Digital Signage for Manufacturing
Empower Productivity and Safety at Work with Smart Digital Signage
Communication issues cost manufacturing time, money, and safety. Valotalive’s industrial digital signage solves this by delivering real-time KPIs, safety alerts, and updates to all teams, unifying desk and non-desk workers with automated, live information on screens where work happens.
The Communication Gap in Manufacturing: Why Traditional Methods Fail
In non-desk environments, critical updates often get buried in emails or outdated printouts, lost in handovers, or delayed by shift changes. The result: disconnected teams, missed targets, and safety risks.
Valotalive solves this with a shop floor messaging system built for industrial speed. With digital communication for industrial teams, you can deliver the right message to the right screen – automatically and in real time.
Whether it’s real-time production dashboards, live KPIs, or urgent safety alerts, content flows directly from your existing tools (like Excel, Power BI, or MES) to digital notice boards for factories, without manual steps. That means your entire operation – from management to machine operators – stays aligned.
What you can achieve with Valotalive’s industrial digital signage:
- Reach every worker, every time. Engage non-desk teams with hyper-relevant updates delivered straight to where they work – no extra effort required.
- Display real-time KPIs and production dashboards. Show live metrics on throughput, quality, or OEE to drive performance on the shop floor.
- Enhance safety with dynamic alerts. Push emergency notifications and compliance reminders instantly to all workplace safety signage.
- Improve operational efficiency and uptime. Share machine status, shift goals, and maintenance updates to avoid delays and bottlenecks.
- Support lean manufacturing with visual tools. Reinforce lean practices and eliminate waste with clear, targeted manufacturing visual displays. … and much more
Improve Workplace Safety & Productivity with Targeted Real-Time Updates
Operational success depends on two things: clarity and timing. But in manufacturing environments, traditional communication methods fall short – especially for deskless teams working in fast-paced, high-risk settings.
Valotalive’s industrial digital signage system delivers targeted, automated updates straight to the point of need. From safety alerts and live KPIs to shift updates and recognition messages, the right content appears on the right screen at the right time – no printing, no chasing, no manual steps.

- Share performance metrics and goals across teams to drive accountability
- Push live safety alerts to reduce risk and ensure compliance
- Sync updates between shifts and departments to maintain momentum
- Display real-time dashboards from Power BI, Excel, or MES tools
- Engage non-desk workers with visual, hyper-relevant updates
- Celebrate success and boost morale by recognizing teams and milestones
By unifying your factory floor communication, Valotalive helps create a safer, more efficient, and more connected workplace, without increasing anyone’s workload.
