Do you truly maximizes the lines you already have? In most processing facilities, there’s a gap between what the line is doing and what it could be doing. That gap may be caused by inefficiencies in changeovers, unplanned micro-stoppages, inconsistent material flow, operator variability, or lack of real-time visibility.

Most plants can start making better decisions with what they already have—or by adding one or two low-cost elements.
