01A6.Hub

Service portal

Enter all four modules from one service portal; permissions, notifications and module access are set in one admin console.

  1. L1

    Service portal

    Each module has its own entry, alongside a cross-module summary: open alerts, today's downtime, health changes and energy anomalies.

  2. L2

    Module view

    From the portal into a module — for example the A6.iAndon machine overview, with each machine's status, work order and downtime side by side.

SHEET 02The Platform

Four modules. Start with the one you need most.

Start with one production line, equipment type or area, then expand as needs are confirmed.

01Machine overview
02Production board
03Downtime analysis

Which machine stopped? Where is the work order?

What the screens show

  • Running, stopped and alarm counts with today's output
  • Per-machine utilization, output vs. target, cycle time and current work order
  • Production board with shift progress and an alert ticker
  • Downtime-reason Pareto chart and downtime event timeline

SHEET 03A6.AI

Ask the floor in plain language.

Every answer should point back to its source. AI proposes. You approve.

How many units has Line 2 made today? — L2 test line (Line 2) has produced 1,210 units today and is on target.

Every answer should point back to its source.

  1. 01

    Understand the question

    Identify the machine, time and measure. Ask again when the request is unclear.

  2. 02

    Check permitted data

    Use the site's agreed data and access rules; confirm before any schedule change.

  3. 03

    Return to the record

    Link the answer to a board, schedule or report so a person can verify it.
