Chemicals and paints manufacturers that run on Cogtive
Where the batch stalls
The bottleneck moves every week. Your view of it should not.
Tanks wait for quality or color approval, color and product changes take long cleanings, and capacity per line lives in a spreadsheet.
Long, unstandardized cleanings
Color and product changes with long cleanings that change with every crew.
A bottleneck that moves every week
Each week a different stage limits output, and the team reacts too late.
Capacity calculated on a spreadsheet
Nobody knows for sure how much each line can deliver with next month’s mix.
How Cogtive solves it
From reactor to filling, one cockpit.
Each pain maps to a pillar of the cockpit, on top of a complete OEE foundation.

CAPTA diagnostic
A short questionnaire with your team shows where the biggest loss is and what to connect first.
The cockpit live
Data from IoT, sensors or the tablet. OEE, stops and losses in real time as soon as the first line is connected.
Routine and evolution
Our Customer Success team of Operational Excellence professionals runs the routine with yours, then expands where it makes sense.

FAQ
Before you ask.
Does Cogtive work with batch processes and tanks?
Yes. Cogtive is built for batch and hybrid processes, following each order through tanks, quality release and filling, with the time it waits at each stage.
What is one point of OEE worth in our plant?
It depends on your volume and labor cost. Our OEE calculator estimates it in under a minute, and the CAPTA questionnaire shows where the biggest loss is.
Does Cogtive replace our MES or ERP?
No. Cogtive works alongside them. The MES records execution and the ERP plans; Cogtive manages flow, pace, setup and capacity on top of what actually happens on the shop floor.
Do we need to start with every line?
No. A short CAPTA questionnaire shows where your operation stands, and we start with what creates value now. We don’t sell what you won’t use yet.
