Downtime Video AnalysisSee the moment the line stopped. On video, not only in the log.
A camera over the line lets you open the video of any stop or slowdown on the timeline. Your team sets the cause; suggested causes are on our roadmap.
- One overhead camera at the workstation
- Video streamed on request, not stored by default
- Your team sets the cause

A camera over the line
One overhead camera above or beside the workstation streams video you can open for any moment on the timeline, including a stop.
For camera counting and OEE, see computer vision.On our roadmap: it marks the moment and suggests a cause
Planned: at a micro-stop, a drop in speed or an unexpected stop, it will mark the time, link the video and suggest likely causes.
Suggested: no material
Suggested: operator waiting
Suggested: broken part
Your team checks the video
Open the video for the stop, then set or correct the downtime code. You see the moment itself, not only what was logged.

FAQs
How many cameras does it take?
One overhead camera above or beside each workstation it covers. The number per line is agreed after a review of your process.
Is the video stored?
Not in Fabrico, in the standard setup. Video for a stop is streamed when someone opens it on the timeline. Who can open it is set by role. How long video can be opened, and any other setup, is agreed per plant in writing.
Does the system decide the cause?
No. Your team sets the downtime code. Suggested causes from visual and operational data, after a learning phase on your line, are on our roadmap.

How it supports continuous improvement
Supervisors watch the video of the stop before running interviews or reading logs. CI engineers and team leaders spot patterns and start KAIZEN work on recurring micro-stops, material feeding or operator workflows. It builds on OEE software and downtime tracking software.
What else the camera can do
The same camera setup can help where sensors may not be enough, such as manual or hybrid stations. Models adapted to your line can count output. See computer vision and the other AI add-ons.
