Basic metal industry Print E-mail

For example, the basic metal industry manufactures and refines steel and copper products, zinc and nickel, and castings. Future challenges include specialisation, increasing refining value, efficiently utilising the latest technologies and moving up the refinement chain. Syncron Tech offers basic metal industry systems for developing production control and flexibility.

Basic metal industry

This sector is characterised by process and batch production; plants are typically large, while production processes are unique and complex to control. For example, in the steel industry, the foundry and rolling mill place very different requirements on manufacturing control. Precise and item-specific tracking of materials throughout production is a core process management factor, as is the efficient delivery of orders.

Syncron Tech has strong know-how in this area and references for demanding implementations. With the help of our solutions, department-specific automation or system islands can be combined into a unified manufacturing control system covering different production lines. High availability and ease of use are typical of our implementations.

Our know-how and practical expertise can be applied to process modelling and the implementation of optimisation methods during production planning and optimisation. This results, for example, in optimisation models improving the production process’ yield through control of a casting machine or splitting the end product into customer-specific dimensions.

Our solutions are based on the SyncMES® product, and SyncPlanner™ in production planning and optimisation solutions.
