A monitoring system for a packaging system comprising a plurality of machine units is disclosed. The monitoring system comprising an output sensor for measuring packages output from said packaging system, a number of pairs of machine unit sensors, each pair of sensors comprising an input sensor and an output sensor, wherein said number of pairs of machine unit sensors is arranged at a number of machine units, respectively, a processing apparatus configured to receive information from the sensors, and a communications network configured to send information from the sensors to the processing apparatus. Based on the information from the number of pairs of machine unit sensors a number of wasted packages may be determined, which in turn imply that a reliable efficiency measure may be determined. |
