No matter where you want to start in your production - we know the levers with which we can get even more out of your line. So you will quickly see particular improvements or savings from our digital services.
Always keeping an eye on the specific benefit
Downtimes
Lack of raw materials
Unplanned machine downtimes
Planned downtimes last longer than expected
The actual cause is hard to find
Critical information is hard to detect and often noted too late
Downtimes
Always keeping an eye on the specific benefit
Waste
Poor production planning results in raw materials and already produced products being wasted
Waste of consumable material due to small batches
Frequent change-over causes wastage
Quality problems lead to already produced products being wasted
Waste
Always keeping an eye on the specific benefit
Maintenance planning
Planned downtimes are simultaneously used for regular maintenance tasks
Parts are replaced even though they are still fully functional
High storage costs through the provision of spare parts
Unplanned downtimes due to neglected maintenance work
Maintenance planning
Always keeping an eye on the specific benefit
Production parameters
Different products require different settings
Machines are operated at reduced speed to avoid downtimes
Manual optimisation requires qualified personnel and tests
Adjustments must be synchronised separately on all machines

Employee training and knowledge
Mistakes during machine operation
Fluctuation leads to a loss of know-how and high amount of training
Employees are not always at the right place to be able to react quickly to problems in the line
Operators must take care of multiple machines at the same time
Knowledge is widely scattered and not put into the right context
Employee training and knowledge
Always keeping an eye on the specific benefit
Retrofits
Many interventions on multiple machines by many operators
Manual activities are prone to error, lead to deviations and scarcely plannable change-over times
Individual machines are often not adjusted in line with one another which then leads to longer downtimes and more wastage
Making adjustments to the machine and changing handling parts require experience and training
The non-existence of universal guidelines lead to the incorrect prioritisation of tasks
Retrofits
Always keeping an eye on the specific benefit
Consumption
Sustainability requires a reduction in the consumption of processing and operating materials, e.g. air, energy, water
Rising prices for processing and operating materials lead to a drop in profitability
Raw material wastage must be counteracted
Unnecessary waste and reworking must be avoided
Machines are in operation even though they are currently not being used
Consumption
Always keeping an eye on the specific benefit
Material management
Poor material quality leads to problems with the machinery
Manual tasks such as sorting, emptying or refilling require human intervention and are prone to errors
Safety stocks create high storage costs
Complex production with small batch sizes is hard to handle

It's your choice: Digital Services from Krones - in the Cloud or on-premise
The advantages of the Cloud
Connected directly to the Krones Ecosystem: You will increase the performance of your line by using and learning from your collected production data.
Use licence instead of software purchase: Benefit from significant cost advantages, also as they can utilise the solutions across multiple lines and plants.
Using a subscription model: Receive regular automatic updates and upgrades with new features.
Advantages of on-premise
Profiting from experience: You are relying on a proven system which has been used on the market for many years and which contains a correspondingly large number of sophisticated functions.
Completely in your hands: You buy the software and install it in your own data processing centre. This way, not only is the data managed locally at your premises and by you, but the solutions can be used even without an Internet connection.
Individual configuration possible: Depending on the application, our software can be individually adjusted to your needs.
