Metal industry

Metal processing for industrial applications and consumer goods

The metal industry involves metal processing to manufacture everyday products, semi-finished goods for the automotive, machinery, and transportation industries, as well as specialized, custom components. Key sectors of this industry include:

  • Steel production and metalworking: Forging, casting, and powder metallurgy.
  • Metal structures: Execution of structures for the construction industry.
  • Precision metal components: Production of pipes, radiators, and central heating boilers.
  • Sales of steel products and raw materials: Distribution of metal products and raw materials.

Challenges in the metal industry:

  • Material consumption optimization: Minimizing waste and efficient use of raw materials.
  • Cost control: Monitoring material, production, and labor costs.
  • Order fulfillment tracking: Especially important in make-to-order production.
  • Resource management: Planning and optimizing the use of machines, tools, and human resources.
  • Integration of production processes: Connection with MES systems and industrial automation.

To meet these challenges, we offer Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations – a comprehensive ERP system tailored to the specifics of the metal industry.

Key system features:

  • Accurate order fulfillment tracking: Especially in the case of make-to-order production.
  • Better visibility and accurate cost information: Enables precise cost monitoring and optimization.
  • Reduced metal consumption: Through integration with cutting optimization systems.
  • Flexible production planning: Takes into account the current situation on the shop floor.
  • Resource planning: Machines, tools, and human resources (e.g., certified welders).
  • Production process optimization: Possibility of integration with MES systems.
  • Sheet metal usage tracking from coils: Takes into account linear meters and weight.
  • Control over generated scrap: Monitoring and management of production waste.
  • Flexible production formulas: Definition of co-products and by-products.
  • Full material traceability: Tracking at the batch number level.
  • Streamlined logistics chain: Improved delivery and distribution efficiency.
  • Cost reduction: Through control and management of production and distribution costs.
  • Production reporting: Via terminals (including mobile) or interfaces with industrial automation.
  • Improved warehouse handling: Use of modern technologies, including barcode terminals.
  • Transport management: Optimization of logistics processes.
  • Flexible reporting: KPIs essential for continuous business improvement.
