Case Study: Leading Fluid Milk Processing and Packaging Company improves production visibility with JMP Solutions

Leading Fluid Milk Processing and Packaging Company - Customer Case Study

Leading Fluid Milk Processing and Packaging Company partnered with JMP Solutions to address challenges in meeting production targets on its fluid milk filling and packaging lines. The company needed accurate, undisputed production data to identify root causes of downtime, performance losses, and quality issues, while also improving operator and supervisor engagement in continuous improvement.

JMP Solutions implemented a hybrid data collection solution using Rockwell Automation’s FactoryTalk Metrics and VantagePoint software, supported by line-side HMIs and machine control connectivity. This balanced automatic data capture with manual input to improve accountability and analysis, helping the customer hold fact-based review sessions and implement new procedures to address at least two major root causes of machine downtime, with plans to expand the solution across multiple lines.
