BM Group Polytec SpA works on latest smar t solutions for robotic systems

BM Group Polytec SpA, which spe- cialises in the manufacturing of robotic systems for the steel industry, is work- ing on smart solutions and combining industrial automation, mechatronics and AI to upgrade and digitise industrial processes. As the steel industry requires a new approach to the production process, companies are working on their efficiency, operators’ safety and quality to be competitive in a global market. “Thanks to the knowhow of our sister company BM Automation, Polytec is today world leader in robotic solutions for the steel industry. We supply robotic cells that increase productivity, reduce downtime and guarantee operator safety,” the company said. “We believe in ongoing improvement and innovation: our strength is research and technological development.” Polytec supplies customised auto- mation platforms and smart solutions based on most advanced technologies,

for couplings handling, marking robots (coupling, tube), tagging robots, ro- botised cell for automatic bundling of conduits, tube bending robotised cell, customised robotic applications and special mechatronics. Moving towards 4.0, steel tube and pipe producers can improve their plant availability and are able to certificate product’s quality.

in order to upgrade steel plants, these include: process automation, MV/LV electrical power distribution systems, customised software development for process control and motion control, customised software for HMI, produc- tion tracking systems, plant’s upgrade and digitisation, project management support, scrap yard mapping and crane management technological packages, slag detection systems, smart analysis and laboratory, sampling and measure- ment robots, smart robot for CCM oper- ations, robotic cell for the application of tube lubrification, robots for couplings pre-screwing, screwing, robotised cell
