Hertzler Systems (www.hertzler.com) provides seamless, accurate data acquisition solutions that drive business transformation. The company provides the leading real-time data acquisition and analytics software, the GainSeeker Suite. This powerful and flexible system is best used by lean and progressive companies. Gainseeker Suite allows companies to connect with devices and other information systems, collecting data and alarming key personnel when problems arise; this technology allows organizations to analyze data for root cause problems, converting data into knowledge.
According to Evan J. Miller, chief executive officer of Hertzler Systems, specialists in lean and Lean Six Sigma, “We are delighted that our client Consolidate Biscuit Corporation is profiled in the current issue of Quality Assurance Magazine. As editor Lisa Lupo reported, CBC began its move to statistical process controls with a traditional paper system, but it is gradually implementing and expanding electronic applications through the Hertzler System, which provides real-time data acquisition, analysis, charting and reporting of quality data, and helps the bakery employees more quickly detect process variation and quality issues.”
The system has greatly enhanced the bakery’s process, said Process Improvement Team Coordinator Dan Wells. “With a touch of a button, I can see everything.” To set thresholds for the system, CBC determines the upper and lower levels for each particular measurement, and then tracks according to variation within these limits.
“In this day and age if you want to compete, your technology has to be up to date,” Jones added, and with the number of product changes that can occur in a single day on a single line at CBC, quick detection and correction is critical, he said, explaining, “Yesterday we had eight changes on one line.”
