MONITOR
Obtain in-depth machine and process data in real-time. Review data trends across different timeframes, set alerts for deviations from an established baseline, and troubleshoot them before incurring unforeseen downtime.
MONITOR allows technicians, operators and maintenance teams to access live and historic machine and process data at the touch of a button, through secure, remote connections. This data is invaluable for technicians, operators and maintenance teams.

With MONITOR, they can access this data to:
- Determine true downtime causes in the event of a malfunction
- Set up alerts if machine parameters deviate from ideal values
- Generate reports for both machine and process data
- Turn real-time machine insights into optimal production measures
- Access historic data and review trends
MONITOR is handy to machine builders
and providers. They can use its data to:
- Improve the next generation of machines
- Prevent unplanned downtime before it occurs due to real-time monitoring and alerts
- Advise clients on best practices when setting up or using the machines
- Ensure adherence to service level agreements

Your machines without MONITOR
MONITOR helps track the primary cause of machine failures or inefficiencies, which often lead to unplanned and excessive equipment downtime. MONITOR provides the foundation for a truly connected factory, enabling key solutions such as predictive maintenance, quality and recipe management.
Without a solution like MONITOR, users often experience:
Unplanned Downtime
Without having a handle on machine data, downtime causes cannot be identified, leading to unplanned downtime. This affects factory efficiency and hurts client relationships as orders are delayed or inconsistent.
Increased Risk of Human Error
Operators might have to devise manual ways to monitor machines and their data. This is inefficient, time-consuming and adds to their existing workload, which can increase the risk of human error as the pressure mounts.
Reactive, Costly Maintenance Models
Maintenance without tracking machine data is often reactive, meaning repairs are done as machine parts fail. This is inefficient as any failure necessarily causes unplanned downtime, and requires overstocking of spare parts.
Poor Shop Floor Communication
If technicians and operators cannot understand why a machine is not performing optimally, working with managers and supervisors to arrive at a solution is difficult.
Failure to comply with SLAs
Machine builders take pride in producing high quality, but without reliable data there is no way to assure compliance with SLAs.
Energy and Resource Wastage
Unplanned downtime and poor machine performance contribute to wasted energy and resources
The ei3 Advantage
Ease-of-use
Do away with manually data extraction from individual machines on the shop floor. MONITOR collects all data remotely, securely, and continuously, and uses powerful visualization tools to show data for a single device, a fleet or multiple fleets, depending on your requirements – all at your fingertips
Access to historic data
Provides a general snapshot of real-time data received from the machine, contrasted against historic data. See trends, outliers, and create alerts.
Detects effects of wear-and-tear
Allows comparisons between a machine’s state when it was new and its current status over time. Can choose short periods to review different statuses by charting out data points for evaluation.
Variable Export
Verified users can securely export machine data to various devices in various formats.
Alert System
Users can set up alerts to get a notification for specific parameters going out of set limits. They can also set frequency, time and language for those alerts so that the different alerts are given priority depending on their importance. Lastly, users can send alerts to a specific mailing list – like their maintenance team.
Secure and Adaptive
MONITOR has over 100 support machine standard protocols to access controllers and transport the data to our private cloud infrastructure.
