The Process Consultancy Services offered by Siemens VAI Metals Technologies help manufacturers of flat aluminum products to boost their productivity and yield and to improve product quality. The process consultancy services can be tailored to specific requirements, ranging from examining one single sub-system to analyzing complete factory operations. At a Chinese foil mill, it was possible to increase productivity by around 25 percent.
As a leading vendor of plant technology for the aluminum industry, Siemens VAI has references from all over the world, including compact aluminum, reversing warm rolling, tandem rolling, cold rolling and foil roll mills. Its industry-specific know-how encompasses process control and electrical engineering as well as fluid technology and mechanics.
Based on process-oriented consulting packages, Siemens VAI checks operational processes or workflow and production planning. Suggestions are then put forward for improving productivity or quality. In addition, an analysis of the factory and existing production facilities provides a decision-making basis for pending investments in modernization or expansion projects and yields information about options for extending the product portfolio.
Depending on the plant, the potential for improvements can be considerable. Thus, in a high-speed foil rolling mill in China, it was possible to boost productivity by up to 25% by reducing pre-stress levels in relation to the rolling speed.
The process consultancy services are provided by an interdisciplinary team of technical specialists for all kinds of systems, manufacturing facilities and production processes.
