Are you struggling to increase your manufacturing efficiency?

We can help you improve overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).

With Harford OEE, you will achieve your business objectives easily:
– increased output without further capital investment or additional labour
– reduced use of resources (material & time) to achieve the same output

Harford OEE provides real-time accurate data, OEE data analysis, and in-depth reporting with OEE improvement tools to your factory so that you can take instant action to improve manufacturing performance. The depth and breadth of Harford reporting are unrivalled. We can make them suit your exact needs for Overall Equipment Effectiveness reporting.

We don’t just collect data and turn it into useful information, we make it easy to use!

Do you have a lot of wastages in your production?

We can help you reduce rejects, reworks, product recalls, EPWs (Emergency Product Withdrawal), RTMs (Return to Manufacturer), scrap…

With Harford Quality Control and Quality Assurance, you will be able to get automatic corrective guidance and get notified of exceptions instantly. You can use quality control, quality assurance and error-proofing in the Harford system to minimise defects and sustain consistently high levels of quality.

Our aim is to help you get it Right First Time and Right Every Time! Therefore, we aim to empower your operators with scheduled quality assurance checks with instant verification and corrective action advice. Leaders are provided with exception notifications, a fully traceable audit trail, and real-time reports.

Are you still using paper recording and excel spreadsheets?

We can help you remove paperwork.

With Harford Paperless Factory, you will be able to remove all factory floor paperwork and the need for reviewing and validating paper-based control documents.

You will benefit from real-time visibility of quality performance and in-depth shop floor data capture. Harford Paperless Factory is probably the most comprehensive paperless factory solution, combining decades of experience with continuous improvement, heavily influenced by user input.

Are you giving away your valuable assets through overfill?

We can help you ensure that optimum control can be achieved.

With Harford Weight Control, you will be able to get simple and clear warnings and adjustment advice to minimise wastage and improve your process control.

We took and sustained a different approach to all our competitors, in that we combined the benefits of Average Quantity Control with Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Process Capability (Cp / Cpk), ensuring that optimum control can be achieved even where high levels of variation exist in the packing/bottling process.

Many sites using the Harford solution boast of overfill/giveaway levels as low as 0.1% (1ml per litre/1g per kg) – which they achieve by doing fewer process adjustments!

Are you suffering from the wrong labels on the wrong product?

We can help you to minimise coding and labelling errors.

With Harford Label Verification, you will be able to use automation to prevent non-conformances, minimise human errors, and reduce changeover time.

At the start of each production run, Harford configures in-line barcode scanners to check that the correct packaging materials and labels are used – on each individual product, case or pallet. This way, we can ensure 100% verification of packs, at the earliest opportunity, to avoid unnecessary wastage.
