Connected dataShot signals, temperature and pressure, production results, and equipment status
Measured result100% production counting accuracy and an 80% reduction in administrator work time

Implementation

Equipment signals replaced manual counting, while a monitoring view gave managers a consistent view of production and equipment operation.

Outcome

Recording production from the shot signal removed the gap between manual counts and actual output, bringing counting accuracy to 100% and cutting the time administrators spent reconciling counts by 80%.

100% production counting accuracy and an 80% reduction in administrator work time

Validation method

Automated counts were reconciled with production records, and administrator counting time was compared before and after implementation.
