How Smart Manufacturing Software Benefits the Medical Manufacturing Sector
The competitive and highly regulated medical sector is one of the fastest growing segments of today’s manufacturing marketplace. This rapid growth requires smart management—of assets, budgets, processes and more.
How Smart Manufacturing Software Can Improve Efficiency
To thrive in today’s competitive manufacturing environment, you need to ensure optimal performance of assets while continuously increasing efficiency and reducing costs.
To improve processes, you must be able to measure in real-time what is working and what isn’t. Outdated data or a lack of current data can add to a growing performance problem, putting productivity, efficiency, and profitability at risk.
Your factory floor is an excellent example of where you should be continually capturing and analyzing data.
How Automation is Reshaping Manufacturing
Over the past decade, the manufacturing industry moved from reactive to predictive data analysis to monitor equipment, extend asset lifecycles and manage overall profitability. Today, the future is trending toward the use of advanced analytics applications that enable manufacturers to intelligently meet increased demand for customized products created at affordable mass-production costs while improving operational efficiency and overall productivity. Are you keeping pace with this shift?
Why Collecting and Analyzing Data Is a Must for Improving Productivity
Collecting and analyzing data is crucial to ensuring long-term productivity and sustainability of operations. Detailed manufacturing metrics from machine monitoring software facilitate the optimization of shop-floor assets, improve overall productivity, and protect the bottom line.
Without this critical information, manufacturers cannot identify which aspects of an asset’s operational efficiency and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE)—availability, performance, and quality—are lagging. As a result, companies fail to identify where inefficiencies and bottlenecks may be occurring, placing valuable production time and money at risk.
