Line Log Book
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 software module 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
- All information is time-stamped and automatically related to the production run, product being made, process and equipment
- Allow operatives to record comments and information at any time
- Provide a readily available list of user-defined events to record: shift handovers comments, tool changes, cleaning, issues, etc.
- Go paperless – no more paper distribution, collation and filing
- Learn lessons – what were the difficult production runs – what were the issues?
- Avoid mistakes – get easy access to the log book where all issues are recorded
- Improve effectiveness –save operators’ time and make it easy for everyone to access and read the log
- Communication – ensure no information is lost between shifts as well as between management and operators
- Traceability – quickly trace issues on shifts in the production record
- Cost savings – cut costs of filing and handling paper records
