Bring equipment status into the work your team already tracks. Worklocker’s integration design uses Fort Emerald to connect machine signals, approved automation and maintenance to the job.
Example site · Production floor
ARM-07 · Assembly cell
The controller reported an updated count for the assembly batch.
Add a fixture inspection to the next scheduled service window.
Operator review · Maintenance review
PRT-03 · Additive workshop
The print service reported progress on the fixture run.
Schedule the part inspection after the print finishes.
Operator review · Schedule review
EXT-02 · Process line
The controller reported a variation during the current batch.
Draft an inspection task to review the variation with the line operator.
Operator review · Operator review pending
PMP-12 · Plant utilities
The site gateway recorded its last reading for this pump.
Ask the maintenance team to check the gateway and confirm the pump’s current status on site.
Operator review · On-site check needed
Each integration starts with the machine’s published interface and the information your team needs. The equipment, site gateway and approved actions are verified during commissioning.
The machine interface provides selected states, readings, faults and job progress.
The gateway maps selected tags or API fields to equipment IDs, units and timestamps.
The control layer checks identity, policy and approvals. It records decisions and available feedback from the machine.
The dashboard brings machine status and activity into the job, schedule and maintenance record.
Find the type of equipment you run, then identify its controller or published API. Connection options and actions depend on the installed interface and approved integration scope.
A team can start with monitoring and work orders, then define specific automation requests for a commissioned connection.
Local interlocks and emergency stops retain control. A stale reading or missing acknowledgement remains open for follow-up.
Check when the value was reported and match the equipment to the right job.
AI can summarize an event, suggest an inspection or draft a request for a mapped operation.
Fort Emerald checks the requester’s role, the target and the permitted action. Once any required operator approval is recorded, the gateway receives the authorized request.
The local controller applies its own safeguards. Record the acknowledgement and any fresh machine reading with the Worklocker job.
Bring the equipment model, its published interface and the job or maintenance step you want to connect.
