In-depth Use Case / Real-world Example

A company manufacturing automotive parts tracks Production Downtime by recording the number of hours the production line is idle. For example, if the line is down for 10 hours due to a machine failure, that’s 10 hours of downtime. Minimizing downtime is critical to improving productivity and meeting production targets.
