One of the most effective ways for Ethanol manufacturers to keep costs low is to closely monitor and tightly control overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). Being able to track equipment uptime, downtime, and event sequences when milling corn or grinding sugar, for example, is critical to preventing unwanted shutdowns. The software is ideal for managers who want detailed, real-time reporting to decrease plant downtime and increase production throughput without adding equipment, people or materials.

Expert Quality Management allows you to compare cycle times, production parameters and variables across batches to improve the consistency and quality of your Ethanol. Define the product specifications that are required for quality production. Then, by integrating lab results and production parameters, you can capture and analyze the reasons for out-of-spec conditions. This information context allows you to increase your quality, yield, and profitability.

Access to accurate, timely production data is no longer optional; it’s essential … because every day, production personnel and business leaders across multiple Ethanol plant locations need to make many informed decisions in real time. They need actionable information to shape those real-time decisions and historical information from across the organizations to ensure that they can continually improve production.
