Remus – Sanski Most: Exhaust polishing machine

CHALLENGES / PROBLEMS

  • Outdated Siemens S5 hardware.
  • Machine reliability issues.
  • Failure of the Siemens S5 PLC with no possibility of repair or procuring spare parts.
  • The machine’s lack of flexibility, limited to a single product type.

SOLUTION

  • Production and delivery of a new energy/control cabinet.
  • Installation of a new Siemens PLC S7-1500, HMI, and Siemens G120 frequency regulators.
  • Development of new PLC software.

BENEFITS

  • Improved system reliability.
