Tetro Factory's Efficiency Improvements

Tetro factory had the following challenges: - Controlling the production flow, tracing mistakes and optimizing performance. - Running a fully integrated knowledge-based business with systems that work seamlessly together. - Centralizing manufacturing production data into one system that can be viewed and analyzed from a single-point-of-entry. - Pinpointing in real-time which stations are compromising production and what can be done to restore and improve efficiency. -Implementing preventative maintenance and ensuring minimum downtime. - Monitoring energy consumption and optimizing material consumption per product.

Tetro factory implemented the LeaderMES system to tackle the aforementioned challenges. The LeaderMES system with its plug-and-play modules were deployed across the production floor became instrumental to Tetro's operational success and long term vision of a fully visible, connected and knowledge-based factory. Being open and flexible, LeaderMES was configured to integrate with Tetro's internal business intelligence and validation systems to meet its specific traceability and analysis requirements. LeaderMES gave Tetro full visibility of their floor operations and material management enabled the team to monitor and track the entire plant's day-to-day operations and resource usage in real time. It also enabled predictive maintenance that reduced unplanned downtime.

• [Cost Reduction - Overall]
  Real-time monitoring of resource consumption helped the firm to save costs.
• [Efficiency Improvement - Production Uptime]
  Predictive maintenance reduced costly unplanned downtimes.
• [Data Management - Data Collection]
  Accumulating manufacturing data allows the firm to manage their "SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities & Threats) process" to maximize advantages and reduce risks.

• In less than a month of using the LeaderMES system, the firm's overall energy efficiency improved by more than 30%.

• Time to market was also reduced by 25%.
