Smart Production Counter Display
WiFi & Ethernet enabled LED production counter.
The Smart Production Counter Display by Robato Systems is a next-generation networked LED production counter designed for factories that require real-time, accurate and connected production monitoring. With support for WiFi, Ethernet, PLC integration, sensor input and Android app control, this smart counter automatically synchronises with your production management software, on-prem or cloud.
How the Smart Counter Works From the machine to your dashboard
Stage 01, at the machine
Multiple Input & Control Options
Choose the input method and control option that best suits your production environment.
Sensor-based counting
- Connect photoelectric, proximity or mechanical sensors directly
- Each sensor pulse increments the production count automatically
- Supports NPN/PNP sensor types
PLC-based integration
- Receive counting signals from your PLC outputs
- Perfect for automated lines where PLC manages cycle logic
- Map PLC data to production-counting logic
Manual push-button counting
- Accept manual input for confirmation-based counting
- Ideal for processes requiring operator confirmation
- Simple and intuitive operation
Android app configuration
- Set targets and batch size
- Adjust brightness & display mode
- Reset counter or shift data
- Select job ID or operator ID
Stage 02, on the display
Smart LED Production Counter for Connected Manufacturing
Unlike basic counters, the Smart Production Counter Display can automatically fetch critical production data and display it in real time.
This makes it the perfect solution for modern factories that aim to eliminate manual entry, reduce errors and drive performance with connected, intelligent systems.
Automatic data fetching
- Job ID
- Target value
- Actual production count
- Shift details and operator ID
Stage 03, over the network
Smart Connectivity with Cloud & On‑Premise Software
Seamless integration with production management systems
Whether you use Robato's Cloud SaaS Production Monitoring System or an on-premise server, the smart counter automatically pushes and pulls data.
Cloud SaaS integration
- Real-time data sync through WiFi/Ethernet
- Access from anywhere with internet
- MQTT/API support for IoT platforms
On-premise server
- Hosted on factory server
- High security for controlled environments
- LAN-based connectivity
Stage 04, in the software
Multi-Machine and Smart TV Dashboards
The counts from every connected machine come together in one view, for supervisors at their desks and on the big screen in the control room.
Multi-machine dashboards
- Target vs actual performance
- Shift-wise and operator-wise insights
- Downtime alerts and colour-coded warnings
Smart TV dashboard
- View multiple machine counters on one screen
- Ideal for supervisor rooms and control centers
