A cycle report provides information for selected criteria over a variable time frame. In the context of industrial reporting, the report would represent
all the process information generated during the manufacture of a product e.g., temperatures during a heat cycle or the alarm activity during a reaction.
The time frame of a cycle is determined by manufacturing process conditions. In the following, a few examples are provided:
- Manufacturing
Beginning and end of stage of a manufacturing process
- Pharmaceutical
Beginning and end of the phases of a recipe/lot
- Water Treatment
Start and stop of backwash
- Power Generation
Start and stop of turbines
- Equipment Monitoring
Furnace operations and HVAC cycles
