Case Study: Royal Technologies achieves 5–10% higher factory uptime and $20,000 annual savings with Google Chrome digital signage

Royal Technologies - Customer Case Study

Royal Technologies, a 25‑year‑old Michigan engineering and manufacturing firm with about 1,200 employees, needed a more reliable way to keep factory-floor teams informed with up‑to‑date production data. Their legacy digital signage was costly and hard to manage, so they sought an affordable, easy‑to‑deploy solution that would display real‑time metrics and improve shop‑floor communication.

With help from partner Promevo, they switched to Chrome‑powered Chromebits and Chromeboxes managed through the Google Admin Console, enabling 15‑minute deployments and automatic content updates every 15 seconds. The new digital signage raised machine uptime by 5–10%, saved roughly $20,000 in the first year, proved more durable in a dusty, hot manufacturing environment, and has been rapidly expanded across multiple locations.
