Discover how an Italian SME in the packaging industry transformed its operations—shifting from a reactive to a proactive approach—thanks to the Zerynth platform for machine maintenance monitoring.

What was the issue: why was production slowing down?

A packaging machinery company in Italy was facing a critical challenge:

  • No real-time visibility on machine status
  • Difficulty identifying prolonged downtime
  • Reactive instead of preventive maintenance
  • Increasing waste of time and resources

Production monitoring was entirely manual. The result?
Slow decision-making, emergency fixes, and a negative impact on production optimization.

How does smart rule-based monitoring work?

To increase productivity and reduce downtime, the company adopted the Zerynth Copilot Platform for reliable and continuous equipment health monitoring.

What was implemented:

  • Automatic data collection from each machine
  • Custom rules to trigger alerts in case of anomalies
  • Integration with existing tools (e.g., email, internal chats)

A practical example:

One of the configured rules sends an automatic alert if a production line remains idle for more than 2 hours.
This allows the team to act immediately, minimizing idle time and delays.

What are the benefits of AI in manufacturing?

With rule-based and customized notifications, the company saw fast, measurable results:

Improvement KPI Value
Reduction in unplanned downtime -30%
Faster production team response +25%
Less emergency maintenance -40%
Reduced Waste -20%

These improvements translated into a full-scale production optimization, driven by a smarter and more responsive system.

How to implement smart alerts in 4 steps

  1. Connect machines: plug & play connectivity on each line
  2. Monitor data: collect insights on runtime, downtime, and setup phases
  3. Set smart rules: define thresholds and alerts based on your needs
  4. Receive real-time alerts: via email, chat, or directly on the platform

This process enables constant and seamless machine maintenance monitoring, suitable for any manufacturing environment.
