M.BUY — SPARE PARTS, ALWAYS AT YOUR FINGERTIPS
Primetals Technologies' online spare-parts catalog, carefully compiled specifically for steel plants.
m.buy is Primetals Technologies’ web store, specifically designed to make it easier for customers to maintain their steel plants. Customers can browse through the m.buy component catalog based on the structure of their plant. The “Documents” tab in m.buy provides detailed information about items, for instance the blueprint for any part. Queries about specific products can be swiftly addressed by the experienced m.buy team, helping you to make the right choices and avoid delays and unnecessary plant shutdowns.
M.DOC — TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION, STORED SAFELY AND PERFECTLY ORGANIZED
This solution provides plant-wide access to all the facts and figures relating to your steel plant, thereby optimizing your documentation policy and ultimately helping you to maximize profits.
m.doc is a secure data-hosting service for your steel plant's technical documentation. m.doc provides access to the critical information that could save you time, money, and energy, enabling you to optimize your documentation policy and associated processes. Data processing and storage are integral elements of any business operation, and a proper documentation system that is easy to use and instantly accessible has tremendous benefits.
M.PREDICT — PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE BASED ON CONDITION MONITORING
Maximizing productivity and optimizing maintenance through advanced vibration analysis and early detection.
m.predict uses complex, route-based, and online vibration signature analysis for the early detection of potential failures, enabling steel producers to act quickly and avoid unscheduled downtime and, ultimately, potential disaster. Given that steel plants are home to sophisticated variable load and variable speed machinery, with multiple moving components all designed to work in perfect harmony, the loss of any one link in the chain could result in the breakdown of the entire system, so early detection of imminent failure is imperative. To identify potential problems it combines the analysis of mechanical vibration signatures with comprehensive knowledge about equipment design and function. Early detection is crucial to extending the lifecycle of equipment and maximizing plant utilization, while also allowing maintenance to be optimized and resources to be better managed.
M.FLEETGUARD — CONDITION MONITORING AND LOCATION TRACKING
Ensuring transparency across the entire fleet of vehicles. This system enables real-time monitoring and is geared toward boosting fleet efficiency.
Primetals Technologies’ new tracking service monitors all technical parameters in real time, feeding back information such as whether a truck is currently operational, its location, tire pressures, and even the road conditions. Not only does this allow planned budgets to be adhered to, it also enables fleet managers to locate specific trucks and drivers at any time via GPS. m.fleetguard will even send alerts whenever a scheduled route is changed, or if a technical problem is detected. m.fleetguard helps you to stay within your allocated budget and to curb costs, while also detecting technical issues early on and allowing you to take preventive action.
