Heavy Machinery and Equipment

Where power meets precision to shape the world we live in.

Whether you're in construction, agriculture, mining, forestry, or any other field manufacturing heavy machinery, you understand the profound impact these machines have on our lives. They are part of the foundation of the roads we drive on, the buildings we work in, and the food we eat.

At Atlas Copco, we are dedicated to creating tools and solutions that are reliable and safe, environmentally responsible, and tailored to your specific needs.

 

Embracing Change in the evolution of the Heavy Machinery Manufacturing Industry

In today's dynamic industrial landscape, the heavy machinery and equipment industry is experiencing a rapid transformation to meet ever-increasing demands. Manufacturers in this sector are facing an exciting yet challenging era of change.

 

One of the primary drivers of this transformation is technology. Automation, artificial intelligence, and data analytics are becoming integral to manufacturing.  Atlas Copco is here to help provide tools and solutions for cutting-edge technologies to enhance your efficiency, reduce downtime, and improve your overall performance, benefitting not only your bottom line but also to provide you with tools to align with the growing demand for sustainability.

 

Smarter Manufacturing in Smart Factories

The Industry 4.0 Smart Factory is a digitized and highly automated manufacturing facility that uses connected devices, machinery and production systems to continuously collect and share data. Data that can be used to improve processes as well as proactively address any issues that may arise along the production line.

Sustainability

By better controlling the assembly process down to the individual station, transitioning to smarter tools and solutions reduces the number of reworks and recalls. Materials and energy are used more efficiently and unnecessary waste is minimized. Advantages that help reduce carbon footprint. In addition, improved traceability enables more predictive maintenance which further reduces resource waste. Sustainability offers a decisive competitive advantage that matters to customers and to the bottom line profitability of any heavy equipment manufacturer.

Guidance

Within the heavy equipment manufacturing industry there are typically many variants running in the production line. Intuitive interfaces such as positioning systems and error-proofing software, interact with the operator as they work and provide continuous guidance. This reduces the responsibility on the operator and helps them perform tasks the correct tasks in the correct order. Advantages that ease the need for extensive training and ultimately reduce costs for reworks. Minimizing human errors will ultimately lead to improved products quality and consistency.

Quality Assurance

Many errors are too difficult for humans to detect, and the processes are very complex . With tool, joint, visual and dimensional checks performed by a single platform it reduces the need for multiple quality devices. Compliant with quality standards the QA Platform 4.0 optimizes operational costs by reducing defects, reworks, and product recalls.

The Atlas Copco roadmap to Smarter Manufacturing

Smart Integrated Assembly is our five step concept for industrial manufacturers looking to transform and implement Smart Factories. It encompasses our ecosystem of tools, hardware, software and services solutions providing unrivalled competitive value in each step of the customers’ product manufacturing cycles. The result is more efficient, flexible, adaptable, and safe manufacturing processes that support reduced downtime, better use of materials and energy and a substantial waste reduction.
