Short interview-style excerpt about Guidewheel's plug-and-play FactoryOps platform describing a plant rollout: initial sampling on a small set of machines expanded to all (~100+) machines, installation of meters to monitor energy consumption and machine efficiency, reported recurring energy savings of about 10%, and automated daily email reports that send graphs (energy, production, OE) to managers for oversight.

Questions this video answers

Over 100 machines.

Approximately close to 10% savings.

Operational equipment efficiency (OE).

They receive automated daily emails containing graphs of all machines showing energy consumption, production, and OE.

We've got over 100 machines. So we started with a sampling fee with small set of machines. Now we have implemented the same meters in all our machines. Now when it was introduced to us, we were doing everything manually.
Since we started in the initial period.
We saw approximately about close to 10% of savings. And now at this period of time, like I said, it's a tool now to maintain those savings to avoid any wastages.
So at my level heading this production plant, on a daily basis we get production reports. I don't need to log in every day. I just get an email which shows me the graphs of all my machines. What the energy consumption was like, what the production was like, what our operational equipment efficiency, which is oe, what is that like.
For top management who are not involved on the day to day production activities on the floor? I think it's a great tool to monitor efficiency. For me and my position to sit here and just observe the OE tells me the whole story of what's going down on the floor.
