Client Profile
A globally recognized leader in Metal Injection Moulding (MIM) and precision manufacturing solutions, known for delivering high-performance components across industries such as automotive, medical devices, electronics, and defense.
Problem Statement
The client faced several operational inefficiencies due to:
- Limited data capture and analysis capabilities on the shopfloor
- Absence of alerts for critical process parameters, impacting quality assurance
- Unrecorded downtimes leading to hidden productivity losses
- Inability to track energy consumption trends across equipment and processes
These gaps hindered productivity, masked operational losses, and limited the client’s ability to drive continuous improvement.
