A Guidewheel Case Study
Fibrix Filtration faced a challenge common in manufacturing: a lack of visibility into machine downtime on its critical production lines. Without consistent data or clear causes for stops, the team at its Rogersville plant was forced to make decisions based on assumptions, hindering their ability to improve efficiency and understand true capacity.
By implementing Guidewheel's simple clip-on sensors and real-time monitoring system, Fibrix Filtration gained immediate visibility. The Guidewheel solution enabled the team to identify recurring issues, tag downtime events in real time, and drive accountability across shifts. This resulted in a disciplined process that achieved over 90% uptime for an entire year on their most critical line and a 22% reduction in unplanned downtime within a month at a second plant, scaling a new culture of operational excellence.
