Metal

To progress and compliance with the latest technologies in the steel industry, we need to upgrade existing equipment and automation, go for new equipment, applying new technology in key processes and understanding and acting on real-time operational data in order to drive efficiency and quality in operations. Companies are also looking at vertical integration to improve visibility to manufacturing, streamline flow of data, and also link disparate data sources via data mining to find the best practices.

We provide customized solutions in all domains ranging from PLC, DCS, HMI/SCADA, Manufacturing Execution System, Energy Management and Modeling System, Overall Equipment Effectiveness, Enterprise Manufacturing Intelligence to Business Application Integration thus enabling the company to achieve overall operational excellence and maximize the true potential of real-time information while minimizing downtime.

We are looking to give you real-time operations to drive production efficiency, improve quality, reducing Downtime and implement best-practice standards. We're here to answer all your questions as below:

“How do I improve my existing equipment?”
“Do I need to upgrade my automation landscape?”
"How do I optimize energy consumption and decreasing the cost?”
"How do I go about implementing the project to ensure zero-downtime?”
"How do I connect my control automation data to ERP systems and data intelligence platforms?”

Lean renders solutions in the automation technology space from shop floor to the top floor against a backdrop of continuous improvement. Also, these solutions help to produce higher quality products with consistent metallurgical properties, while boosting yields and minimizing energy costs to reduce your cost-per-ton.
