PRODUCTION

Intercable has set itself the goal of becoming a "smart factory". In order to achieve this goal, Intercable uses the most modern approaches of Industry 4.0. The vision is that customer orders are automatically recorded, the machine park is configured accordingly and the products are produced just in time with the highest quality for the customer. The foundation for this vision was created through the implementation of a lean management concept.

Building on top of this concept, Intercable has been systematically working on automation and digitization strategy in recent years. Despite our multiple production processes, our automation concepts are standardized. This guarantees high-quality, stable and efficient production at favorable conditions. Depending on the customer order and corresponding production volume, solutions with a wide variety of automation levels can be realized.

Intercable equipment includes, among other things, ergonomic workstations, semi-automatic assembly islands, fully automated assembly systems and even complex assembly lines. Intercable is also able to conceptualize, construct, assemble and retract such in-house resources. The benefits of improved automation come into play only through the corresponding digitization.

Through several strategic projects, Intercable has succeeded in creating a digital image of our ongoing production in real time. All machine data is recorded and condensed to corresponding key performance indicators. In addition to the production data, other systems (such as CAQ, ERP) are also included in the data analysis. Industry 4.0 is not just a marketing headline at Intercable, but also finds its echo in the conceptual design of all production facilities.
