A video management system (VMS) can be used for a variety of purposes. In this article, we explain how a smart VMS can contribute to optimizing production processes.

A video management system is ideal for monitoring automated processes. It enables quick detection of issues so that immediate action can be taken.

Business Continuity

The advantage of a VMS is that it allows remote monitoring to identify where a problem occurs and what action needs to be taken. In the case of irregularities, the production process can be automatically halted. It is crucial to ensure business continuity, as downtime means lost time and money. A VMS not only offers a solution but also pays for itself in the short term.

Immediate insight

When a problem is detected, a video management system provides immediate insight and oversight. Through the smart use of AI algorithms, relevant data is recorded by the VMS. The collection of the right video footage allows for later analysis. Thanks to the analysis function, specific events can be searched for in the video images, saving valuable time.Thanks to the analysis feature, specific events in the footage can be quickly retrieved, saving valuable time.

Quick Overview

The video footage can also be indexed based on metadata. Indexing information such as time and date offers the significant advantage of quickly determining when and how often a specific incident occurred within a given period. This contributes to accurate problem detection and efficient resolution, further optimizing production processes.

Privacy When deploying cameras, one must take the GDPR legislation into account. When implementing a VMS, it is important to consider employee privacy. Mactwin is happy to advise on how privacy can be safeguarded. There are various methods to ensure the system is GDPR-compliant.

 

Training

In addition to monitoring the production process, a VMS can also be used for training purposes. A selection of video recordings can be utilized to familiarize new employees with common issues and related follow-up actions.
