Case Study: Astrea Pharma Achieves 59% OEE Increase with Vimachem Manufacturing Analytics

Astrea Pharma boosts OEE from 41% to 65% with Vimachem

Astrea Pharma, a pharmaceutical manufacturer, faced operational challenges due to manual data collection on its packaging lines. This process led to unreliable data, a lack of real-time visibility, and difficulties in performance tracking and root cause analysis. To address this, they partnered with Vimachem to implement its Manufacturing Analytics and OEE solution.

Vimachem's solution was implemented with zero production disruption, integrating with existing systems to enable real-time data capture and paperless operations. This provided Astrea with clear dashboards and insights, leading to a significant 59% increase in OEE on their first production line, rising from 41% to 65%. The results included improved operator engagement, a reduction in planning time, and the establishment of a data-driven, performance-focused culture across all six packaging lines.
