What Real Pet Food Company was trying to fix

Australia's largest pet food manufacturer had disparate, outdated systems across factories in Australia, New Zealand, China, and England, resulting from growth through acquisitions. Data was manually collected and disjointed, limiting visibility into efficiency, waste reduction, and product quality.

What Real Pet Food Company deployed

Real Pet Food engaged Kalypso, a Rockwell Automation business, which deployed FactoryTalk InnovationSuite, FactoryTalk View, Allen-Bradley controllers, and PowerMonitor energy monitoring as a middleware platform connecting all systems and assets.

Results

The company achieved integrated and automated manufacturing operations with the ability to collect, visualize, and analyze data across global facilities. Energy management improved and standardization across all global manufacturing facilities was established.

Key Takeaways

  • A middleware platform approach enables manufacturers to connect disparate legacy systems without full replacement
  • Standardizing data collection and visualization across acquired factories delivers the ROI of the acquisition faster
  • Combined process automation and energy monitoring in one platform supports sustainability goals while improving operational efficiency
