Productivity is What it’s All About

SmartApps™ are Here to Boost Production

With the goal of increased productivity in mind, Fishman® has created ten SmartApps™. They fall under the category of “Productivity” and, as such, are designed to help our customers get more work done. In fact, many of these SmartApps™ were created using feedback from actual Fishman® customers.

Fishman® has a Proclivity for Productivity

SmartApps™ aren’t the only way Fishman® helps boost your productivity. We’ve also integrated systems into our smart dispensers in an effort to increase efficiency on the manufacturing line. We’ve taken one such capability—automatic production data tracking—and have included it at no additional cost in each Program Choice 2 SmartDispenser® we package and offer for general fluids assembly.

When You See How it Helps, You’ll be Glad it’s in There

  • Automatic production data tracking permits the production data to be recorded by a machine without human input, manipulation, or interference, making it free of errors.
  • It enables reports to be automatically generated every 24 hours:
    • The reports can be automatically emailed to management
    • The reports can be automatically sent to a directory on the server for management review
    • The production line manager can obtain each machine’s report by simply inserting a USB flash drive into the SmartDispenser® USB port and extracting it—and the report automatically loads in seconds

Here are Some Reasons for Adding it to Your Current PLC/Tracking Data

  • This unique capability offers you more data with more detail, benefiting management and improving quality assurance. Examples include:
    • Critical data for operator, workstation, or facility evaluations
    • Improved support for validation reporting requirements
    • Improved support for quality assurance investigations
    • Cost accounting data right down to the production workstation
    • SQL database and bar code scanning that allows customization of each manufacturing application
    • Reports that are provided in Spreadsheet CSV files for quick analysis or PDF format for quick presentations

Work Smarter, Not Harder, with SmartApps™

Here are two Productivity SmartApps™ that are designed to further enhance production data tracking that’s outlined above: Device History Report Update SmartApp™ and the Auto Export Device History Report SmartApp™. These two and the eight that follow have “Productivity” written all over them.

Thank You to Our Creative Customers

Many of the ten SmartApps™ in the “Productivity” category were suggested to Fishman® by actual customers who, after installing the SmartDispenser® in their production facilities and having it work on a particular product assembly process, thought, “hmm, wouldn’t it be great if my SmartDispenser® could do this or do that, I think I’ll mention it to my Account Representative at Fishman®.” If after evaluating the request, all parties involved think it’s an idea that makes sense, Fishman® Engineers go to work creating a new SmartApp™ to better suit your needs.
