Case Study: Leading Sinter & Metals Multinational Company achieves 75% reduction in operating times and improved tool traceability with Tulip

Tulip apps helped this customer reduce operating times by 75% in less than 3 months

Leading Sinter & Metals Multinational Company, a sinter-metals manufacturer serving the aerospace industry, struggled to track thousands of molds and tools across production. Poor user interfaces and manual data entry made real-time tool status inaccessible, preventing accurate production planning and inflating tooling inventory and costs. The vendor Tulip was engaged to address these challenges using Tulip apps and IoT devices.

Tulip implemented automated tool-tracking with Tulip apps and IoT connectivity, eliminating manual data errors, improving traceability, and enabling accurate planning of tool counts and refurbishments. As a result, the customer reduced operating times by 75% in under three months, lowered tooling inventory and total production costs, and minimized downtime through better maintenance and lifetime estimation.
