Heavy Equipment Manufacturer
Heavy equipment manufacturer challenged by lack of visibility into downtime
For a maker of construction mining and forestry equipment, weld integrity is of paramount importance. This manufacturer’s welding process experienced multiple unplanned stoppages.
Sight Machine provided a scalable solution to aggregate, store, analyze, and visualize data from hundreds of robot welding machines. This allowed concise data blending, visualization, access, and product evaluation.
Visibility into metrics, including availability, downtime reasons, and key performance indicator, E, where E = weld deposit (kg) / cycle time (hr). Analyzed 60K cycles across the fleet of robot welders to gain correlated insight into the cause to accelerate corrective actions, reducing downtime and bottlenecks.
