Custom Web Control

About Production Orders

Production Orders is a professional-grade Custom Web Control (CWC) engineered for high-visibility manufacturing environments. It provides operators with a centralized interface to monitor and inspect manufacturing work orders with real-time precision. By integrating this component into your WinCC Unified or WinCC V8 project, you can transform raw production data into actionable insights through advanced status filtering and intuitive text search capabilities.

Key Features

• Real-Time Visualization: Displays order progress on a high-fidelity calibrated gauge, providing immediate clarity on production status.
• Comprehensive Batch Analytics: View critical batch details, including cycle times and scrap breakdowns, to identify bottlenecks instantly.
• Interactive Workflow: The control triggers the OrderSelected event for detailed inspections and the FilterChanged event to keep the HMI synchronized with operator actions.
• Advanced Methods: Utilize built-in methods such as selectOrder, setFilter, and clearSearch for seamless integration with external scripts and PLC logic.

Customization

The control is highly adaptable with 10 dedicated properties. Engineers can match corporate branding using backgroundColor and accentColor. The interface text is fully configurable via headerTitle, workQueueHeading, and searchPlaceholder. Additionally, the stationCode property enables clear identification of production lines, while the ordersData property handles complex JSON arrays for robust data binding. If no results are found, the emptyStateMessage provides clear feedback to the operator.

Use Cases

Ideal for discrete manufacturing execution systems (MES), assembly line tracking, and supervisor dashboards requiring real-time work-in-progress (WIP) monitoring and scrap management.

Compatibility

Designed for WinCC Unified (TIA Portal) and WinCC V8. Supports dynamic data binding to HMI tags for fluid updates.

💡 TIA Portal Reminder: Ensure the "Read only" option is unchecked in TIA Portal when linking tags to properties that require write access from the control. This is essential for the selectedOrderId and statusFilter properties to function correctly.
