SmartMelter allows customers to plan the life cycle of their furnaces with deterministic data and provides analysis of that data and the resulting reports and recommendations.

Abstract

Where do we expect SmartMelter services to develop in the future? We expect more customers to perform their own data collection with our easy to operate equipment This will save money on inspections while reducing the number of outsiders entering plants The turnaround time on this equipment including shipping will be much slower than if PaneraTech or our certified partner Fosbel is hand-carrying equipment to the plant and leaving with the equipment following completion of the data collection We have prepared for this by building additional sets of our proprietary hardware and making it even easier to use No matter how the industry wants to execute inspections, SmartMelter will be available through multiple channels to serve the customer's needs This may be through our Certified Partner, Fosbel, self-service, contract technicians or PaneraTech field engineers It is not important how the data is collected The value we provide is in the analysis of that data and the resulting reports and recommendations This allows customers to plan the life cycle of their furnaces with deterministic data © 2020 DMG World Media (UK) Ltd All rights reserved
