Rodabell: Sustainability is one of our focus areas in our corporate strategy. We are working on three specific topics:
AL Circle: Which Industry 4.0 trends—like digitalisation, automation, or smart maintenance—does RODABELL embrace to stay ahead in the evolving industry landscape?
Rodabell: Automation is key in our industry. It is essential in order to have a homogeneous process, especially in aluminium casting operations, where the parameters to be met should be accurate, as you may encounter several issues, on performance and most importantly, safety. We are also focusing on automation to reduce the exposure of our customers to the lack of manpower, which is becoming a problem in many countries.
At Rodabell, we are including several layers of automation. The top layer includes a remote access module that allows our technical team to be connected to the system when the customers need assistance. Our system includes data collection hardware to reproduce trends that continuously provide relevant information of the system status. This information informs us before failures happen and gives us the ability to act on the machine in a preventive mode. This will considerably reduce the downtimes.
