Lumel 4.0 - New chapter | Press conference
The first press conference in our new location was held today. The president of Lumel, Dinesh Musalekar, invited journalists to the new headquarters to reveal how the latest production technologies in line with the concept of industry 4.0 meet solutions protecting the environment as well as sports and recreation infrastructure for the company’s employees.
At the beginning of his speech, the President pointed to the fact that the new plant was one of the infrastructural elements of the 2020 Strategy adopted by the company in 2014.
As he emphasized, the foundation of the new headquarters is related to Lumel’s development plans in the coming years in 3 basic areas, namely:
- continuation of work on products and services related to industrial automation and traditional energy
- development of works and services in the field of renewable energy,
- development of services related to contract assembly, among others for the automotive sector to which Lumel Alucast already supplies its products.
„The idea of 4.0 industry has been present in the company for several years. All our new products for the management of industrial processes or building automation systems have
a built-in MQTT protocol (dedicated to IoT solutions), which, using appropriate software, eg Marc - provides the necessary process data for the so-called „cloud”. We sell these solutions all over the world and also the new Lumel 4.0 plant is based on them. We also use IoT solutions in our photovoltaic installations, which provide energy for production in both plants ”- the President of Lumel Dinesh Musalekar summed up the presentation.
