Nolato Gota in Götene specializes in injection molding of advanced plastic components and systems, primarily for the automotive industry. The company offers high-tech solutions in injection molding, robotic application of seals, welding, and assembly. Nolato Gota is part of the Nolato Group.
The problem
High customer demands required greater efficiency, better quality, and less gut feeling
Nolato Gota manufactures plastic components mainly for the automotive industry and has shown strong growth in recent years. Customers place high demands on all deliveries arriving as expected and have minimal tolerance for errors. Therefore, Nolato Gota must constantly maintain a high level of both efficiency and quality.
Previously, the factory had to work in a more inspection-driven way to meet customer demands. This meant that increased volume could only be handled with more people, both in production and in inspection work. That way of working did not create sustainable profitability for running and developing the factory in a globally competitive industry.
To produce with high OEE, both operators with the right skills and well-maintained machines are required. The factory and production management clearly saw the value of an experienced organization. At the same time, they needed to leave gut feeling behind and get the right tools to focus systematically every day on the improvements that deliver the greatest value.
Production manager Jimmy Johansson shows how visualized facts in the Good Solutions platform help Nolato Gota improve its efficiency by making better fact-based decisions every day.
The Good Solutions platform gives operators the information they need to make better fact-based decisions.
The solution
Real-time data gave Nolato Gota control over flows, losses, and improvements
”By being able in real time to see how our production flows are going, and where we have the greatest opportunity to improve efficiency, we can continuously work to reduce our production losses, increase flexibility and thereby become more competitive,” says Jimmy Johansson, production manager at Nolato Gota.
Good Solutions platform automatically shows cycle times and stops. This makes it easy for operators and production staff to quickly state the reason why a machine is not running optimally. Together with data from machines and other production systems, the platform creates visual decision support that the teams use in their day-to-day work to systematically eliminate bottlenecks and production losses.
With the mobile app, production management can quickly get an overview of the current situation, no matter where they are.
Through training and continuous skills development with Good Solutions, Nolato Gota ensures that operators use the system effectively and that the platform supports the factory's work processes. Employees are empowered to address identified problems, and teams follow up on the outcomes of their actions. By working data-driven, Nolato Gota can solve problems immediately before they become problems for the customer.
The result
35% higher OEE leads to better profitability, sustainability, and competitiveness
With the help of Good Solutions platform, continuous skills development and close collaboration with the factory and production management, Nolato Gota has improved the factory’s OEE by up to 35%.
This has made Nolato Gota more resource-efficient, more profitable and, above all, more sustainable. The challenges in 2020 also clearly showed the value of high efficiency and the ability to quickly adapt and be flexible. Especially in challenging times, the results of a data-driven approach have helped Nolato Gota strengthen its competitiveness.
Nolato Gota is now continuing to work to increase OEE even further and is expanding its collaboration with Good Solutions.
