Plataine grows facility visibility, control with 3D Live Map launch
Composites manufacturers are able to proactively track, manage and streamline production status and resources use via a holistic, real-time view of the production environment.
Plataine (High Point, N.C., U.S.) launches the 3D Live Map, a system that is set up to enable visibility into production sites and processes in order to improve how manufacturing facilities manage their operations.
In order to keep track of assets, monitor production progress and respond quickly to unexpected issues on the factory floor, Plataine’s Live Map enables users to gain a comprehensive understanding of production status, materials, part and tool locations and status, enhancing collaboration, operational efficiency and facilitating informed decision-making processes in real time.
The Live Map offers an accessible search function, enabling easy asset, material and equipment location, within the facility and receiving location-based alerts and notifications. Its interface also increases user engagement with the platform. The Map is integrated with Plataine’s factory Digital Twin, providing a holistic view of the production environment. In addition to a real-time visualization of factory operations, operators can track and manage assets within the production site, optimizing resource allocation and minimizing downtime.
The customizable view tailors the map to specific user needs, ensuring a personalized experience.
“Live Map represents our ongoing mission to empower composites manufacturers with actionable insights and advanced technologies,” says Avner Ben-Bassat, president and CEO of Plataine. “By providing a comprehensive and intuitive visualization of the production process, the Live Map solution enables our customers to optimize operations, composites production processes, enhance productivity and drive business growth.”
