Process automation for rolling and processing of aluminum
Our next generation X-Pact® electrical and automation system for aluminum rolling mills is especially dedicated to the process requirements of aluminum production. Adapted to the challenges of the future, it provides our customers with direct benefits such as operator guidance, ease of maintenance, stability, ergonomic design and efficient trouble shooting, all of which result in the minimization of production losses.
The intelligent linking of our basic and process automation technologies and the adaptation of the newly developed integrated technological solutions to the aluminum rolling process have contributed to a significant functional expansion of our next generation X-Pact® solutions on the way to X-Pact® Lights-out.
