Production
counting allows people to know how they are doing with respect to other
people and to company goals. This helps to improve production flow and helps
to spot production bottlenecks. |

What do Digital Counters do? Digital LED counters are often used
to display the quantity of units produced by a machine or by a production line.
Examples include stamping machines, milling machines, sewing, transmission
assemblies, bottling or packing operations, scanning and sorting, and fluid use.
How do Digital Counters operate? Typical operation is applying a
voltage input or a contact closure. The counter increments. The voltage level
depends upon the application and environment. Sometimes a photocell is used to
sense a unit of production or a case of parts. Resetting is done by applying
another signal to the reset input. Some counters may be preset to a goal, and
decremented. When reaching zero, the goal has been reached and an alarm could be
signaled.

Counting production is useful to increasing production by keeping the plant
and shift goals in mind. Establishment of goals allows people to know how they
stand, and to invent new ways to do the same job, better. |
