The use of smart technologies and data analytics has become increasingly prevalent in the management of industrial plants. One of the key players in this space is LOESCHE a leading provider of vertical roller mills and associated equipment for the cement, power, and minerals industries. LOESCHE’s KingsBlue plant management platform is a powerful tool that is helping to transform the way that industrial plants are managed and optimised.
Imagine the scene. There is a machine breakdown on your production line. A worn part needs to be replaced urgently. All you have to do is find the correct technical documentation, identify the part and its part number, and send a request for quotation to your OEM. How long does that take? With Kingsblue PMP it takes a couple of minutes over a cup of coffee to identify parts and request a quote from the OEM.
Part of the LOESCHE Digital 4.0 software package, Kingsblue PMP’s document management software allows you to gain valuable hours of plant availability during unplanned downtime by drastically reducing your search time. No more logging in to different OEM’s catalogues. No more looking for technical drawings everywhere. Gone are the days of desperately trying to match drawings to BOMs. Your technical documentation will be neatly organised in one intuitive interface – accessible anytime, and from anywhere. The software can be installed as a standalone solution on any plant, integrating with existing plant infrastructure to deliver a fully digitalised operation.
The KingsBlue platform provides plant managers with real-time data and insights into the performance of their equipment and processes. It allows you to navigate your machines’ technical documentation, and identify and source spare parts − all in one intuitive and OEM-independent interface, accessible from anywhere, at any time. This may sound like a premium add-on package that gets more expensive the more people use it. Not with LOESCHE. This platform allows you to register as many users as you need at no extra cost. In addition, it is a non vendor-specific solution that is totally customisable for each customer’s specific needs.
