Stop cause registration

Make downtime visible at the source

Operators register stops directly at the machine or workstation, while the context is fresh. You get clean, structured data you can actually act on.

You can't fix what you can't see

Most downtime goes unrecorded or gets lumped into vague categories after the fact. Without clean stop data, improvement projects are based on gut feeling instead of evidence. Stop Cause Registration captures every stop, every reason, every time, so you know exactly where to focus.

From machine stop to structured data in seconds

A three-step flow that turns every downtime event into data your team can learn from.

01

The machine tells you first

When a machine stops, the operator panel turns red immediately. No ambiguity, no delay. The operator taps the screen to acknowledge the stop and begin registration, right there, right then, while the context is fresh.

02

Every stop gets a reason

Operators pick from a predefined list of stop causes, tailored to each machine or workstation. Setup, tool change, material wait, malfunction. Each entry captures the reason, duration, and optional notes. The result is structured data, not free-text guesswork.

03

A complete picture of every shift

All stops appear on a color-coded timeline, filterable by shift, machine or workstation, and severity. Hover over any block to see exactly what happened, when, and for how long. Patterns that were invisible in shift handover notes become obvious at a glance.
