The Wired Factory: Real-Time Manufacturing Operations for Cable Producers

Grid demand is surging, and high-voltage cable makers are being asked to deliver more metres, more variants and more proof of quality, all at once. This webinar shows how to scale production without scaling complexity. You’ll see how a virtual factory twin connected to the shop floor brings continuous extrusion and discrete drumming, jointing and testing into one predictable production system. Through real demo walkthroughs, we’ll show how to validate capacity before you invest, keep schedules on track through changeovers, and give every metre of cable a complete, auditable history from design release to certified drum.

What you’ll take away

• Why adding capacity usually adds complexity, and how to break that cycle
• How to find hidden bottlenecks like degassing before you commit to new lines
• How to schedule changeovers and campaign runs that spreadsheets and ERP can’t handle
• How to manage continuous and discrete processes in a single manufacturing definition
• How to trace every metre back to its compound lot, extrusion run and test results
• How feeding real plant data back into the twin drives continuous improvement
