In the dynamic Bizkaia Open Future event, a collaborative initiative by the Provincial Council of Bizkaia and Telefónica, we sought innovative solutions to enhance the efficiency of loading processes in our rotary furnaces for aluminum recycling.
The challenge attracted 29 startups and SMEs from both national and international backgrounds, demonstrating the global commitment to industrial digital transformation—a field where we are pioneers, striving to deliver intelligent furnace solutions to our clients.
Datu(a) Smart Digital, a Basque startup specializing in data-based consulting and digital services, emerged as the winner. Their approach not only aligns with our digitalization goals but also enhances our Beyond 4.0 services. This collaboration aims to optimize the timing of material charging in rotary furnaces, automate decision-making processes, and reduce the subjectivity introduced by human factors.
We extend our gratitude to all participants, especially Datua, whose innovative strategies are instrumental in refining our operations and service offerings. This partnership exemplifies our commitment to embracing cutting-edge technologies to better serve our industry and customers.
