Whatever You Manufacture, You're Losing the Same Way
Different machines, different processes, the same losses hiding in the data. Here's how XL tracks them on your line.
Same Setup. Same Reports. Any Industry.
Every Industry Feeds the Same Platform
Whatever you manufacture, the same sensors, the same reports and the same results apply.
The Machine Doesn't Matter. The Count Does.
Three reasons XL drops onto a line without caring what the line does.
Any Brand, Any Equipment
XL doesn't care what you manufacture or whose logo is on the machine. It reads counts and cycles from the sensors, encoders, photo-eyes or proximity switches you already have, with no proprietary integrations or custom development.
One Setup, Every Site
An automotive supplier tracking press uptime and a bakery tracking oven changeovers install XL the same way and read the same reports. Roll it out plant by plant without reinventing the setup each time.
Old Machines Included
If a piece of equipment produces a count or a cycle, XL can read it, whether that's a line installed last year or one that predates the plant's current owner.
Built for Your Equipment, Not a Generic Line
The equipment and the losses that matter change by industry. The platform underneath doesn't.

XL is already running in industries like these, and several more we haven't listed. If your process produces a count or a cycle, it's likely a fit.
Customer Stories
See How a Confectionery Manufacturer Replaced Guesswork With Data
A long-established confectionery manufacturer needed more capacity and a more predictable line, without a disruptive IT project. XL gave them continuous visibility of downtime, performance and OEE, replacing the periodic line studies they relied on before.
See How an Automotive Supplier Is Building Its XL Story
A Tier 1 automotive supplier is currently trialling XL across two stamping lines. Full results, including changeover and OEE improvements, will be published once the trial concludes.
See How a Food Producer Is Building Its XL Story
A food and beverage producer is currently onboarding XL across its filling and case-packing lines. Full results will be published once the trial concludes.
It Monitors Output, Not Equipment
Which is why it works just as well on a 30-year-old stamping press with no programmable logic controller (PLC) as it does on a brand new line.
High-speed lines
Tablet presses running hundreds of cycles a second.
Legacy equipment
Decades-old stamping presses with no PLC.
Mixed-vendor lines
Filler from one manufacturer, capper from another, case packer from a third.
Harsh conditions
Metal fabrication plants with dust, heat and vibration.
Clean rooms
Pharmaceutical lines you can't modify or requalify.
Manual processes
Semi-automated assembly and kitting operations.
The only requirement is a digital signal that marks a count or cycle, whether that's a photo-eye, a proximity switch, a relay, an encoder or a PLC output. If your equipment produces one, XL can read it, without touching your PLC code, your validated processes or any proprietary protocol.
Not Sure If XL Works on Your Equipment?
We've monitored everything from industrial door manufacturing to confectionery wrapping lines to aircraft component assembly. If your process produces counts or cycles, even intermittently, XL can track it.
No modern PLC required.
XL reads a signal straight from the sensor, not from your control system.
No dedicated IT network.
XL connects to a standard ethernet line on your existing plant network.
No sensors already in place.
We'll help you choose and fit them.
No downtime tracking already running.
XL is often the first system on the line.
No monitoring system already installed.
XL works standalone or alongside what you already have.
