Fast moving consumer goods

In the fast moving consumer goods industry, every second counts. Downtime in your production line has a direct impact on your output and delivery reliability.
Many issues are solved temporarily by replacing machine parts, while that’s exactly where opportunities lie to improve your process structurally. Go for:

  • Less unplanned downtime in high-speed production lines
  • More stable performance and a higher OEE
  • Up to 50% lower total costs through overhaul and optimization

Optimize your production line

Less downtime, more control

Optimisation of critical components for stable performance

In environments where production lines run continuously, people quickly opt for certainty. Parts are replaced preventively. Stock is built up and deviations are accepted as long as the line keeps running. In practice, this is often just treating the symptoms.

But wear and failures rarely occur without reason. They are usually the result of components that are functioning just not quite optimally within the process.

At Spikker Specials, we therefore take a different approach. We analyse how critical machine components behave under load and continuous use, and then optimise them so they better match real-world conditions.

The result: a more stable and predictable production process with less downtime and less dependence on stock.

Frequently asked questions:

OEM parts are designed to meet minimum requirements, not necessarily to perform optimally in your specific production process. In a high-speed production environment, OEM parts can lead to faster wear, downtime, maintenance and therefore higher costs.

For us, overhaul also means re-engineering. By analysing and modifying existing parts (for example material, tolerances or finish), they better match the application and conditions. This results in less wear and more stable performance. Re-engineering also means we guarantee equal performance after overhaul, but with savings of up to 50% compared to replacement.

Less unplanned downtime, a higher and more stable OEE, and lower total costs thanks to less replacement and less stock.

For manufacturing companies in the fast-moving consumer goods industry where continuity, speed and delivery reliability are crucial.

No. Optimisation starts with insight. Often the biggest gains are in a number of critical components that structurally impact your performance.
