Keep pace visible
Track output and performance against the expected rate or cycle basis configured for the product.
PLASTICS MANUFACTURING
Turn machine cycles into production visibility.
For plastics operations, small cycle-time changes, repeated stops and changeovers can materially affect output. ClearRivet provides a common production view without depending on end-of-shift spreadsheets.
WHAT MATTERS
Production visibility designed around the work.
ClearRivet is intended to give manufacturing teams a common view of machine status, production, downtime and OEE without turning every improvement project into a full MES deployment.
Separate scheduled performance from calendar use
Use OEE and utilisation for different questions instead of treating them as interchangeable.
Find repeated interruptions
Group downtime reasons and durations to identify chronic production losses.
PRACTICAL USE
What teams can use the data for.
Keep product context
Use order/product context to make comparisons more meaningful across production runs.
Compare shifts
Look for repeat differences in availability, pace and downtime.
Connect mixed-age assets
Use validated PLC/protocol or signal-based connectivity where appropriate for the machine.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Questions manufacturers ask.
Is ClearRivet an injection-moulding process-control system?
No. ClearRivet focuses on production monitoring and manufacturing visibility; it does not replace machine process control.
Can it calculate OEE?
Yes, when the required production, planned-time, rate and quality inputs are configured and validated.
Can old moulding machines be monitored?
Potentially. Mixed-age equipment may be connected through PLC data or suitable machine signals, subject to commissioning validation.
