Case Study: Roseburg achieves $472K in downtime cost avoidance with Augury Machine Health

How a Roseburg plant is working to transform the way they do business through Machine Health

Roseburg, a long-established forest products manufacturer, wanted to improve reliability at its Simsboro, Louisiana plant as equipment failures were causing downtime, repair costs, production delays, and missed shipments. To address these issues, the company turned to Augury’s Machine Health solution, a digital machine monitoring and diagnostics platform designed to help plants identify mechanical problems before they lead to breakdowns.

Augury implemented a scalable, cloud-based monitoring program integrated with Roseburg’s maintenance operations, giving the team actionable insights into asset health across critical machines like blowers, compressors, dryers, and fans. Within the first week, the plant was already uncovering hidden issues, and over eight months it identified 21 major faults and helped avoid more than $472,000 in production loss; one RTO fan issue alone prevented a potential $126,000 catastrophic failure.
