Source-reported figures — cited source: rockwellautomation.com

The Challenge

Aging control infrastructure at the Ore-Ida Ontario, Oregon facility (producing 800 million pounds of frozen potato products annually) limited production capacity and flexibility for nearly 200 SKUs.

The Solution

FactoryTalk Analytics PavilionX MPC software assessing current and predicted operational data, comparing to desired results and optimizing process control for continuous potato processing operations.

Results

Increased production capacity. Prepared for long-term growth. Reduced product variability.

Key Takeaways

Model predictive control applied to continuous frozen food processing operations increases capacity by optimizing within constraints in real-time, justifying aging infrastructure upgrades through measurable production improvements.
