About The Customer
Leggett & Platt Inc. is the industry-leading manufacturer that conceives, designs, and produces a broad variety of engineered components and products for customers worldwide. Although Leggett & Platt may not be a household name, a household would not be the same without the products they produce. Whether a customer is relaxing in a recliner that has a Leggett & Platt motion mechanism powering it or barbequing on a grill made of Leggett cast aluminum, Leggett & Platt products are all around us, making the products consumers use every day more comfortable, durable, and life-enhancing.
The Challenge
Leggett & Platt needed to decrease the amount of time spent on measuring items in production. Additionally, they needed to eliminate lapses in reporting and transform their data collection process into a completely paperless system. Their objective was to standardize on a single analytics solution to become more efficient, improving quality during production and preventing defects.
The Solution
Leggett & Platt conducted a comparative analysis of InfinityQS® and another Statistical Process Control (SPC) software provider. InfinityQS’s open platform allowed for a smooth integration with Leggett & Platt’s established machinery. In addition, the real-time data analysis drastically transformed the company’s monthly finalization process. The process previously required two days to complete. Now, staff can access the data instantly. InfinityQS’s SPC software also enables the company to monitor, control, and improve the processes of its manufacturing operations in real time. Employees now take advantage of specification checks in real time, automatic recording and emailing of unusual events, and automated web publishing for internal and external customer needs.

Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.

Revolutionizing Rodent Control
From pet- and child-safe traps, to touch-free and live-catch rodent control solutions, Victor continues to stay committed to producing superior products that meet the varying needs of today’s pest control professionals. And, with a long standing history supporting customers in the food processing, service, and retail settings, Victor knew that strict regulations were costing organizations thousands of dollars in excess overhead trying to manage their rodent-control solutions. Trap inspections in these environments are often difficult and time consuming, requiring personnel to manually check a trap’s status multiple times per day, amounting to over six hours of manual labor. Victor is looking for an innovative way to increase operational efficiencies with the use of technology.
