What Rockline Industries was trying to fix
Rockline Industries' Sheboygan plant, manufacturing millions of wet-wipe canisters weekly, had below-50% OEE across its manufacturing cells in 2006. Manual data collection provided no real-time insight into machine production, performance, and activities needed to drive improvement.
What Rockline Industries deployed
FactoryTalk Metrics software was deployed by Stone Technologies to monitor plant-floor equipment and provide accurate, timely, granular information on machine production, performance, and activities across five large manufacturing cells.
Results
Each of the five manufacturing cells demonstrated an OEE increase of more than 20% compared to prior implementation. This directly translated to higher capacity and revenue without adding capital equipment.
Key Takeaways
- Replacing manual data collection with real-time OEE monitoring systems can deliver 20%+ OEE improvements across manufacturing cells
- For high-demand consumer goods manufacturers, every 5% increase in OEE directly translates to additional revenue capacity
- Automated performance monitoring across multiple production cells simultaneously provides insights that manual systems physically cannot deliver
