Activplant's Throughput Analyzer (TPA)
All manufacturers seek greater operational efficiency, but until now, the way of achieving this goal has been complex and fraught with difficulties.  One of the leading-edge solutions we offer is the Throughput Analyzer from our ISV partner, Activplant.  It allows you to see through the typical plant-floor “data clutter,” in order to find what truly hinders you from producing more efficiently and reliably.  The Throughput Analyzer is as equally at home in an automotive facility where Takt Time rules the flow of product, as it is in high-speed production environments, where management is more concerned with the rate of flow like bottling and packaging.   Since its introduction, the Throughput Analyzer has enabled many Activplant customers to achieve substantial increases of 10% to 25% in their production throughput.  Click here or on the screen below to download a Throughput Analyzer datasheet.

TPA Balance Map
Each constraint operation in a contiguous line has a unique effect on throughput.  So, recognizing which is the most significant constraint is the key to improving results.  The adjacent Throughput Analyzer Balance Map clearly displays line and asset level metrics, and lets you drill down to focus your resources and continuous improvement efforts on the most significant constraints, in real-time, and historian views.
