- Automated Data Gathering and Real-Time Dashboards
Recognizing the need for a more efficient approach, the glass manufacturing factory turned to an online solution that automated data gathering and offered real-time dashboards for monitoring production line performance. By implementing this advanced system, the company gained instant access to critical data, enabling them to make data-driven decisions in real-time.
- Real-Time Insights and OEE Calculation
With the new system in place, the factory had access to real-time data on machine performance, production rates, and downtime events. The intuitive dashboards provided visual representations of key metrics, making it easier for product managers to identify bottlenecks and performance gaps. The calculation of Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) became seamless, providing a comprehensive measure of the production line's efficiency.
- Root Cause Analysis and Downtime Reduction
One of the remarkable benefits of the online solution was its ability to perform root cause analysis for downtime events. Through detailed data analysis, the factory could quickly identify the factors leading to machine stoppages and understand their impact on overall efficiency. Armed with this information, the product managers could implement targeted improvements, streamline processes, and minimize downtime.
