    Georgia-Pacific predicts converting line failure and optimizes production with AWS

    Georgia-Pacific · Predictive maintenance · AWS

    Georgia-Pacific, owned by Koch Industries, produces paper and tissue parent rolls at manufacturing facilities across North America. The company needed to reduce tears and breaks in converting lines, cut unplanned downtime, and predict equipment failure 60–90 days in advance. To address the challenge, Georgia-Pacific built an AWS-based advanced analytics solution centered on Amazon S3, Amazon EMR, and Amazon SageMaker. Real-time machine data was streamed into a central S3 data lake, transformed with EMR, and used to train ML models that recommend optimum machine speeds and detect risk of failure. The solution also helped Georgia-Pacific consolidate disparate production data and expert knowledge into a centralized analytics approach that more experienced operators and central support teams could use to improve production decisions.
