Resumo

This article describes and analyzes the system that was implemented to digitally transform the entire division of a global iron and steel pipe producer, integrating 8 different facilities across the United States. One of the most important challenges was the implementation of a standard system capable of integrating all the different processes under a single solution deployed in all facilities to track the product with production and quality information, in addition to downtime process data, resulting in increased productivity and generating new business opportunities. The solution works integrated to the Microsoft Dynamics ERP configured in the Cloud. As part of the scope the solution contemplates the acquisition of data in real time from the CLP's to transform this information in data for track production and products throughout the process, the labeling and identification of products, as well as the improvement of performance by reducing delays and optimizing the production and quality process by integrating new technological tools for the operators in the plant and a new reporting tool for the company's managers. The system has been fully integrated using different hardware devices such as Tablet, Scanner, PC, Printers and RFID tools.
