Jul 22, 2008
Together with their Russian partner, Malahit, PSI has been charged by the ChTPZ Group with the supply of a warehouse and transport management system (WTM) for the Chelyabinsk large-tube plant as well as an advanced line sequencing (ALS) and production execution system (PES) for the coating line within the tube welding complex in Chelyabinsk.
Both solutions are based on PSImetals, which has already been implemented in the course of two projects for the ChTPZ Group plants in Chelyabinsk and Pervouralsk. The objectives of the WTM implementation are the optimal utilization of the automatic transport devices and the warehouse of the large-tube plant as well as the optimization of the entire logistics process. With PES, the direct exchange of information between the plant control and the enterprise software will be guaranteed.
The commencement of operations for the systems is planned for the second half of 2009.
