Join the connected industrial economy
The metals industry is rapidly adopting digital technologies to solve project and operational challenges and operate more sustainably.
These digital technologies scale to include your entire value chain, increasing visibility and providing insights to improve productivity across the enterprise. Digitally capture existing asset data, and use AI analytics in the cloud to improve asset performance and reduce the environmental impact of your operations.
“We believe that predictive maintenance is a key part of our strategy to evolve and become a more stable, more profitable organization.”
Árni Páll Einarsson, Reliability Implementation Manager, Alcoa
Build a digital twin strategy that adds real value across an asset’s lifecycle
- Apply “right-to-left thinking” to determine the strategic capital investments required to transform both project and operating performance using a digital twin.
- Bridge the gap between project and operating teams to ensure shared ownership.
- Invest in the creation of a digital twin from the very beginning of the project phase for more profitable returns throughout the asset lifecycle.
See how Wood’s digital twin strategy optimizes facility operations, increases safety and environmental performance of assets, and maximizes profitability.
Increase resiliency, reliability & sustainability across the metals value chain.
- Collect more sensor data to feed thermal models for better furnace control
- Enable faster response times by providing deeper insight & data sharing across departments
- Reduce waste and product rejection claims resulting in annual cost savings of US$250k.
See how Algoma Steel Mill have reduce their carbon footprint by 70% for savings of $700M.
Equip your workforce with the solutions it needs to collaborate and make informed decisions
- Attract and retain workers by offering them familiar digital work experiences.
- Improve your team’s situational awareness and institutional knowledge with experiential learning.
- Make it easier to collaborate with remote operations and a shared cloud experience.
See how Italpresse Gauss improved situational awareness and cross-device communications.
