Case Study: a leading potato chips brand achieves better efficiency and reduced waste with LSI - Logical Systems Inc.

Leading Potato Chips Brand - Customer Case Study

The customer, a leading potato chips brand, required complex automation upgrades across nine production lines in six North American facilities with minimal operational downtime. They engaged LSI (Logical Systems Inc) to manage significant modifications to their PLC5, ControlLogix, Wonderware, and APC QuickStudy systems, which needed to be thoroughly simulated and tested prior to deployment.

LSI leveraged its geographically distributed team to provide a centrally managed solution, executing the multi-site installation and commissioning within a compressed timeline. The vendor's work resulted in drastically improved operational efficiency, including a 40-50% reduction in waste and enhanced potato chip quality through better process control, while also providing operators with superior data for decision-making.
