Expose frequent short losses
Capture short interruptions separately from longer downtime so they do not disappear into average performance.
PACKAGING MANUFACTURING
See where packaging-line time and output are being lost.
Packaging performance can be dominated by short stops, speed loss, changeovers and downstream interruptions. ClearRivet keeps those losses visible while the line is running.
WHAT MATTERS
Production visibility designed around the work.
ClearRivet is intended to give manufacturing teams a common view of machine status, production, downtime and OEE without turning every improvement project into a full MES deployment.
Compare actual pace with target
Make sustained speed loss visible rather than treating a running machine as automatically productive.
Review changeover impact
Keep product/order context with the production timeline so changeover performance can be reviewed.
PRACTICAL USE
What teams can use the data for.
See upstream/downstream patterns
Use machine and event context to investigate recurring starved or blocked conditions where signals are available.
Improve downtime context
Give operators a simple way to add the reason for significant stops.
Prioritise recurring causes
Use reason and duration totals to focus engineering and CI effort.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Questions manufacturers ask.
Can ClearRivet track micro-stops?
ClearRivet is designed to record short stops separately from operator-required downtime events when configured appropriately.
Does it need a modern packaging machine?
Not necessarily. Connection options depend on the equipment, available PLC data and suitable machine signals.
Can it show production by order or product?
ClearRivet is designed to keep production-order or product context alongside monitored production data.
