In only 6 weeks we have gathered all the data, we had actually, onsite, looked into what do we want to measure in safety, quality, delivery, and efficiency. And that has helped us to increase value every day in our production.

Former Dalaträ CEO

Moelven

Our goal is to free up data from different silos and put it in one place where we have the ability to scale and implement the same solution in many different sites. And that’s where we saw Cognite Data Fusion as a really good platform, where we could get the data from different sources, connect it to each other, and create relationships. We saw a platform which was developed for the industry.

Moelven

We use Cognite Data Fusion every day from the sawline itself, to collect all the data in one place instead of having 5 to 6 different screens. It’s very time-efficient. Instead of looking through all the other systems and finding the right system for starters, we can just go through to the same screen every time, and from here we can find anything we want.
