In the competitive world of plastics manufacturing, even small downtime events can disrupt production runs and delivery commitments. For this manufacturer of packaging and molded plastic parts, data fragmentation was the silent killer – Excel logs in one place, machine reports in another, and maintenance history spread across folders, printouts, and emails. With Dovient Copilot, the company gained a unified view of all maintenance activity, equipment health, and production risk, enabling smarter, faster decisions across both sites.
The business operated continuous extrusion and injection molding lines, supplying automotive and consumer packaging clients. While machines were equipped with sensors and PLCs, there was no centralized system for aggregating or analyzing maintenance activity. Decisions were often made reactively: maintenance managers relied on memory or scattered reports to prioritize work. This led to repeat breakdowns, missed maintenance windows, and high emergency maintenance costs.
Still relying on scattered spreadsheets and siloed reports to make maintenance decisions?
