Digital Manufacturing

Digital technology on the shop floor and throughout production activities intelligently connects your manufacturing workforce to the rest of the business, while creating the foundation for optimized manufacturing operations through advanced technologies.

The solution paid for itself within the first 4 to 5 months. I would absolutely recommend it to our manufacturing peers.

Avery CCL reduced planning time by 75%

“Our planner used to spend eight hours on routine planning tasks. Now it’s two hours on planning and the rest on more strategic activities.”

Raining Rose saw a 20% increase in units produced per hour

“Workers can look up and see their team’s race cart icon chugging along, and they know if they are winning. It’s exciting to see how confident they have become”

“Adding QAD EQMS to our organization, in this very exacting industry, has improved many areas of Saft.”

“Acceptance of EAM has gone very well. It captures exactly what we were looking for.”

A two week reduction of downtime and unsolicited positive user feedback are just some of the ways a flexible packaging manufacturer benefited from EAM.

This engineered materials company realized cost benefits with real-time production data

“By having the operator directly enter the data we have improved data quality and the data is available as production happens. We’ve eliminated overtime and now have that cost savings as a result”
