1. The Problem
Plastics Blown Film manufacturer relied on older, custom-built dashboards that were difficult to maintain, limited in scalability, and disconnected from ERP and historian systems. Operators lacked a standardized, unified way to view production KPIs across multiple plants. The system also could not easily adapt to new production lines or evolving manufacturing requirements.
2. The Solution
Tatsoft FrameworX replaced the legacy dashboards with a modern, scalable platform that integrates directly with machines, ERP, and historians. A custom machine driver was developed using the Tatsoft Driver Toolkit to interface with proprietary equipment, ensuring reliable real-time data flow. The project delivered reusable symbols, dynamic screen templates, and standardized company/plant/line-level dashboards enriched with ERP and manual inputs.
