The NBE Smart Production Yield Counter digitizes the factory production logbook by automatically capturing machine output, process events, operator actions, and batch performance.
At the end of each batch, the system generates a structured production report and sends it by email, giving supervisors and managers immediate visibility without manual reporting.
Many factories still rely on handwritten notes, whiteboards, or spreadsheets to record production events and output.
Without structured event logging, it is difficult to understand when production stopped and what activity took place instead.
Supervisors often need to wait until the end of shift or batch before receiving accurate production information.
The Yield Counter sits between the machine cycle and the reporting workflow, automatically converting machine activity into usable production intelligence.
Each production shot / cycle occurs
Limit switch or IR sensor detects the cycle
Counts output and records activity states
System finalizes the production record
Automatic batch report sent to recipients
Captures actual production count and compares it with target quantity for each batch.
Records activity states such as Production, Tooling, Setting, QC, Maintenance, and Process Idle.
With optional RFID login, the system can associate production events and batches with individual operators.
| Section | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Production Summary | Target quantity, actual quantity, batch overview |
| Event Timeline | Batch started, production, tooling, QC, maintenance, idle |
| Process Time Breakdown | How much time was spent in each process state |
| Staff / Operator | Who performed or logged the activity |
The report turns raw counting into a structured production record. Instead of only knowing “how many parts were made,” managers can review what happened during the batch, where time was spent, and who was involved.
This makes the Yield Counter much more than a counting device — it becomes a practical digital production logbook.
Current deployment supports automatic end-of-batch email reporting. Cloud dashboard expansion can be added later if required.
The NBE Yield Counter automatically generates production reports at the end of each batch. Customers can start with the basic reporting system and later upgrade to a premium dashboard version.
The basic system generates a structured production report in table format and delivers it automatically by email. This provides a digital production logbook without requiring any cloud infrastructure.
Example batch report showing production summary, event timeline, and process time breakdown.
The premium version enhances reporting with a modern dashboard interface. Production performance, process distribution, and event history are visualized using charts and analytics.
Dashboard-style visualization of production performance and machine activity.
A simple digital layer added to existing machines — no full MES system required.
Injection molding / assembly / packaging machine
Industrial limit switch or IR proximity switch
Counting, event logging, operator traceability
Batch summary delivery and connectivity
Supervisors / managers receive automated report
Automatically records machine activity and production results, reducing manual record-keeping effort.
Production reports are delivered automatically at batch end, so supervisors can act without waiting for manual summaries.
Event logging and optional RFID login improve traceability of who did what during each batch.
Process state tracking helps identify where time is being spent outside of production.
Compare configured production targets with actual batch output for clearer performance review.
Adds digital reporting to existing machines without the complexity of a full manufacturing execution system.
