What’s New?

We have released an update to the Pulse app's Current States and Machine Timelines page summary, making it more insightful and relevant to your daily operations!

Key Improvements​

• Top Downtime Reasons Visualization

  • The chart now uses new colors to clearly distinguish between planned and unplanned downtime reasons.
  • Instead of showing all downtime reasons ever reported, the chart now focuses on the last 90 days, giving you a more current view of your factory's performance.

• Factory Summary Now Follows Filters

  • The summary values for resources with active work orders, current machine states, and top downtime reasons now dynamically update based on the filters you set on the page.
  • Previously, these values were static and did not reflect your selected filters.

These changes make it easier to focus on the most relevant data and quickly identify trends or issues in your production environment.

Demo:

Measuring tools tracking​

We have had a tracking function in Measuring Tools since the beginning. It has now been refreshed and extended with a useful new feature: last used by tracking.

This improvement is aimed at customers who do not use ERP integrations with Inspect. Previously, tracking was limited to showing the last known resource location, which depended entirely on ERP data.

Improved tool editing and deletion​

You can now multi-select tools in the Compact density view to delete several at once.
It’s also possible to open the Edit dialog instead of editing directly in the table.

Notice that the Delete button in the actions column has been removed. Use the new Delete button instead.

Coming soon: Open operations in a new tab​

You’ll soon be able to open an operation in a new browser tab.

We're happy to introduce a new Export button in Move Admin! You can now easily export data from the following tabs:

• Active bookings
• Complete bookings
• Parcel locations

Available export options include:

• Booking list (with or without tracking)
• Parcel list

All exports are provided as JSON files for easy integration and analysis.

Here’s how it looks in the UI:

We have made it even easier to report and notice active Downtime Reasons in Machine States!

The resource card on the Machine States overview now has a dedicated Report Downtime button at the bottom. This makes it possible to report downtime for all resources. By clicking this button, you can start reporting downtime reasons just like in our report downtime widget in Workspace.

Here is a demo:

Resources that have active downtime reports will display a marker.

You can easily end or edit active downtime reporting by clicking the downtime report marker and pressing the stop button or checking/unchecking the "End downtime reporting when the machine state changes" option.

We are happy to introduce a new type of booking for our Move and Engage users: Material Booking! Now you can make a Move booking for material lines in Engage from the Materials and Consume Materials dialogs.

Material lines with available quantity are now selectable and can be booked by using the booking button in the top corner.

Output in Move

Material bookings are marked with an M throughout Move. The part information and quantity follows the material line and not the production order. A new table containing material bookings is added for related production orders in tracking.

Output in Driver.

We’ve expanded Pulse with two new utilization methods:

• Machine Capacity utilization (OEE)
• Calendar Capacity utilization (OOE)

Examples​

Machine Capacity utilization (OEE)​

Machine Capacity utilization calculates how effectively a machine is used compared to its planned daily capacity.
Admins can dynamically configure the daily capacity for each machine.

For example:
If a machine has its Monday capacity set to 8 hours, and its uptime is 4 hours, the utilization will be 50%.

In systems where Performance and Quality values are available, the OEE calculation will include them. When these values are not provided, they are automatically set to 100%, meaning OEE effectively reflects Availability.

💡 Admin Tip:
Be careful when assigning very low capacity values (for example, 0.1 h) to weekends or non-production days. If the machine runs even briefly on those days, utilization can spike to unrealistic levels (thousands of %). Set capacity to 0 h for days with no planned production to avoid distorted results.

Calendar Capacity utilization (OOE)​

Calendar Capacity utilization calculates how effectively a machine is used compared to the company’s planned calendar capacity.
Admins can dynamically configure the calendar capacity.

Just like with OEE, in systems where Performance and Quality values are available, the OOE calculation will include them. When these values are not provided, they are automatically set to 100%, meaning OEE effectively reflects Availability.

Factory Calendar settings for Admins​

We’ve improved the readability of utilization graphs by introducing a soft maximum of 100% on the Y-axis.

What’s new​

• When utilization values are below 100%, the Y-axis is locked at 100% for easier comparison across different insights.
• When utilization values exceed 100%, the Y-axis dynamically adjusts beyond 100% to fit the data.
• This ensures more consistent scaling when comparing Power-on, 24/7, Factory Calendar, and Machine Calendar utilization insights.

Example​

The Y-axis stays consistently locked at 100% until utilization values go beyond 100%, at which point the axis automatically adjusts.

Pulse cards now make it easier to see how long a resource has been idle without an active work order.

What’s new​

• Each Pulse card shows the duration since the last active work order ended.
• The duration text is color-coded by time thresholds:
  • 🟢 Green – last active within 1 hour
  • 🟡 Yellow/Orange – last active 1–24 hours ago
  • 🔴 Red – last active 24+ hours ago
• Hovering over the duration reveals the exact timestamp when the last work order ended.

Examples​

Tooltip showing exact inactive time:

We’ve made it easier to analyze and compare utilization data with the addition of a total row in utilization tables.

What’s new​

• Tables showing utilization values now include a footer row with totals.
• This allows users to quickly extract overall numbers and compare results across different companies or groups.
• Improves clarity and reduces manual calculation effort when analyzing utilization metrics.
