Model Predictive Control

Upgrading an aging control infrastructure can be expensive. It can be challenging to identify the cost saving opportunities that would justify this cost. Two solutions helped Kraft Heinz identify these cost-savings and modernize their control infrastructure to maximize their current and future production.

Using data analytics, the Rockwell Automation team found a solution that would identify process improvements and get the most out of production. For Kraft Heinz, the Pavillion8 MPC software increased their production capacity, set them up for long-term growth, and reduced product variability by assessing their current and predicted operational data, comparing it to set goals, and optimizing the process control from that.

What is Pavillion8 MPC software? Pavillion8 MPC is a modular software program and the foundation for industry-specific solutions which includes modules that can control, analyze, monitor, visualize, warehouse, and integrate.
