Digital Signage in Manufacturing?
More and more manufacturers are showing interest in using LCDs on their plant floors. With digital signage, management can communicate vital information to hundreds of employees with the click of a button.
Deploying a LCD in a plant environment does involve some planning. The same dangers that harm a computer system also exist for a LCD. Dust, humidity, liquids and temperature fluctuations can wreak havoc on the display. Manufacturers recognize the need for a LCD enclosure, which are available in all shapes and sizes. Depending on the application, a LCD enclosure may be a protective shroud, fan cooled, air conditioned or purged for hazardous locations.
3 LCD Enclosure Trends for Manufacturing Environments
1. Safety
Company communication can be a real challenge on the plant floor. Many companies are turning to digital signage as an effective, efficient way to reach their employees. Workplace safety is top priority in manufacturing. Digital signage is an easily managed tool to improve workplace attitudes, behaviors and safety procedures.
2. Performance
As a way to keep employees motivated, digital signage can be utilized to display goals and statistics on performance. Keeping employees informed of key metrics, quality control or inventory levels can help drive motivation and align the company’s goals. Manufacturers can increase efficiency with the real-time presentation of statistics.
3. Critical Processes
Digital signage can help manufacturers display critical production line information. The notion of “set it and forget it” programming is especially beneficial to plant managers. Utilizing digital signage on a manufacturing floor can help reduce response time for production quality issues.
Now more than ever, visual communication is a powerful tool to engage, educate and inspire employees. Regardless if your goal is to improve performance, increase safety or empower your workforce, be sure to choose the right LCD enclosure that will keep your message running 24/7.
