ABB has launched Do More With Digital, a global campaign highlighting the opportunities for the process industries to realize their full potential through digital transformation.
ABB has worked with customers across the process industries for decades, supporting with the deployment of digital solutions such as advanced process control (APC), energy management systems (EMS), and manufacturing execution systems (MES).
Solutions such as ABB Ability™ Energy Management System and ABB Ability™ Smart Melt Shop allow plants to automatically forecast and optimize power demand at scale, allowing ABB customers to fully realize the potential allowed by digitalization. By integrating with production data, the system allowed the manufacturer to identify their most energy-intensive processes and correlate energy use with specific steel grades. This newfound understanding is expected to deliver significant energy savings, with ABB’s system contributing 1-1.5 percent towards the manufacturer’s ambitious 10 percent reduction target.
