Insight & Control Drive Savings

gumlinkEvery 1% increase in efficiency helps you make more products in less time. Increasing efficiency while driving out cost is ever more critical in today’s environment where CPG manufacturers must protect operating margins. These goals are more easily attainable when you have a solid foundation of reliability and predictability, and deep insight that exposes data relationships between materials, equipment and product mix to drive proactive production.

Our powerful PACSystems controllers and Proficy Plant Applications software help you maximize the utilization of your equipment, directly improving production capacity, reducing running costs, and maximizing uptime. By integrating data assets along production routes with advanced analysis, you can gain a comprehensive view into factors such as OEE, equipment downtime, waste, production quantity, inventory, production schedules and genealogy—providing a clear and very detailed perspective of how your products are being produced.

Our innovative software also provides end-to-end batch traceability—from raw material receiving to finished goods—and automatically associates process quality, efficiency, and production dates to these batches. Being able to predict and react to changing materials and process dynamics ensures first-pass quality every time and reduced costs, and helps determine the ideal conditions from which to generate maximum yield.
