Shop Floor Monitoring Solutions
In a completive environment, knowledge is essential. Proper data collection and analytics can provide metrics that allow you to analyze company productivity, costs, quality, predictive maintenance and more. Our data collection solutions allow you to cost-effectively gather and process any data available on a electronic device such as a PLC, CNC, meter, PC, HMI, barcode/RFID scanner etc..

DataRealm has implemented manufacturing MES type solutions ranging from custom-developed to customer's own systems to 3rd party application integration. We provide data collection solutions that gather raw data from machines, robots, sensor, workers, and management. And we provide/enable tools to analyze this information, providing cost savings through efficiency.

In a manufacturing environment this information comes from your assets (Man, Machine, and Products). Each asset has inherent data which may be collected and organized differently. In most cases that data is ignored, not collected or at least under utilized. This missed opportunity could be costing you anywhere from 5% to 25% of your manufacturing budget.


Systems Integration
We are not an IT company but we are a manufacturing IT systems company. The difference is that our realm is manufacturing systems, their operation, implementation and their effectiveness to management. If you need general PC and server support we have partner companies that can help you. If you need help communicating with machines and devices and reporting out this information over the web, in Excel, or other medium, then we can help.


Factory Information Systems
Factory Information Systems (FIS) sometimes called Plant Operating Systems, are the backbone of an efficient manufacturing facility. These FIS systems help coordinate and run the operation of a facility, while utilizing their inherent data collection system to provide feedback on production, reporting machine states, number of parts produced, machine bottlenecks, OEE and more.

Analysis of OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) and other parameters is essential for Six Sigma Analysis. Our systems typically report machine utilization, downtime monitoring, fault summaries, quality rate, process bottlenecks, and many others.

DataRealm has extensive experience developing, deploying and upgrading Factory Information Systems. We have helped define new reporting standards in our larger clients, and have a range of solutions for our smaller clients.


Utility Monitoring
With energy and utility prices rising, do you have a handle on when and how your energy is used? Save money by understanding your costs in electricity, compressed air, natural gas, water, steam and other utilities.

We can help you get a handle on your utilities costs by providing a solution to monitor, store and report these costs in real time and historically by hour, shift, day, week, month, etc.
