关于客户
Metafor 是一家拥有近 50 年行业经验的金属加工分包商。他们生产各种金属产品，每种产品都成为客户最终产品的独特且不可或缺的一部分。 Metafor 丰富的工程专业知识和产品知识使其成为寻求产品创新解决方案的客户的理想合作伙伴。该公司致力于持续改进和创新，其采用数字化工作指令就证明了这一点。
挑战
Metafor 是一家拥有多种产品的金属加工分包商，在为工厂车间的每种新产品配置机器人时面临着巨大的挑战。该过程非常耗时，并且需要操作员和焊接经理之间的广泛协调。使用纸质工作指令常常会导致误解或被完全忽视，从而导致生产过程中效率低下和潜在错误。
解决方案
Metafor 采用了 Proceedix，这是一种用于创建和部署工作指令的数字解决方案。经过半天的培训，团队能够创建他们的第一个数字工作指令。这些说明比纸质说明更全面，包括用于增强清晰度的图像。 Metafor 选择使用 7 英寸平板电脑来执行这些指令，因为操作员在遵循这些指令时不需要腾出双手。这种数字化转型简化了新产品的机器人配置流程，减少了以前所需的时间和协调。

Wireless Improves Efficiency in Compressed Air Systems
Hollingsworth and Vose wanted to improve the efficiency of their compressed air system, lower the electricity expense component of manufacturing cost in their commodity industry, and conserve energy leading to lowered greenhouse gas emissions. Compressed air systems degrade over time and become leaky and inefficient. Hollingsworth and Vose wanted to increase the frequency of system inspections without paying the high cost of manual labor.

Process Predictive Analysis in Pulp and Paper Mill
Common paper breaks consequently lead up to 60 minutes of downtime, delaying a potential $10K per hour of production value process. Thus, defective products cause financial and damage company's reputation. Improving quality and reducing defect rates can generate millions of dollars of revenue per year for your company.

Industrial Video Monitoring for Security and Regulatory Compliance
Because of the Stevenson mill’s proximity to the Tennessee River, WestRock was required by the USCG to comply with the Maritime Security 33CFR (MARSEC) regulations. WestRock needed a video security system but wanted to add other applications not required by the government, such as video process monitoring, condition monitoring, and wireless network management. WestRock needed a reliable video solution to avoid the compliance fines and possible security risks – but the solution needed to be implemented in the most cost-effective manner possible.

ECOsine Active Increased Reliability in the Paper Industry
The paper and pulp industry is interlinking intelligent hi-tech machines to highly efficient production lines. Higher power DC and AC motor drives perform the automation tasks. Every kind of interference that negatively affects the reliability and safety of the installation may lead to production downtime and consequently to significant financial losses. AC and DC motor drives are so-called non-linear loads as they draw a nonsinusoidal current from the grid. Resulting harmonics of current and voltage can interfere with the operation of nearby consumers and overload the electrical infrastructure. In this particular application, the load cycles of the drives often caused interruptions in the production process because of disturbances coupling into the fieldbus system.
