I just found out about MTConnect and am interested in hearing from anyone who is using it on their machines:
How much do the adapters cost? Esp. for older models.
What other costs were involved in implementation?
What software are you using?
What kinds of data analysis/monitoring are you doing?
How did the implementation go? Time to get setup? Training?
Any other pertinent information would be appreciated.
Most of your questions can be answered at MTConnect's homepage. The ones that can not be answered are vendor specific and there are links to the appropriate contacts.
Glad to answer any questions about MTConnect.
Thanks Dave. I've actually been reading a lot and watching the videos on the website, but I was looking forward to seeing how many people in the cnczone community are aware of MTConnect and hearing the nitty gritty about their experiences with implementation and use. I am actually in contact with System Insights about getting set up at our plant, but I was hoping to get a conversation going on the forum to raise awareness about it.Quote:

Has nobody else heard of MTConnect???
