Buhler is supporting Kagi in building its smart factory. By 2024, Kagi plans to have its entire machine park digitally networked and all process data visualized.
The first steps towards the smart factory started in 2019 when Kagi and Buhler teams conducted a Performance Assessment Workshop to discover where improvements could be made in the production process of the chocolate wafer manufacturer. Our vision is to produce the perfect Kagi every day, whether it is 30°C in summer or minus 10°C in winter,’ says Pascal Grin, Chief Operating Officer of Kagi Sohne AG.
After all factors relevant to the production were analyzed, the teams identified areas for improvement and defined plans to address them going forward. The quality of Kagi’s products has always been high, explains Grin, but the goal was to ensure a high level of quality without interruption and with fewer rejections.
