WITH KFACTORY®
TECHNOLOGY,
ROMBAT CAN
NOW MONITOR
THE CAUSES
OF DECREASED
OPERATIONAL
EFFICIENCY
ROMBAT can now track the causes
of decreased operating efficiency
thanks to KFactory® technology.
What does this mean? Employees at
ROMBAT can determine the caus-
es and the frequency of unplanned
shutdowns if they see that there are
too many of them.
„The data we now get is accurate
real-time data, allowing us to eval-
uate various operators in real-time
and, after implementing the second
line, to assess their productivity in
real-time. We can decrease some
factors that have an influence on
our operational effectiveness, we
can spot factors that have a neg-
ative effect, we can cut downtime,
and we can boost operational
effectiveness.”

technology.
How did things work in the past?
“We kept an eye on these metrics
and had KPIs in this area, but the
data was manually entered into
the ERP system. As a result, the
system gave us access to this
information, however it wasn’t
recent. Additionally, there was
data that implied some degree
of flexibility “Alin Ioaneş adds.
When data is gathered by the
human component, this flexibility
is a given.
Alin Ioaneș adds, “We can go to
the source of the problem and
prove it when we find that there is
a high frequency of a cause.
As a result, the line moves more
quickly, boosting output and
income as well. If breaks occur
at irregular intervals and the line
cadence is at the intended level,
ROMBAT can also track breaks
extremely well. When compared
to how it was previously col-
lected—either manually or via
the use of other systems—the

How the KFactory system was
implemented
Alin Ioaneș mentions that it’s
critical for the business to
respond quickly to whatever
occurs owing to or because of the
complexity of the sector in which
it works.
“Real-time information regarding
our production facilities is crucial
for this reason. We evaluated
some of the market-current
solutions and decided to work
together, first on a trial program,
and then we expanded it with
our colleagues from KFactory®
“Ioaneș reveals.
The initial application happened
on a battery manufacturing line
for significant automakers where
ROMBAT is a recognized suppli-
er. The business can now make
choices quickly and has access to
intervention may now be made
quickly. Additionally, compari-
sons across several production
lines can be done to optimize
production in general.
Additionally, if staff members are
aware that monitoring delivers
correct data, technology can en-
courage greater accountability.
He says that KFactory®’s in-
terface is user-friendly, which
is crucial so that you don’t get
bogged down in the finer points.
“With no considerable time
commitment or expensive capital
needed, it is quite simple to exe-
cute. We don’t have to work very
hard to offer a remarkable infra-
structure, “Alin Ioaneş remarks.
“We currently have infrastructure
that can link to this system for
our production lines. Working
with people from KFactory® and
interacting with them is quite
simple” the Rombat representa-
tive says.
