Scrap Analysis¶
Category: Scrap · Widget ID: scrap.pareto
What it shows¶
Analyzes and visualizes scrap reasons as a ranked (Pareto) breakdown, so you can see which reasons cause the most scrap.
Data and refresh¶
- Data source: Reports API.
- Time range: Respects the selected time period (aggregated over the whole window).
- Machine filter: Respects the selected machine(s).
- Widget locks: You can lock this widget to its own machine and/or time range (Machine lock / Time lock) so it ignores the dashboard filters. See Custom Dashboard.
Configuration¶
Open the slider menu, then select Configure. Apply with Confirm or discard with Close.
| Setting | Choices and default | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Group By | Scrap Reason (default), Machine, Track, Station | Combines scrap counts by reason, machine, track or station. Track/station comparisons need those values in the machine's scrap configuration. |
| Chart Type | Pareto Chart (default), Bar Chart, Pie Chart, Doughnut Chart, Table | Chooses a ranked chart, share chart or table. |
| Show Legend | On by default | Identifies chart series; hidden for Table. |
| Top N Results | 1-25, default 10 | Limits the number of ranked groups displayed. Confirm is disabled for invalid values. |

Machine/time locks are in the widget menu.
How to read it¶
Reasons are ranked by scrap quantity, largest first. Focus improvement on the top contributors.
Interactions¶

Troubleshooting¶
Widget shows no data -> No events in the selected machine/period, or a filter is too narrow -> Widen the time range or change the machine, then refresh once -> If a machine that normally reports data stays empty, use Troubleshooting > Connectivity.
