CONNECT Lighthouse predictive analytics pilot
Amcor's predictive analytics pilot reduced downtime by a further 1-2%, according to AVEVA
Problem
Amcor collected substantial factory data, but inconsistent reporting limited its use. Downtime and process variation reduced production efficiency.
Approach
In 2024, Amcor joined AVEVA's CONNECT Lighthouse pilot. It combined event and process data from multiple plants in the cloud. AVEVA Advanced Analytics predicted equipment failures and quality anomalies, alongside analysis supported by generative AI.
Results
Takeaway
The predictive pilot followed work to standardize production data. Its reported downtime reduction was additional to gains from earlier monitoring improvements.
