Total Production Visibility for Ball Corporation

Acumence by Flexware Innovation is an enterprise industrial intelligence platform designed for high-speed, high-volume aluminum beverage can manufacturing that provides real-time production reporting. In this case study, learn how Ball Corporation uses Acumence to gain real-time data on downtime, production, and spoilage, ultimately improving efficiency by 3%.

SparkMES-200×59
spark-mes-custom

Custom MES Development & Deployment

In late 2019, Flexware Innovation collaborated with a Swedish-based worldwide leader in automotive technology to solve major pain points from an outdated Manufacturing Execution System (MES) within one of its subsidiaries, who delivers brake assembly solutions via 9 manufacturing sites. With SparkMES™, a scalable and fully customizable MES solution developed by Flexware and powered by Ignition, explore how this customer greatly improved overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).

“We’re always looking for bottlenecks and chokepoints in the production line. It can be especially hard to pinpoint some issues, especially if it’s something that only occurs once every 24 hours; it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack. Acumence turns every one of those needles into a big flashing light so we can see it right away and solve the problem as soon as it arises.”
