A special highlight of this unit is the integration of the APC system (advanced process control) of GAW. This application covers the complete raw material, chemicals and energy expenditure and files the information in a database. The consumption balance – referring to timeframe, production unit and tambour – is analysed and provided via processing algorithms. The data can also be retrieved in the interface-linked MES (manufacturing execution system) of the customer.
The shipment is scheduled for middle of 2016 and the start-up will take place end of 2016.
