Solvei8 has successfully deployed its Maintaini8 solution at Metro Knitting & Dyeing Mills Ltd., a prominent composite knitwear manufacturer based in Bangladesh and part of the Panam Group. This innovative implementation has transformed the company’s maintenance processes by shifting from traditional manual methods to a comprehensive digital system. The solution facilitates real-time machine monitoring, alerts for preventive maintenance, and improved oversight of mechanic performance, leading to marked enhancements in operational efficiency.
Prior to adopting Maintaini8, Metro Knitting & Dyeing Mills Ltd. encountered multiple challenges, including poor machine tracking, inefficient preventive maintenance, and inadequate management of mechanic performance. The Maintaini8 solution has effectively tackled these issues by automating machine monitoring, offering real-time insights into downtime and repairs, and enhancing spare parts management. The factory now benefits from precise operations through real-time data collection and automated reporting.
“Maintaini8 has completely transformed our maintenance department by delivering real-time insights and proactive alerts that enable us to conduct preventive maintenance and ensure our machines operate at peak efficiency,” stated Biplob Kumar Mohajan, Senior General Manager of Operations at Metro Knitting & Dyeing Mills Ltd.
Adib Sajjad, Country Manager for Bangladesh at Solvei8, remarked, “This implementation exemplifies how digital solutions can significantly enhance factory operations. We take pride in collaborating with Metro Knitting & Dyeing Mills to help them achieve improved efficiency.”
The impact of the implementation on daily operations has been substantial. Mechanics, who were initially unfamiliar with digital tools, have quickly adapted and now utilize daily system-generated reports to monitor breakdowns, repair durations, and machine performance. This change has resulted in considerable time savings, more accurate machine data, and enhanced overall maintenance capabilities. As a result, Metro Knitting & Dyeing Mills Ltd. has experienced reduced machine downtime, improved spare parts management, and more effective monitoring of both machinery and mechanics.
