Reporting Downtime and Scrap to SFC F-1
Appendix F. Reporting Downtime and
Scrap to SFC
This appendix shows you how to report press downtime from your SmartPAC 2 control to
Wintriss’s ShopFloorConnect Asset Utilization Software (SFC). The appendix discusses the
six machine states to which SFC logs press time, explains the downtime reporting features of
SmartPAC 2, shows you how to set up SmartPAC 2 to report downtime to SFC, and provides
instructions for reporting downtime.
The appendix also shows you how to use the scrap counter on the SmartPAC 2 Counters
screen in Run mode to report scrap to SFC and how to adjust the Good Parts count that is
reported to SFC.
SmartPAC’s downtime- and scrap-reporting features are available only on SmartPAC 2
versions 4.59 or higher; in addition, the SFC firmware option must be installed.
Machine States to Which SFC Logs Press Time
SFC logs all elapsed time at each press to one of six categories called machine states. The
sum of all the times assigned to these machine states for an individual press is the number of
hours in a production day (e.g., 12 hours, 24 hours, etc.). SFC selects the machine state to
which to log press time on the basis of downtime reporting and other information it receives
from SmartPAC 2. Machine states are differentiated as follows:
•
Running Time–Press is running and making parts
•
Idle Time–Press is stopped, no SmartPAC error has occurred, and the reason the press is
stopped has not been documented in SmartPAC 2
•
Unplanned Downtime–Press is stopped due to a SmartPAC 2 error, or if the press is stopped
for another reason, that reason has been assigned to the Unplanned Downtime state in SFC
•
Planned Downtime–Press is stopped, and the reason has been assigned to the Planned
Downtime state in SFC
•
Changeover Time–Press is stopped, and the reason has been assigned to the Changeover
state in SFC
•
Offline Time–Press is stopped because there is no power to the press or the network is
down
All time during which the press is stopped for any reason other than a power interruption or
network failure is logged by SFC to Idle Time unless a downtime reason is reported from the
SmartPAC 2. Idle Time is treated in ShopFloorConnect as downtime with no documented
reason. Since corrective action cannot be taken until a cause is identified, SmartPAC 2 has
been designed to allow very precise reporting of downtime to SFC and may be programmed to
require the operator to select a specific downtime reason each time the press enters an Idle
state. When operator intervention is required, periods of press inactivity are more likely to be
assigned to a specific downtime reason than to be logged as Idle Time.
