Connection to the ERP system/MES system will leverage smart production.

application products,” said Eric Perry, Superior Essex VP – engineering services and quality. “These technological solutions reflect Superior Essex’s firm belief that the products which interconnect the world must also respect it.” Tim Hermes, publisher of Environmental Leader’s parent company, Business Sector Media, commented: “With a highly respected judging panel and a strict set of judging criteria, entrants faced an extremely high bar for the level of product or project to qualify for an award.” Rosendahl has developed a low-scrap solution for color-changing processes with stripes, skin and layer, especially geared to automotive wire producers. Using only a small volume of melt during color changes results in the shortest scrap length. All bypasses are integrated in Rosendahl’s Rocomat system, with no need for separate units to assemble and disassemble. Roex extrusion technology, with either the Rocomat or the new RX5 crosshead, combined with the Rio line control system makes manufacturing smart, trackable and low in scrap. Small batch manufacturing

The systemcontains hardware and software components that allow the shortest production lengths and smallest batch sizes.

A color-detecting systemcan be integrated into the line.
