- Collect and display real-time production data on a touchscreen PC at lineside
- Time-stamp and log piece count, scrap and cycles data into SPEDE MS/SQL database for inventory, traceability, auditability purposes
- Automatically trigger a container label at pack count
- Provide real-time labeling status at lineside
- Create traceability records by machine, part number, date, run, etc.

An Optional Touchscreen PC at Line-side Can Display:
