Turatti Sees Increased Productivity in Its Food Washing Machinery

Turatti, an Italian food washing machinery OEM, experienced high downtime rates on its machines that reduced customer productivity and satisfaction. The company needed to improve machine reliability while offering customers better visibility into their food processing operations.

Turatti integrated Rockwell Automation controls and connected monitoring capabilities into its food washing machines. The solution enabled remote diagnostics and predictive maintenance capabilities that could identify issues before they caused production stoppages.

Turatti achieved an 80% reduction in machine downtime through the improved control and predictive maintenance capabilities. Customers benefited from dramatically more reliable food washing operations and improved overall equipment effectiveness.

An 80% downtime reduction in food washing machinery demonstrates that most machine failures are predictable and preventable with proper monitoring. Connected OEM machines that report health data back to manufacturers enable proactive service before customer downtime occurs. Food processing equipment downtime has outsized costs due to the perishable nature of products in the production pipeline.
