Showcased at IMTS 2016 and available now, MERLIN Tempus is the new next-generation software foundation in MEMEX’s smart manufacturing platform.
Tempus is Latin for time. MERLIN Tempus measures and analyzes manufacturing time. MERLIN Tempus tells manufacturers exactly how time is being used on their shop floors, with operators, with sensors, and with any type of manufacturing asset.
MERLIN Tempus equips industrial machines with the necessary interfaces that enable data-driven manufacturing. Once MERLIN Tempus is implemented, it creates a way to funnel data from both machine states (e.g. run time data) and machine processes (e.g. sensor data) for improved efficiency. It then provides actionable information in the form of user-configurable, Web-enabled dashboard reports for machine operators, factory managers, engineers, production managers, continuous improvement managers and senior management so they can work together to dramatically improve productivity and profit on an ongoing basis.
As an integral launchpad into the IIoT/Industry 4.0 universe, MERLIN Tempus connects to and embraces a wide range of factory-floor devices. Leveraged as a shared resource, data-driven insights enable everyone in the manufacturing enterprise to be involved in increasing throughput, productivity, and profitability.
MERLIN Tempus is open, extensible and highly scalable for single and multi-plant operations. It enables data-driven manufacturing with zero programming or custom integration.
Developed using state-of-the-art software engineering technologies, including
