How to effectively design and implement a control system in a new factory – even in difficult market conditions?
Building a modern control system, including design, cabinet prefabrication, hardware supply, software development and commissioning, is a real challenge and passion for us. ‘Greenfield’ projects, on the one hand, provide an opportunity to implement best practices throughout the plant, and on the other hand, require a huge amount of engineering and high technical competence.
The use of modern technical solutions, combined with experienced engineering staff, makes it possible to achieve final success.
Challenges and solutions:
How would you control a process in which basic laws of physics, such as Ohm’s law, are not obeyed? This question opens up a discussion of controllability under difficult conditions. Thanks to close cooperation with the Investor, we have developed algorithms that enable effective process management even under such circumstances. As a result, we obtain products of the highest quality.
In every factory, you can find systems and equipment within the framework of so-called ‘package supplies’, which often have dedicated controls. For the Investor, it is crucial that there is as little variety of solutions as possible in the production plant, in order to simplify the work of maintenance departments and reduce costs associated with the storage of spare parts. Our goal from the beginning was to support the Investor in this regard. We conducted arrangements with suppliers to minimize the number of types and models of equipment supplied. In addition, we required appropriate communication solutions, such as network separation, connection to fiber optic rings and Profinet-based communication.
In the metallurgical industry, where specific working conditions prevail, it is a priority to guarantee maximum safety for production personnel. That’s why we designed and implemented an advanced safety system at the factory, which significantly improves comfort and safety at work.
To provide support for maintenance services, we have implemented an intuitive diagnostic system. This system continuously monitors the operation of the equipment and informs about possible irregularities. As a result, it is possible to react faster to problems and minimize downtime.
Developing and commissioning a control system for a newly established factory under conditions of limited component availability posed a major engineering challenge. Logistics and delivery difficulties could have significantly disrupted the project schedule, leading to additional complications.
Thanks to the tremendous commitment of our team, the Investor and suppliers, we successfully completed the project and put the production facility into operation on schedule.
The investor’s awareness that high-quality hardware and software are crucial for trouble-free operation in the long term made it possible to implement modern and reliable solutions in the control system. An advanced level of fault and failure diagnostics allows quick identification of problems and their effective resolution.
In addition, the system is designed to integrate with business-class super systems, enabling data exchange in an efficient and secure manner.
Thanks to the use of modern technological solutions and the experience of our engineering staff, we are able to implement the most demanding projects, ensuring their success at every stage – from conception to system launch.
