27th IFHTSE CONGRESS & EUROPEAN CONFERENCE ON HEAT TREATMENT 2022

Many companies being active in heat treatment are facing numerous inefficiencies like non reliable first level sensors and process instrumentation, diverse IT-systems, limited information exchange between sensors and plant units, lack of consistent and standardized data (management). Companies generate high direct and indirect costs through all business processes resulting uneconomic stock/WIP levels, non-essential high lead times and increasing pressure on product margins.
Today mainly talking and reading about hydrogen utilization / de-carbonization and digitalization in the industry supply chain, and very rear about first level sensors and their hydrogen capability and digitalization in the heat treatment.
