What it does
Submit a production run report (quantities, downtime, rejects, trim). The Waste & Yield Analyser identifies each waste category, quantifies it in $ using live PackIndex material prices, ranks fixes by annual recovery potential, and flags quick wins achievable without capital spend.
Example use case
A production manager submits a corrugated run report showing 78,200 units from 80,000 attempted. The analyser identifies trim waste (4.2%), setup waste (320 sheets), and two downtime events totalling 90 minutes. It ranks trim optimisation as the highest $ opportunity and suggests a specific tooling adjustment.
Frequently asked questions
What data do I need?
Planned vs actual run quantity, downtime events and duration, trim specifications, reject reasons and counts.
Does it work for flexible film lines?
Yes — the agent works for corrugated, flexibles, rigid, and label converting lines.
What is a quick win?
A fix achievable within 2 weeks with no capital spend — typically a scheduling, settings, or procedure change.
