22-Dec-2009 - RAD-CON DEVELOPS THE NEXT GENERATION IN BAF OPTIMIZATION
Shop Optimization added to CAPS™ Suite

RAD-CON, one of the world’s leading suppliers of 100% hydrogen, bell-type batch annealing furnaces and annealing optimization software, has launched a new Shop Optimization software model that takes BAF efficiency to the next level.
While the use of the company’s existing CAPS™ software for stacking, heating and cooling cycle optimization has significantly improved BAF efficiency, the new Shop Optimization model takes everything a step further by demonstratively directing the diverse activities on the shop floor to optimize operations. This approach increases shop capacity instead of just managing tasks within the shop.
Utilizing data from the stacking, heating and cooling model outputs, the Shop Optimization model determines the most efficient use of man and machinery to cut redundancy and eliminate bottlenecks.
RAD-CON’s Shop Optimization model provides significantly improved communication and assignment of tasks, reduces incidents of human error, improves equipment and manpower utilization, increases throughput capacity, lowers production costs, and improves quality levels.
In addition, BAF production becomes more predictable and effective which enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of downstream operations.
The Shop Optimization model can be added to existing shops or new RAD-CON installations that utilize CAPS™ Stacking, Heating and Cooling modules.
RAD-CON, Inc. is a leader in 100% hydrogen bell anneal systems and annealing production control technologies. Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, USA, the company designs, manufactures, installs, and services high-efficiency batch annealing equipment and optimization software for ferrous and non-ferrous sheet and wire markets around the world.
