Continuous trends – Big data, Internet of things and software
Video interview by Tire Technology Expo 2022
Veli-Matti Hakala, Director, Tire industry Sales, Cimcorp Group
No one knows what the next big thing in the tire industry will be, which is why it’s so important to build agile and flexible solutions that can adapt to new trends.
But regardless of the uncertainty of future trends, software will continue to be a key part of the best automation solutions, as it allows for more streamlined and efficient manufacturing processes.
And you shouldn’t discount the importance of factors like space-efficient layout design, which plays a big part in lowering costs.

Benefits provided with Cimcorp’s tire plant solution
#1 Modularity
Straightforward and built step-by-step, so you can add new lines to increase plant capacity
#2 Space-efficiency
Our space-efficient layout uses up to 50% less space, which means significant savings in building and land costs.
#3 Control
Our optimized solution takes care of the complete intralogistics, while the interface covers PLCs, robot controllers and the host system.
#4 Reliability
We minimize maintenance interruptions by using fewer electro-mechanical components.
#5 Redundancy
If part of the production line isn’t working, production finds different routes instead of stopping.
#6 Productivity
Our solution is faster to install and simple to operate, which delivers high productivity right from the beginning.
#7 Sustainability
From a longer lifecycle to reduced energy consumption, we’ve taken eco-friendliness into account.
#8 Tailored

-
We think highly of Cimcorp’s software, which integrates the machines into one entity and keeps the flow of material and data under complete control.
-
After I had seen the efficiency increase in Qingdao, I immediately decided to use Cimcorp equipment in Thailand.
-
As Cimcorp is considered a pioneer in the area of intralogistics automation, it was natural to want to have them as our partner.
-
Our key principles are: do it right first time, do it as quickly as possible and do it as cost-effectively as possible.
-
With this being a greenfield site, we had the opportunity to design the most efficient factory from scratch. This is why we have chosen robotic automation from Cimcorp; we wanted the best logistics technology currently available for our new plant.
