Case Study: Flexco improves production planning and utilization with MachineMetrics

Flexco boosts productivity 16.5% with MachineMetrics

Flexco, a manufacturer of belt maintenance products, faced a challenge in aligning production planning with execution across its diverse equipment. They needed to identify hidden capacity to meet rising demand but had struggled with other IoT vendors. Flexco implemented the MachineMetrics platform to collect, standardize, and analyze machine data to pinpoint improvement opportunities.

MachineMetrics provided a scalable solution that integrated with all machine types, automating data collection and delivering actionable insights. The results included a 16.5% productivity increase on a critical product line by re-tooling an underutilized machine and a 100% increase in employee engagement due to improved data visibility. These outcomes have driven Flexco's plans to further leverage machine data and integrate it with their ERP system.
