The problem

## What It Costs Today

Machine data sits in PLCs and historians that few people can read. Alarms are noisy, downtime has no reason attached, and process drift shows up as scrap rather than as a warning.

How Fuuz solves it

## What Changes With Fuuz

### Time-series history

Collects machine and sensor data and keeps it as time-series history.

### Alarms you define

Raises alarms with rules and thresholds you define, and records who acknowledged them.

### SPC

Applies statistical process control to key measurements, with trend and control charts.

### Downtime reasons

Ties downtime events to reasons, so repeat causes are visible.

What it connects to

## Works With What You Already Run

Connects to PLCs, OPC UA servers, IoT devices and gateways, historians and quality data.

Everything it records lands in the [Enterprise UNS](https://www.fuuz.com/platform/data), so every other solution works from the same data. See [ERP integration](https://www.fuuz.com/solutions/erp-integration) and [shop-floor connectivity](https://www.fuuz.com/solutions/shop-floor-connectivity) for how those connections work.

Who uses it

## Who Uses It

### Operators

Alarms at their machine, and a place to give a downtime reason.

### Process and quality engineers

Trend and control charts for the measurements that matter.

### Maintenance

Repeat downtime causes by machine.

### Continuous improvement

Where downtime and drift come from, and how often.

Get a head start

## Start From An Accelerator, Not A Blank Page

The [accelerator catalog](https://accelerators.fuuz.com/) is a faster path than building from scratch: prebuilt data models, flows and screens to adopt and adapt to how you run.

Browse the catalog to find the starting points that fit your plants. A Fuuz services professional or an approved partner implements them with you.

What an accelerator gives you

**Data models** The structure for your records, ready to extend.

**Flows** Integrations and logic you can change.

**Screens** Working screens to adapt to your process.
