Burton's Foods: When it comes to the crunch

How Idhammar’s OEE System helped Burton’s Foods to cut costs without cutting corners...

HIGH PRESSURE MANUFACTURING, demands precision operation and a teambased approach to continuous improvement - but Burton's Foods also recognises that reliable and accurate information is fundamental to success. Detailed OEE analysis allows production managers to identify exactly where losses are occurring and provides the tools to support the efforts and initiatives required to resolve issues - adding up to huge financial benefit and consequently a fast return on investment...

Burton’s Foods found that replacing its series of spreadsheets with Idhammar's dedicated OEE System and integrated Improvement Agenda meant that time previously wasted on manipulating data could be better spent improving the plant. The site is now able to accurately calculate, analyse, and report on availability, performance and quality metrics, and quantify the value of all improvement opportunities.

Using the core Idhammar OEE System together with OEE Data Acquisition and the Quality Monitor, Burton's Foods now has complete control of operational analysis and reporting.
