The Asset Meter feature is all about keeping track of your equipment based on real metrics like running minutes, elapsed time, counts, and order completion. This means you can get alerts when it's time for maintenance or other actions, not just based on a schedule, but based on actual usage.
For example, instead of doing maintenance every six months whether it's needed or not, you can do it when the machine has actually run a certain number of hours. This helps avoid unexpected breakdowns and keeps everything running smoothly.
It’s a smarter way to manage your assets, reduce downtime, and make sure your production stays on track!
