OEE systems: find out the real performance of your plant

  • Advanced Manufacturing
In the industrial sector, being aware of your plant’s profitability is key factor in remaining competitive. This is even more important in the new digital ecosystem, where remote working has been incorporated into our day-to-day life making it necessary to use artificial intelligence technology and sensors to be more efficient. To make this possible, having KPIs that measure production efficiency, and which enable corrective measures to be taken is absolutely vital.

Industrial automation or how to save time and money

  • Advanced Manufacturing
When we talk about automation we mean using technology to reduce the need for human intervention within a plant. The aim is to optimize the factory, making it more productive and, ultimately, more competitive in an environment where competition is growing and margins are becoming increasingly narrower.

‘Progressive Corners Beveling’: The algorithm that revolutionizes the way bevels are cut

  • Digital Transformation
One of the biggest obstacles that the metal industry faces is cutting bevels or chamfers on corners. After months working on how to overcome the loop that is generated, we’ve developed Progressive Corners Beveling (PCB), an algorithm based on dynamic control of the 5 axes, which means that the head is progressively oriented with the angle of the next bevel. That is, it no longer remains perpendicular to the cutting direction, as it does in tangential programming. Thanks to this we save 15 mm to 30 mm of material from each loop. As a result, there is no material waste, so we gain time and therefore, money.
