AAC WORLDWIDE %u2022 2.2026 PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY 49As the MCS accesses PLC data directly, there is no need for complex interfaces or manual data transfers. All relevant data can be visualised in real time or analysed historically across a range of minutes, hours, days, or weeks.A key advantage of the Wehrhahn MCS lies in its ability to link process data directly to individual production units. Based on Wehrhahn%u2019s detailed knowledge of the production process, all relevant machine, raw material, and process data can be assigned to a specific cake ID.This enables the entire production process to be traced, from the raw material preparation to the finished block.In addition, laboratory and quality data are integrated into the system and linked to the corresponding production batch. This precise traceability enables plant operators to quickly identify the causes of quality deviations. All measured product properties can be directly compared with the actual recipe parameters, raw material properties, and machine conditions at the time of production.As a result, process optimisation becomes significantly faster and more effective.The MCS includes a wide range of specialised evaluation tools covering mechanical, electrical, and process-related parameters. As the system continuously records all machine and system parameters, it can also provide valuable insights into the health status of individual machines.Parameters, such as:%u2022 motor power consumption%u2022 temperature development%u2022 vibration behavior%u2022 hydraulic pressuresare analysed to detect deviations and early indicators of potential machine failures.MCS: The brain of the factory.Linking all process data to the cake ID.
