In Booth C-13109, Shop Floor Automations (SFA; La Mesa, CA), an automation solutions provider, will display its latest manufacturing tools, including software updates and new hardware. A Predator Software reseller since 1998, SFA will inform show attendees about new software versions, plus the functional and flexible Touch HMI. Predator Software updates, with specific solutions for machine monitoring, DNC communication, CNC program editing, document control, and tool management, will be available to view. Predator Touch HMI changes the need to invest in hardware and provides shop floor operators an easier way to interact with management and the Predator Software line. Custom color-coding options plus setting up specific layouts, prompts, and launching of third party applications, can be integrated by SFA for the end user as desired without a large investment.

DataXchange Machine Monitoring from Scytec provides new OEE charts, views from their real time dashboard, multiple part time analysis reports, a shop floor layout view in the dashboard and various equipment status comparison charts that analyze equipment utilization across a span of different days are all new features. Scytec pricing now includes a greater quantity discount for machine monitoring when adding machines with MTConnect, Fanuc Focas and legacy machine tools. DataXchange can also be used via the Cloud or On-Premise, which offers more freedom for users.

The new Connect Series boasts products such as the USB Connect, Floppy Connect, LAN Connect, Ethernet Connect and more. All Connect products help machine shops enhance productivity, empower machinists and eliminate inefficiencies such as downtime with automation tools that make operations more effective. A new piece of the Connect Series, the Multi Connect, was developed in partnership with Moxa and will be available from SFA soon. Exclusive early info and an in-person preview of the Multi Connect will be available to show attendees.
