Case Study: Wozniak Industries boosts uptime and OEE with Factbird

Wozniak Industries boosts OEE by 67% with Factbird

Wozniak Industries, Inc., a supplier of engineered metal solutions, faced challenges in measuring machine efficiency and operational performance due to extremely manual and delayed data collection processes. They partnered with vendor Factbird to implement its manufacturing intelligence solution to gain real-time insights and drive behavioral changes with data.

Factbird's solution involved plug-in tools that tied into the plant's PLCs and barcode scanners to register stop causes, providing simple and customizable data reporting. This enabled Wozniak Industries to achieve a 67% OEE improvement and a 25% increase in pieces per hour, resulting in a return on investment in under three months and a significant reduction in operational costs.
