Abstract
A textile beam management method is disclosed. The textile beam management method includes the following operations: reading the textile beam number of the textile beam; detecting a machine number of a machine; establishing a virtual reader, in which the virtual reader corresponds to the machine; registering the machine number in a report-back list; receiving an event of the machine; and saving the event and/or an ending time of a manufacturing process of the machine in the report-back list.
Claims20
A textile beam management method, comprising:
- reading a textile beam number of a textile beam;
- detecting a machine number of a machine;
- establishing a virtual reader, wherein the virtual reader corresponds to the machine;
- registering the machine number in a report-back list;
- receiving an event of the machine;
- and
- saving the event and/or an ending time of a manufacturing process of the machine in the report-back list.
A textile beam management system, comprising:
- a plurality of machines;
- a reader configured for reading a textile beam number of a textile beam, detecting a machine number of one of the machines, and transmitting the textile beam number and the machine number;
- a gateway configured for receiving the textile beam number of the textile beam and the machine number from the reader, and configured for establishing a virtual reader, wherein the virtual reader corresponds to the one of the machines, wherein the gateway is further configured for transmitting the textile beam number and the machine number;
- and
- a server configured for receiving the textile beam number and the machine number from the gateway, and configured for saving the machine number in a report-back list;
- wherein the gateway receives an event transmitted by the one of the machines and/or an ending time of a manufacturing process of the one of the machines, then the gateway transmits the event and/or the ending time of the manufacturing process of the one of the machines to the server through the virtual reader;
- wherein after the server receives the event and/or the ending time of the manufacturing process of the one of the machines, the server saves the event and/or the ending time of the manufacturing process of the one of the machines in the report-back list.
