Carl Spaeter is using the solutions of Kaltenbach.Solutions GmbH at the Karlsruhe site to sustainably increase performance in preprocessing. A project team began in February to record the performance of machines on sawing, drilling and blasting lines using the digital measuring device “BoosterBOX”. Based on the precise measurements during operation, optimal decisions for more efficient preprocessing can be derived.
Together with Kaltenbach.Solutions, the company implemented the introduction of a uniform and fully digital equipment management system for 15 organizational units at 19 locations in Q4 of 2021. The next step will be to significantly improve performance in preprocessing with the help of Industrie 4.0 digital tools. Through stable further development of the performance of the sawing, drilling and blasting systems in pre-processing, the aim is to increase pre-processing volumes and shorten delivery times to customers at the Karlsruhe location. By consistently increasing the efficiency of all processes, Carl Spaeter is working to further consolidate its position as a market leader in steel trading in southwestern Germany.
