Optimizing workflow in bulk production settings

I’ve been focusing on enhancing efficiency in our bulk processing line, particularly in streamlining the ingredient mixing stages. Implementing an automated system helped reduce our cycle time by about 20%, which really improved overall throughput. I’m curious — has anyone else had success with specific tools or methods that might help optimize processes like this?
