Case Study: Stanley Black & Decker reduces unplanned downtime with Raven

How Stanley Black & Decker Warrington Identified Root Causes of Unplanned Downtime

Stanley Black & Decker faced challenges with unreliable, manual pen-and-paper downtime tracking at their Warrington site, which led to missed data, unknown losses, and delayed issue resolution. They sought a digital solution from Raven to automatically capture machine data, simplify operator input, and provide real-time performance visibility.

Raven implemented its OEE software with Smart Assistants and Automated Downtime Labeling, which integrated with machine PLCs to auto-label faults and prompt operators only when needed. This solution from Raven led to 100% contextualization of unplanned downtime, identified key root causes, and reduced operator data entry burden by 56%, unlocking significant capacity and improvement opportunities.
