Consolidate reading meters into a single meter

NDD Orbix allows you to transform multiple raw reading meters (collected directly from printers) into consolidated meters, facilitating data visualization and the customer billing process.

The system already offers 5 default meters, with calculation rules adapted to each manufacturer and with the flexibility option enabled:

  • A4 Mono
