On March 17, Austria-based plantmaker Siemens VAI Metals Technologies announced that it has received an order from Poland's largest steelmaker CMC Zawiercie S.A. to equip a new bar mill with the Morgan XpertManager manufacturing execution system. CMC Zawiercie is a part of Commercial Metals Company, headquartered in Irving, Texas, US.
The new system will enable CMC Zawiercie to analyze operations, manage production and optimize the mill's throughput, coordinating its production with an existing bar mill and rod outlet. XpertManager receives execution orders from the SAP system and provides all necessary information for mill set-up, then tracks the product to ensure it moves correctly through the process.
CMC Zawiercie is specialized in production of billet, bars, rebar, wire rod and angles.
