Heat maps for lean manufacturing and workplace safety
Establish actionable insights from manufacturing defects and continuous or trending discrepancies
Track production defects through EDN’s unique mobile heat mapping tool. Start evaluating poor quality, process concerns and safety issues through a visual heat map so that you can uncover the disturbance source.
Manufacturing Heat Map Tracking & Reporting. Made for Industry
Discover immense versatility using a simple manufacturing Heat Map tool integrated with your audits and inspection processes.
Leverage visual inspection data with data visualization that quickly communicates its data to the viewer, using easy-to-understand color gradations which prompts a deeper analysis of the hot spots.
Site and Workplace Heat Maps
Frequent occurrences of safety issues, human movement, bottlenecks in processes or factory layout, can disrupt the efficiency of your workplace. Utilizing a heat map to track flow and frequencies will give you and your safety and operations managers a hotspot overview of how this reoccurrence affects overall performance. This visual interpretation of how workers and process movement is functioning at your location can give you a larger picture of the causes of the issue and how it can be addressed.
Implementing a simple heat map tool will deliver insightful information for operational teams to be more adaptive and agile, creating new process flows within a working space. This ideology of people movement within a factory or workspace has never presented a clearer understanding as with this technology today. Real-time input tracking can prompt real time change. With people, products and sometimes equipment moving through the shift, you can quickly see shortfalls or room for improvement by identifying where events happened on your heat map.
Lean manufacturing has always focused on getting from A to B in the best manner without room for error, damage or downtime. Now, heat mapping gives an intuitive insight into the elements that enhance lean manufacturing process layout.
Whether for safety, to protect workers from a habitual danger, or for cost reduction through improved performance, this simple heat map tool could significantly change the way you see your facility layout. EDN delivers the foresight you’ve always walked past.

Defect Heat Maps
Modernize your process improvement to optimize your ability to root cause defects. Start removing the obstacles of untimely data with a precise capture of production and machine trends and clear data throughout the shift/day/week. Use a digital manufacturing heat map tool with your inspection processes and discover hidden issues a paper checklist form could never expose.
Visual Inspection with Visual Reporting
Visual inspection has been around for as long as quality for consumers has been important. It is the simplest inspection technique. Using a heat map to pinpoint ongoing quality concerns is a big step to innovating process improvement for enhanced quality practices.
The simplicity of a heat map for engineers and production managers allows them to identify and investigate defective regions, in the process eliminating other areas that they don’t need to spend time on. Failure analysis and missed issues become faster and easier to identify as the heat map establishes coloured trends.
Track non-conformance with a heat map and add image and video capture as support. EDN allows line workers/audits to record defects in real-time for management act on and reduce defect rates through corrective action.
Relevant digital manufacturing tools for relevant times
With a manufacturing heat map tool combined with SPC (Statistical Process Control) collection tool your team can work through the process flow to root cause the reoccurring errors to establish permanent corrective actions and scheduled maintenance.
Visual control in quality has only realized its true power for manufacturers as technology has caught up to the principles and cost of quality. The EDN Heat Map tool puts data into your hands from the shop floor, other to facilities and remote locations so that you can react faster, prevent downtime and improve your operational KPIs.
Continuous monitoring doesn’t have to start with million-dollar investments into new machines and IoT gages. EDN’s mobile solution can get you up and running promptly and efficiently with the team you have working today, so that you can grow your performance tomorrow.
