Created by Mincom, now known as Ventyx, the LinkOne WinView comprises of a huge database of machine parts with images and detailed information about their functions. This illustrative library cuts down the time it takes operations managers and maintenance personnel to identify the industrial equipment and its parts they needed for repairs and replacements. LinkOne connects dealers of original and after-market parts with operators through the Web or an intranet within a virtual private network. This content delivery system also provides businesses with updated technical manuals. It compiles existing information in the library and assembles the parts of the equipment for the users to study in a simulated environment to find the engine parts and their serial numbers. In addition, the catalogs and manuals come with documentation, instructional videos, and safety warnings for the service and maintenance staff working at any location in the world.
Ventyx, which was previously known as Mincom, developed this graphical library of machine parts that matches their number and description with the images, documentation, safety guidelines, and instructional materials to help operators and maintenance staff in figuring out the things that are needed to be done in order to fix their equipment as soon as possible. This system creates a network of clients and dealers of industrial parts from brand manufacturers and after-market distributors through the Internet. Users can compile the part's data from the library and simulate the assembly of an engine or machine to find the broken part and take note of its serial ID. Based on the part's number, operations personnel can search through the database and find all relevant information about that engine part, including available dealers in their area. Integrating the software into the inventory system helps operators track the parts that must be replaced after they became obsolete or heavily depreciated.
Mincom LinkOne WebView is a Web portal by Mincom that allows users to view their LinkOne data. Information such as product bulletins, maintenance manuals and delivery of part catalogs are accessible in Internet Explorer 7 or 8, Firefox 3.5, Safari 4 and Chrome 3 browsers with the use of this software. It acts as a standalone website that features multilingual adaptability, which permits published books to be shown in any language. It has Shared Libraries and Shared Notes options that support publishing of books and reading notes directly from shared libraries. Users can choose to filter contents like pictures, pages and overlays, and create selection lists. They can also assign roles to control groups of users using this program. Users are generated directly in the Web site, and are provided with an administration log-in. Standard Microsoft Asp.net technology was used as its security provider.
