Dürr expands software business
Bietigheim-Bissingen, December 18, 2012 - Following high demand from the
automotive industry, Dürr is further expanding its business with software
for production operations. In the BRIC states the EcoEMOS supervisory
control technology software has been ordered in around 90% of all the
Group's major plant engineering projects in the last five years. In China
EcoEMOS is in use by all but one of the carmakers who use Dürr systems for
painting and assembly operations. Worldwide over 60 car plants in 20
countries are using the program for the overall control and monitoring of
production processes.
Dürr is the only manufacturer of paintshop systems who offers its very own
supervisory control system software. The Group can call on its expertise in
automotive production as it further develops the program. Ralf W. Dieter,
CEO of Dürr AG: 'We are further expanding our software provision in light
of the advancing digitization of production. Compared with other software
providers who service different sectors, we are able to address the special
requirements of the automotive industry faster and more precisely'.
Among the carmakers who use EcoEMOS in multiple plants are Volkswagen,
Hyundai and Ford. EcoEmos is also increasingly being used as a shop-floor
IT solution covering the entire production process for the bodies-in-white,
paintshop and vehicle final assembly.
Operators can use the software, for example, to check the system status
(temperature, energy and material consumption etc.), analyze productivity
or control model sequences. Dürr transacts sales worth double-digit
millions of euros with EcoEMOS. In future, the supervisory control system
software is also to be offered increasingly to truck manufacturers, the
aviation industry and to producers of engines and gearboxes.
Dürr is a mechanical and plant engineering group that holds leading
positions in the world market in its areas of operation. It generates a
good 80% of its sales in business with the automotive industry. It also
supplies the aircraft, machinery, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries
with innovative production and environmental technology. The Dürr Group
operates in the market with four divisions: Paint and Assembly Systems
plans and builds paintshops and final assembly systems for the automotive
and aircraft industries. Application Technology provides automated paint
application, sealing, and glueing with its robot technologies. Machinery
and systems from the Measuring and Process Systems division are used in
balancing and cleaning processes, in engine and transmission manufacturing
and in final vehicle assembly, among other areas. The fourth division,
Clean Technology Systems, is focused on processes to improve energy
efficiency and on exhaust air purification. Dürr has 50 business locations
in 23 countries worldwide and approximately 7,500 employees. The Group
achieved sales of EUR1.9 billion in 2011.
