Pomini Tenova and Siemens Enhance Roll Grinder Partnership for ASEAN Factories
Pomini Tenova and Siemens are expanding their partnership to modernize roll grinders, offering significant benefits for ASEAN factories.
A New Era of Roll Grinder Modernization for ASEAN Factories \\[Pomini Tenova](https://www.pominitenova.com/) and [Siemens](https://www.siemens.com/) have announced an expanded partnership aimed at modernizing roll grinders in the rolling mill sector. This collaboration, which has a history spanning over four decades, is set to bring state-of-the-art CNC and automation technology to nearly 1,000 Pomini Tenova machines already in use. The focus on revamping and modernizing these machines is particularly relevant for ASEAN factories, where the demand for efficient and reliable equipment is high. \\[The partnership](https://www.siemens.com/global/en/home/company/topic-areas/digitalization/industry/focus-topics/roll-grinder-modernization.html) aims to extend the service life of existing machinery, preserve investments, and enhance operational efficiency. For factories in Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Malaysia, this means reduced downtime, improved safety, and better grinding performance. \\[Pomini Tenova](https://www.pominitenova.com/) will provide roll grinding, inspection, roll shop automation, and digital systems, while [Siemens](https://www.siemens.com/) will contribute with advanced CNC control systems, drives, and automation technology. The integration of these technologies includes safety and cybersecurity measures, ensuring that the machines are not only efficient but also secure. \\[One of the key aspects of this collaboration is the move towards more autonomous machine operation. By combining mechanical upgrades and process-specific accessories with digital monitoring, diagnostic tools, and predictive maintenance systems, the companies aim to reduce human intervention and improve overall performance. This is particularly beneficial for ASEAN factories, where labor costs and the need for skilled operators can be significant challenges. \\[The use of Industrial AI-based features for process optimization is another highlight of this partnership. These features can help factories in the region to achieve higher levels of productivity and quality, making them more competitive in the global market. For factory buyers in ASEAN, the modernization of roll grinders through this partnership offers a clear path to increased efficiency, reduced costs, and enhanced safety. \\[In conclusion, the expanded partnership between Pomini Tenova and Siemens brings a new level of technological advancement to the roll grinder industry, with significant implications for ASEAN factories. By embracing these modern solutions, factory owners can ensure that their operations remain at the forefront of industrial innovation, driving growth and competitiveness in the region.
