Automated Manufacturing Announcement Applications


(PV-4 Installation)

Emergencies - Tornado warnings, chemical incidents, oxygen depletion, medical crises, and many other emergencies can be announced with the critical details necessary for immediate and effective response.

Equipment - Want to monitor your production line? Maybe you need a technician or a material handler to be summoned to a specific machine by the operator, but you don't want him to leave the work station? Simply place a switch panel at each machine, connect to PRO-VOICE, and your facility will function more efficiently as critical announcements are spoken in real-time.

PRO-VOICE is ideal for "just in time manufacturing". Since real-time audible feedback is provided to everyone, or to just a selected area, employee response time will be improved. Would you like to be notified when critical production equipment has stopped or is not meeting performance standards? It may seem indelicate for information like this to be broadcast across your facility, but when an unplanned shut-down means lowered profit and wasted human resources, this could be the solution.

Maybe you'd like to give your robot a voice! Connect the serial communication port of a PRO-VOICE unit to the robot's controller. As the robot communicates with PRO-VOICE, speech can be achieved!

Utilities - Wise management of your resources could be critical in minimizing downtime and maximizing profits! Simple sensors and switches connected to PRO-VOICE make it easy to monitor pumps, filters, HVAC units, pressure levels, tank levels, environment, control panels, and much more. This application is one of the most popular PRO-VOICE uses.

Shift Changes, Lunches and Breaks - By utilizing PRO-VOICE with a PC's Task Manager and RS-232, you can achieve a great deal of organization within your facility. Simply select a message and the time you wish for it to be announced. Since a PC can be synchronized to atomic time sources, precisely timed events are easily achieved.

Exit Doors - Most companies want to monitor entrances and exits, and prefer not to have doors left open. Using PRO-VOICE with magnet security type switches or plunger switches at all your exterior doors, you can be notified when doors are opened or left open too long. In addition, the system can announce which door is compromised. Consider it a security enhancement for a moment.

Visitor Notice - Do you have several entry doors for visitors, or maybe you just want an announcement when a visitor comes to the front door? We can do that. The PRO-VOICE system can announce the specific door being used by a visitor, delivery driver, pizza guy, or intruder. The announcement can be made area wide or at any location or locations designated. PRO-VOICE can be a vital component in securing your environment.

How can the PRO-VOICE system improve your business?

Preventing production losses and reducing down-time is vital for manufacturing and the responsibilities are enormous. Why trust your investment to anything less than the latest technology? PRO-VOICE ANNOUNCEMENT SYSTEMS are the most advanced warning and notification systems available. PRO-VOICE can be customized to meet the unique requirements of your production equipment or facilities. Early detection of equipment failure can be announced in a human voice, identifying the exact equipment malfunction. An announcement of a tornado in the local area and the indicated response action can be spoken in a clear and calm voice, minimizing panic. PRO-VOICE can direct management and emergency personnel to a problem area by specifying exactly where the emergency is located. Bells and buzzers cause confusion. PRO-VOICE technology eliminates delayed response and human error. PRO-VOICE can be multi-lingual and can be set to repeat until no longer needed. PRO-VOICE ANNOUNCEMENT SYSTEMS for manufacturing are SUPERIOR in performance.

The possibilities are endless!
