USDATA Corp. recently introduced a new module in its Xfactory manufacturing execution system (MES). “Analysis” is a set of software tools that improve visibility into production environments, and helps manufacturers make real-time production changes. Built using TopTier Software’s patented HyperRelational technology, this add-on tool correlates information sources and performs cross-functional data analyses to help solve complex operational problems. Drag and relate navigational capabilities allow end-users to access and correlate information. Xfactory and Analysis share a common data model, which allows the tool to quickly query a database to determine potential production and resource planning issues in real-time.
