AGCO Improves Tractor Production Visibility and Efficiency with Apriso MES
Case study showing how AGCO deployed Apriso MES to double tractor assembly output, reduce takt time, and improve OEE by 22% at new Lean facilities.
AGCO implemented Apriso at two new factories in Germany to support high-volume tractor production. The system delivers real-time production data, finite scheduling, and material synchronization with SAP. Results include doubled line output to 16 units, takt time below 10 minutes, and 8% productivity gains in year one with 25-30% projected over three years.
Doubled tractor assembly to 16 units per line without efficiency loss
Reduced takt time below 10 minutes and improved OEE by 22%
Enabled one new product pilot per month with up to 60% new parts
Integrated real-time data capture with SAP for scheduling and quality
Supported Lean operations with minimal floor inventory and instant KPI visibility
