Boost OEE with 3D HMI alarm visualization. Empower operators, reduce downtime, and achieve Operational Excellence
In a busy manufacturing plant striving for Operational Excellence, machines hum steadily as production runs at full speed. The facility relies on a traditional HMI visualization system to monitor performance. One morning, a message flashes on the screen: “Alarm: Liquid level too low.”
The operator pauses. The message is vague. Which tank is it? How urgent is the issue? What’s the next step? With no clear guidance, he reaches for the manual, calls a colleague, and walks over to the machine to investigate. Time ticks by. Production halts. The plant’s Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) drops. What should have been a minor issue becomes a costly delay.
Meanwhile, in a forward-thinking factory embracing Smart Industry principles, the same alarm is triggered. But this facility uses the Dyvixion System, a next-generation platform designed for Industry 4.0 environments. As soon as the liquid level dips below the threshold, the operator’s screen displays a dynamic 3D HMI visualization of the machine. The affected tank glows red, instantly pinpointing the issue.
Without hesitation, the operator taps the highlighted area. A guided, interactive sequence begins. The system zooms in on the tank, visually demonstrating how to check the inlet valve, refill the tank, and reset the sensor. No need for manuals. No need for guesswork. The operator is supported every step of the way through intuitive, visual Operator Support tools.
Within minutes, the issue is resolved. The machine is back online. Downtime is avoided. The plant maintains high OEE, and the operator feels confident and in control.
This is more than just a faster response—it’s a smarter one. Dyvixion’s 3D alarm visualization transforms traditional alarm handling into a seamless, visual experience. It empowers operators, reduces training time, and embeds knowledge directly into the system. It’s a perfect example of how Industry 4.0 technologies are driving Operational Excellence—one alarm at a time.
