LineView Navigator
Lineview lists its UK headquarters in Bromsgrove, United Kingdom.
What it is
LineView Navigator turns factory data into operational guidance for manufacturing teams, with a focus on high-speed bottling and filling operations. Its Monitor module continuously updates OEE, throughput, line speed, and operational mode using production data read directly from PLC code at sub-second frequency. It ranks stops and deviations by their impact on output, including micro-stoppages under 30 seconds. Review produces shift, day, and week reports with cross-shift comparisons, while Analyse compares lines, sites, and regions and examines causal-loss trends over 90 days. SmartWorker offers guided procedures for shift handovers, root cause analysis, centrelining audits, and CIL checks. AMI answers operational questions using Navigator data and can identify recurring losses, declining MTBF, and data-quality issues. The platform connects with PLCs, historians, MES, and ERP systems, and can send data to BI tools and reporting platforms. Lineview describes role-specific views and 24/7 real-time cloud access. Pricing is available on request.
