Case Study: North-Carolina-based Glass Manufacturer achieves 100% uptime and higher yield with RoviSys

North-Carolina-based Glass Manufacturer boosts yield 5% and hits 100% uptime with RoviSys

A North-Carolina-based glass manufacturer was facing a critical furnace failure and an obsolete control system. They required a full system modernization to be completed in just 12 months, a fraction of the standard timeline, to meet aggressive production goals including a 5% yield increase and significant energy savings. They partnered with RoviSys to implement a solution using the Siemens PCS7 platform.

RoviSys designed and built a highly redundant control system architecture to ensure maximum uptime. The solution was delivered on the demanding schedule and resulted in 100% operational uptime, improved diagnostics, and faster troubleshooting. The manufacturer exceeded its goals, achieving the targeted energy savings and surpassing the 5% production yield increase within two months of launch.
