Review what happened and when
Use a chronological machine timeline to investigate repeated conditions.
FOR ENGINEERING & MAINTENANCE
Use production history to focus engineering effort.
Engineering teams need more than a list of breakdowns. ClearRivet helps connect machine events with duration, recurrence, output impact and operator context.
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 chronic from isolated loss
Prioritise issues that repeatedly consume productive time.
Use validated machine data
Connect through appropriate PLC/protocol or machine-signal paths and verify the mapping during commissioning.
PRACTICAL USE
What teams can use the data for.
Add operator information
Downtime reason and comments can provide clues that raw machine signals cannot.
Validate after modification
Use production trends to check whether a technical change improved the operating result.
Include older equipment
Where practical, bring legacy assets into the same visibility model using suitable signals or gateways.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Questions manufacturers ask.
Does ClearRivet replace a CMMS?
No. It can identify recurring production losses and machine events, while maintenance planning, work orders and spare-parts management belong in a CMMS or maintenance system.
Can it write commands to PLCs?
Production monitoring should default to read-only data collection unless a separately engineered and validated control use case requires otherwise.
Can engineering see raw machine events?
ClearRivet is designed to provide event and production history appropriate to the configured machine data and user permissions.
