manufacturing operations, corporate intranets, or other locations beyond a traditional manufacturing data network.

NeT TRACKING is all that is required to provide fast access to numerous standard format reports - including Gantt charts, order comparisons and 'actual' versus 'planned' throughput.

Displays are available for viewing data based on personnel, orders or by production machines.

Data is collected using DLoG's proven TipDATA data collection software.

The system features a simple user interface with large buttons activated via a touch-screen, and offers the option of either manual or automated data collection - to ensure accurate data collection in real time.

'The system is already used world-wide in industries as diverse as aerospace, bathroomware and pharmaceuticals.

Introduction of the new NeT REPORT module - which will be launched in the UK at MACH 2004 - gives customers a choice of reporting methods, depending on their particular circumstances,' says DLoG's, John Davis.

'Clearly, the cost savings, convenience and accessibility of information using the Web-based system will make it particularly attractive for extended enterprise, multi-site or international operations.'
