A long-standing collaboration centered on innovation and sustainability gains momentum through the ambitious Lighthouse Plant âAcciaio_4.0â³. ORI Martin âthe main European integrated steel group for high-quality steel â and Tenova â a Techint Group company specialized in innovative solutions for the metals and mining industries â have their headquarters in Lombardy, one of the areas most affected by the COVID-19 health emergency worldwide. To face the crisis hitting the Italian and European manufacturing sector, the two companies have invested in digital technologies, finding in the digitalization process the strategy to adapt to the changing conditions.
âAcciaio_4.0â? entails an overall investment of â¬12M â â¬8M of which are partly (22%) funded by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development and the Lombardy Region within the Fund for Sustainable Growth. The goal is to transform ORI Martinâs steel plant in Brescia into a smart factory with the support of Tenova, the projectâs technological partner, thanks to the application of the enabling technologies of Industry 4.0.
