PSI receives major follow-up order from ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe
Additional logistics system provided for Duisburg-South location
PSI was commissioned by ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe to provide a warehouse
management and crane coordinate system for its Heavy Plate Unit in
Duisburg-South. Based on the latest system version, the new warehouse
management system extends the functionality of the existing PSImetals
solution to include additional areas of production. The project is expected
to run for just over a year.
After successfully implementing the system for finishing and shipment, a
warehouse management system will ensure the utmost transparency in material
tracking and control in the biggest area of production with quenching and
tempering lines, shearing and slitting lines and ultrasonic testing. The
optimum use of existing resources (transport devices, equipment, warehouse
space) will further increase delivery performance. The long-term goal of
ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe is to use a standardised warehouse management
system to monitor and control logistics in all 11 production halls of its
Heavy Plate Unit in Duisburg-South. The final stage of planning also
includes integrating the production area for hot-rolled sheets as well as
processing, coating and shipping these plates.
On the basis of its own software products, PSI AG develops and integrates
complete solutions for energy management (electricity, gas, oil, heat),
production management (metals, automotive, mechanical engineering, mining,
logistics) and infrastructure management for transport and safety. PSI was
founded in 1969 and employs more than 1,500 persons worldwide. www.psi.de
