5 Critical KPIs That Meat Processors Should Monitor in Real Time - Part 1

Meat producers and transformers have everything to gain by monitoring their operations in real time.  During many key stages of the transformation process, it is possible to collect data that will give you a quick picture of the current situation.  Is your equipment operating at full capacity? What is your OEE? Could you optimize your yield? Are you systematically losing money because of overproduction? Are some products just not profitable? Are the right people working on the right production lines? 

So many questions, all of which can be answered thanks to real-time data collection and by monitoring your KPIs on an intuitive dashboard. To help you out, we've therefore prepared a series of 5 posts, each of which describes one of the five key measures you should be keeping an eye on:

KPI #1 - Downtime

The objective is to reduce start-up times, the time required to make product changes, set up time in the morning and the time required to solve any mechanical problems. By connecting packaging lines equipped with machines such as Multivac's Thermoforming packaging machine, it is possible to follow in real time the duration of downtime events, downtime frequency and the principal causes of your downtime. 

The slaughtering, deboning lines and cutting lines are also usual bottlenecks in meat transformation factories. By installing sensors that can identify downtime occurences and provide relevant information regarding same (some are even equipped with alarms to notify plant managers when a downtime event lasts longer than the established standards), your teams' reaction time will be improved.
