Line Log Book - Lighthouse MES Production
Improve communication between your teams with an electronic log book
Need better shift hand-overs?
So many factories still use paper line log books, but these are difficult to share and don’t facilitate communications between teams. Use the Line Log Book module of the MES software to:
- Replace paper line log books
- Improve visibility and communication
- Ensure all shift events are recorded, such as set up conditions, tool changes, material changes and process adjustments
- Provide traceability with shift records being available to all on the plant
