挑战
MMG Limited, a global mining company, was seeking to implement a standardised Asset Utilisation solution across all its operational sites. The solution needed to be flexible enough to adapt to the local operating conditions of each mine, while also providing a standardised asset utilisation data that they could analyse in real-time. The company wanted to have the capability to drill-down to the root-cause of any equipment asset that was exhibiting less than perfect utilisation, in order to drive continuous improvement through the business. The new system and processes had to be readily accepted by users everywhere, and this had to be achieved in a single sign-on environment compatible with existing systems.
关于客户
MMG Limited (MMG) is a global mining company with a vision to become the world’s most respected diversified base metals company. MMG operates and develops copper, zinc and other base metals projects across Australia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Laos and Peru. It also has significant exploration projects and partnerships across Australia, Africa and the Americas. One of the core business drivers for MMG is to generate value through transformation. This strategic intent drives business efficiencies, and led MMG to implement an asset utilisation program.
解决方案
MMG selected Ampla Operations Management software as a solution to deliver near real-time visibility into global production plus the ability to drilldown to root-cause analysis of ‘less than perfect’ utilisation events. The software captures relevant data to provide easy to understand real time intelligence for analyses. The solution delivered by AVEVA included everything from software, licensing and support, through to business consulting, solution design, implementation services, documentation and user training. The asset utilisation solution implemented at MMG has taken the old OEE lag indicator to a real-time lead indicator. All required data is captured from existing instrumentation and control system, and calculated and presented as easy understandable information to operators.

Continuous Casting Machines in a Steel Factory
With a very broad range of applications, steel is an important material and has been developed into the most extensive alloy in the engineering world. Since delivering high quality is absolutely crucial for steel plants, ensuring maximum productivity and the best quality production are the keys to competitiveness in the steel industry. Additionally, working conditions in steel factories are not suitable for workers to stay in for long periods of time, so manufactures usually adopt various machines to complete the steel production processes. However, the precision of these machines is often overestimated and the lack of flexibility also makes supervisors unable to adjust operating procedures. A renowned steel factory in Asia planned to improve its Distributed Control System (DCS) of furnaces as well as addressing the problem of insufficient accuracy. However, most well-known international equipment suppliers can not provide a satisfactory solution and local maintenance because the project needed new technologies to more accurately control equipment operations. By implementing Advantech’s automated monitoring and control solution, steel factories can not only improve the manufacturing processes but can also allow users to add additional functions to the existing system so as to make sure the operation runs at high efficiency.
