挑战
BorgWarner Cooling Systems, a subsidiary of U.S. Automotive Supplier BorgWarner, aimed to optimize production at their German plant. The plant, which houses a total of 40 machines, was in need of a system that could systematically collect and process machine and operating data, visualize current process states online, and precisely analyze weak areas. The goal was to increase overall production efficiency. The challenge was to develop and implement an individual, custom-fit production management system that could meet these needs.
解决方案
FORCAM, an independent IT and consulting company, partnered with the BorgWarner team in Markdorf to develop and implement an individual, custom-fit production management system for the 40 machines in the plant. The system, FORCAM FORCE, systematically collects and processes machine and operating data. Current process states are visualized online and all weak areas, including technical, logistical, and organizational failures, are analyzed with precision. The system also integrates seamlessly with SAP ERP orders and operations to assist the operator at the shop floor level and increase productivity.

Case Study
Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).
