Stretching Goals with Yield Optimization in Baking

While many executives want to use this data for AI/Ml driven analyses that can help improve yield, the reality is that a third of data goes unused¹. Using data more effectively unlocks new paths to efficiency and savings like pinpointing loss to the machine level and maximizing yield from existing equipment.

OEE provides valuable insights into where inefficiencies might be hiding. However, its view is often centered on machinelevel issues, and doesn’t capture wider performance variations that can occur between shifts, production lines, product types, or facilities. To truly improve yield, bakeries need a broader, more integrated perspective.

From batch quality and packaging to DataOps, Rockwell Automation and our partners have a range of solutions for every facet of operations. We also enable autonomous production with solutions that provide closed-loop control and eliminate manual intervention.
