In 2001, factory floor engineers at ACI developed Factory Intelligence Network (FIN) -- a cost-effective yet powerful real-time process/performance tracking system that monitors the critical machine, process & production variables that affect your plant’s productivity & profitability, and provides the info you need to decrease downtime, reduce waste & cut costs.

FIN is a complete solution; there’s no need for you to buy a “suite” of products. With the software, you can monitor thousands of machine, process & production variables from a single computer. FIN can gather data from any combination of newer & legacy equipment, including PLC-enabled & non-PLC-enabled machines. The system is fully customized and installed by our factory floor pros for your specific needs, so there’s no need to rely on off-the-shelf software for your unique circumstances.
