Cutting setup times with Opti Assist
At a glance
Carl Hansen & Søn uses OptiPeople Data Platform to create more accurate production insight and is piloting Opti Assist to reduce setup times through better production sequencing.
How OptiPeople Data Platform is used
OptiPeople Data Platform provides reliable data on machinery performance, which gives the company a stronger basis for strategic decisions and operational analysis.
Operators support that work by logging downtime reasons, making it easier to identify where productivity can be improved.
Operators also select the specific item being produced, allowing cycle times to be adjusted accordingly in OptiPeople Data Platform. That creates more accurate production data and supports more precise operational follow-up.
The Opti Assist pilot
Carl Hansen is also piloting Opti Assist to optimize production order sequencing.
The goal is to reduce setup times by suggesting a more efficient order sequence and minimizing transitions between production orders.
The result
Together, the setup is intended to give Carl Hansen:
- more accurate productivity insight
- better targeting of improvement areas
- more precise cycle-time handling
- reduced setup times
- higher overall productivity
