Wiscon Products boosts machine utilization 30% with MachineMetrics

Wiscon Products, a manufacturer of precision parts, faced significant challenges with outdated and inaccurate manual data collection, which hindered their ability to make timely decisions and improve production processes. Their goals of reducing downtime and increasing equipment utilization were impeded by a lack of real-time insight into machine performance, cycle times, and downtime causes. To address this, they partnered with vendor MachineMetrics and implemented its machine data platform.

The solution from MachineMetrics provided Wiscon with complete visualization of real-time data, enabling a proactive approach to production management. The platform integrated with their existing systems and delivered actionable insights that pinpointed problems and guided improvements. As a result, Wiscon achieved a 30% increase in both machine utilization and overall capacity. They also saw a dramatic 250% increase in operator productivity and a 48% rise in operator efficiency, which translated to an average increase of $84K in sales per employee per year.
