Why You Should Switch to Paperless Graphic Recorders and use a Eurotherm Data Mangement System
In today's industrial landscape, accurate data recording is essential for maintaining quality and meeting legal requirements. Paperless graphic recorders have ushered in a new era of precision data tracking, ditching old-fashioned paper and charts for digital storage to record valuable production data.
These modern devices are rapidly replacing traditional paper-based systems across various industries. The shift is driven by several factors:
-
Improved Accuracy: Digital recorders offer higher precision and eliminate errors associated with manual chart reading.
-
Cost-Effectiveness: By reducing paper, ink, and storage costs, paperless recorders cut reoccurring expenses.
-
Environmental Benefits: Reduces carbon footprint, directly contributing to less trees being cut down for paper. It also eliminates the need for ink-based recording methods that involve harmful chemicals.
-
Enhanced Data Management: Data digitally stored enhances data retrieval, analysis, and sharing.
-
Real-Time Monitoring: Many paperless recorders offer remote access, enabling real-time process monitoring from any location.
The adoption of paperless recorders is particularly notable in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, aerospace, and automotive manufacturing. In these sectors, the integrity of data, security features, as well as audit trail functions, offer paperless recorders advantages over traditional paper methods.
As technology continues to advance, the capabilities of paperless recorders are expanding. Many now incorporate features like touchscreen interfaces, multiple input channels, and advanced data analysis tools. Models such as the Eurotherm 6000 Series offer scalable solutions to meet varying industry needs.
With capacity extendable to 48 precision input channels, and recording interval of as little as 125ms, the 6100 series is self-contained, cost effective and trusted by customers and auditors alike.
Data can be encrypted during transmission to archive or backup servers, using SFTP to prevent interception or falsification of packets. Data redundancy is provided using a store and forward mechanism to avoid data loss if a network connection fails.
The Eurotherm 600 Series also seamlessly integrates with Eurotherm Data Reviewer, a powerful software application designed for viewing, analysing and printing historical data files obtained from Eurotherm data acquisition equipment. Available in two versions; the Foundation Edition and the Enterprise Edition, it can cater to different business needs and scales of operation.
