Data Strategy
  • Advanced Manufacturing
Data management and administration have emerged as one of the most valuable resources for businesses today. The ability to gain competitive advantages in the market largely depends on how these data are managed and transformed into useful information. Without a doubt, data has become the cornerstone of the modern economy.

Digital Factory: digitization of the supply chains
  • Advanced Manufacturing
In this Industry 4.0 era, the new integral production strategies adopted thanks to the implementation of artificial intelligence and machine learning cloud solutions; at the plant, in terms of the sensorization of machines and processes and the Internet of Things (IoT); and in products, in terms of 3D modeling and simulation systems (Digital Twins, Augmented and Virtual Reality) allow total management of the product life cycle in the digital supply chain.

Smart Nesting, when the tool and the engineer go hand in hand
  • Nesting
Material waste and a lack of agility in nesting or the nesting of parts are two of the most common problems faced by metal processing companies which slow down the company’s response time for its clients and make the process more expensive. This is due to them not using the appropriate technology in order to fully exploit each piece of sheet metal during the cutting process and/or the fact that this process is completed manually or using slower solutions. Equally, the work of the production engineer mustn’t be knocked as they are experts in the optimization of nesting and machining; the maximization of the margin for each production order received depends on their intervention.
