From the start of development by Acuity in 2010, the UltraScreen capabilities have continuously improved. Orders received in 2013 have now been lled with daily production reports and summary graphs being immediately available to production and quality assurance personnel. Data management is integrated into factory enterprise systems so that analysis and reviews of cable data are simple and quickly carried out. Acuity Products Ltd – UK Website : www.acuityproducts.co.uk Germany-based Informations- systeme is presenting the new generation of Advaris Cable, its tried and tested solution for the sector. One highlight of Advaris Cable is the new version of the detailed planning and scheduling module. Managing director Dr Moser said: “With our advanced ‘in-memory’ technology, we provide operating managers with a comfortable, top performance planning aid with remarkably short reaction times, capable of dealing even with large-scale quantity structures.

Acuity Products will be exhibiting on the back of several recent installations of its UltraScreen™ cable quality monitor. The system continuously monitors the quality parameters of high voltage cables during production, with smaller cables down to 60mm diameter now possible by a new mechanical design that maintains system accuracy for a wide range of cable diameters. All layer widths and internal features, such as insulation inclusions, protrusions and voids are permanently recorded. Material savings are possible by the highly accurate and ne resolution of UltraScreen measurements.

➣➢➣ When breakdowns occur, MRO plans repair work under consideration of high plant availability. The transparent presentation of maintenance costs is a valuable aid to decision-making for company management. “Advaris Cable’s multi-resource planning covers machines, tools, materials and maintenance schedules and – for instance – automatically suggests the use of alternative machines to avoid potential production bottlenecks. Thus optimised planning yields very considerable prac- tical advantages: less capital is tied up, and delivery dates can be reliably met.” The maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) module, which is an integral part of the system, ensures trouble-free production operation and a substantial reduction of mean time to repair (MTTR). ▲ View production status any time, anywhere: the new Advaris Cable App for smartphones and tablets
