5 Ways to Optimize Your Process Performance
Collect+ Data SoftwareApplication Collection
2
Using Collect+ is an easy way to advance beyond paper-based processes and get the visibility you really need. By automati-cally pulling data from scales in your manufacturing operation, Collect+ software enables you to conveniently check weighing results and monitor where deviations occur so that you imme-diately know where to take action.
Benefit from Best Practice ExamplesRead on and see how food, chemical and parts manufacturers use Collect+ to optimize their unique processes.

Scales are a critically important data source. Monitoring weight data from goods entry to the final product helps manage process yield and improves material traceability.
Monitor Yield and Traceability
Food Yield Analysis
Monitor Goods-inMonitor incoming goods and know immediately how much has been delivered.
Increase Manual Production EfficiencySee how much is produced by line and operator and use the results to optimize process efficiency.
Calculate Material Losses Compare calculated with real output and find out how much material has been used at each step in the production chain.

Manual portioning in food production is a labor-intensive process. When connect-ed to ICS bench scales, Collect+ pro-vides performance indicators that can help increase yield, reduce waste and speed up portioning. This can result in a yield increase of up to 10 percent.

Weighing process data is generated at automatic and manual steps throughout production. Collect+ provides you the tools to eliminate bottlenecks and identify improvement opportunities.

Inventory ControlTanks and silos often are not convenient to access. Display tank levels on your PC or mobile device.
Check Incoming GoodsHas your supplier ever made a mis-take? If you do not check incoming raw materials you may not know and display data immediately.
Time is Money Dosing and process steps can be time con-suming. Display rate or time consumption of certain steps to identify your time losses.
Material Losses When transferring material from one tank to another material losses decrease your profitability. Collect+ makes them trans-parent.

Stop wasting costly ingredients and los-ing material during production with the transparency you need to optimize your process. With Collect+: � Monitor incoming goods and invento-
ry levels � Check yield and operation steps and � Review output quantities in real time

Manage Inventory for Your CustomersSet up a simple inventory management system for your customers and help them ensure they stay properly supplied.
Buffer Tanks Check levels or consumption of intermediate products stored in buffer tanks.
Inventory ControlUnderstand how soon your bulk materials will be consumed and when to place your next order.

Analyzing consumption of bulk raw materi-als can help you better plan your purchas-ing activities and avoid unexpected short-ages.
Storage tanks and silos are often placed in remote locations where they are difficult to access. Collect+ provides a simple solution to access this important informa-tion remotely.

Every Piece Counts for Your Profit
Counting and Completeness Checks
How Much Stock Do I Have?As small parts are measured on any scale, Collect+ shows your material flow on a customized dashboard.
Components Production and Parts Quality ChecksCheck if your products are within specs. Is the assem-bly complete or are do all parts have a weight within tolerances.
Correct Material ReceivingDid you catch your supplier’s latest mistake? Weigh incoming materials and let Collect+ display the data immediately.
Exact Production OutputCheck your yield and opti-mize as necessary. Make better decisions about when to start and stop production.
Complete PackagingAvoid customer com-plaints and check if your product packages are complete or not.

12How Collect+ Works
Collect: � Weighing data from all measuring de-
vices, no matter the location � Data from application-associated de-
vices, such as barcode scanners or temperature sensors
Visualize: � Process-relevant KPIs � Yield/throughput analysis � Tank-monitoring data � Quality data (completeness checks)
Publish/Share: � Results from multiple lines and applica-
tions on a comprehensive dashboard � Reports on PC or mobile devices for
further analysis anywhere and anytime.
