Unlocking True Production Potential at Balti Spoon
Challenge
Balti Spoon, a leading manufacturer of high-quality veneer products, had a challenge: they didn’t know their maximum production capacity or the factors limiting it. Their machines were running, but inefficiencies remained hidden, making it difficult to optimize performance.
Despite operating at full speed, Balti Spoon lacked clear data on how much output their machines could truly achieve. Were unplanned stops the issue? Was machine speed inconsistent? Without accurate performance tracking, production bottlenecks remained a mystery.
Solution
GlobalReader introduced a two-sensor solution to provide a precise overview of machine performance. One sensor, installed with a current sensor, measured worktime (Availability), while the second, an induction sensor, tracked pcs produced (Performance). This setup ensured that when machines were running but not producing, the data clearly reflected it—something a single-sensor setup couldn't capture.
Following GlobalReader’s installation guidelines, Balti Spoon’s own technicians successfully installed the sensors, ensuring a smooth and efficient implementation. Additionally, real-time OEE tracking provided valuable insights into hidden inefficiencies.
Result
With precise, real-time data, Balti Spoon uncovered the reasons behind production slowdowns. The most significant improvement? Unplanned interruptions dropped from 30–35% to just 20%, leading to smoother operations and better resource utilization.
By harnessing GlobalReader’s data-driven approach, Balti Spoon could finally measure, analyze, and optimize their production like never before—unlocking their true manufacturing potential.
