Products and Components
The platform 4i is built by a combination of modular components that are designed with a focus on simplicity
Apps
Industry oriented software applications that run on tablets or touch panels and complement the data acquisition with input from field personnel.
OEEasy
Measure Time, Speed and Quality
Calculates and displays OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness), a KPI that involves Availability, Productivity and Quality.
Provides data entry screens to manage shift schedules, downtime justification, product line up and quality issues
CEnergy
Manage energy sources
Management of energy sources. Online monitoring of consumptions. Alerts to detours or peaks. Configuration of virtual meters.
SPC
Statistical Process Control
Statistical process control module with batch and product tracking. Control Graphics.
ELT
Equipment Life Tracking

Tools
Platform tools used to customize the applications and enhance the user experience.
Mimic Builder
Create and Share RealTime Screens
Graphical tool used to create SCADA-like screens that can be shared via web with many users. The module allows the use of HTML5, CSS3 and javascript to create modern animated displays
RT Export
Upload the internal realtime data
This module allows extracting the raw real-time data from the acquisition system to an existing relational database, allowing the use of the 4i platform as a local store-and-forward acquisition and storage service
Event Builder
Apply detection logic to your data
This module allows the programming of algorithms and rules using existing tag database as inputs, also enables the creation of new tags and the detection of custom events.
Report Builder
Create tables and charts
This tool enables administratos to create custom OLAP-type reports, also known as pivot-tables, using the 4i internal database columns as variables and dimensions.
Hardware Products
Collect, process and store data from sensors, controllers and devices and host industry-specific applications
4i SERVER
Local IoT server
Serves as a concentrator for data acquisition from 4i Dashes, OPC, PLC and other distributed agents.
Performs the functions of administration of the architecture, data storage and application host.
