Full yield from machine and software — connected production makes idle capacity visible.
ADVANCED CAPABILITIES · 08 — PRODUCTION AUTOMATION (MAS)
Get full output from every machine.
BSS Technology automation engineers inspect every machine in your plant on site and make it talk to our software. Data is read automatically from machine counters, PLCs, encoders or Intelligent IO cards and recorded in the ERP.
WHY AUTOMATION?
An unconnected machine is an invisible loss.
Manually recorded output arrives late, incomplete and inaccurate. Data read at the machine is immediate, complete and beyond dispute — planning, cost and quality run on it.
24/7
Uninterrupted monitoring — output, downtime and consumption are recorded around the clock.
< 1 sec
No lag between floor and screen — data reaches the dashboard the moment it forms.
Vendor independent
Counters, PLCs and terminals connect to the system regardless of brand or age.
FROM THE FLOOR TO THE SYSTEM
Our automation engineers make every machine talk to the software.
Brand, age or communication protocol makes no difference. Our team inspects the machine on site, picks the right interface and carries the data into ERP, MES and the executive dashboards.
01
On-site review
Our automation engineers come to the floor and map each machine's output, signals and communication structure.
02
The right interface
Counter, PLC or terminal — the right connection is chosen for the machine; extra sensors are fitted where needed.
03
Carrying it into the system
Data connects to ERP, MES and the cost module; every signal is matched to its work order and machine.
04
Live dashboard
Output, downtime, speed and waste stream live to the executive dashboard; decisions are made in step with the floor.
ONCE CONNECTED
Every machine becomes a live row on the dashboard.

WHAT WE READ FROM THE FLOOR
Every signal from the machine turns into a decision.
Output counter
Actual count and speed come straight from the machine; the gap to plan shows instantly.
Downtime and its reason
The moment a machine stops, duration and reason are recorded — no waiting for the end of shift.
Waste and consumption
Actual consumption and waste are written to the work order; cost is calculated from floor data.
OEE and capacity
Availability, performance and quality combine into a single OEE figure.
Machine status
Temperature, cycle and sensor data; pre-failure signals are caught early.
Events and alarms
Threshold breaches and critical events become instant alerts on the dashboard.
PLATFORM CAPABILITIES THAT COMPLETE AUTOMATION
A connected machine becomes live data in every layer of the platform.
