Automation at the Highest Level at Norsk Hydro Extrusions

At the production site in Nenzing (AT), Hydro Extrusion Nenzing GmbH has taken another step towards future-oriented manufacturing: With the commissioning of the new P40 extrusion press (40 meganewton press force), the plant is among the most modern of its kind in Europe. We are pleased to have supported and contributed to this flagship project with our innovative software solutions.

Setting Standards in Automation and Efficiency

The solutions of our OneBase^®WORLD take over the fully automatic control of the entire production flow – from material provision through press control to the delivery of finished profiles. The result: maximum efficiency, transparency, and process reliability.

Implementation Highlights:

Fully automatic control of the entire P40 production line through the OneBase^® manufacturing execution system
Intelligent material and transport management via OneBase^®MFT
Seamless integration into existing systems (P16, basket management, bar storage)
Real-time data for maximum transparency and complete traceability
Highest process reliability with minimal manual intervention

With the new P40 extrusion line, we have taken an important step towards the future. Thanks to the well-designed manufacturing execution system from ABF, we were able to achieve a maximum level of automation – unique in this depth and quality in our industry. The collaboration with ABF was professional, cooperative, and goal-oriented from the very beginning.
