Case Study: Amcor achieves a 25% productivity improvement with Advantive Kiwiplan MSM

Amcor MSM Machine Speed Modeling (MSM) Assists Amcor Fibre Packaging in Achieving a 25% Productivity Improvement

Advantive worked with Amcor Fibre Packaging to address a challenge with machine productivity. The operators at the Amcor facility were running machines well below their name plate speeds, operating within a narrow "Comfort Zone" that limited overall output. This static operation prevented the company from identifying genuinely difficult jobs and achieving optimal production efficiency.

The solution implemented was Advantive's Kiwiplan Machine Speed Modeling (MSM) software. This system dynamically set accurate speed targets for each job based on its specific parameters and the machine's capability, providing clear visual performance feedback to operators on the factory floor. As a direct result of the Advantive solution, a pilot project on a specific machine yielded a 25% productivity improvement, leading to a full regional rollout of the software.
