Digital Industries (Pty) Ltd signs an AVEVA Select partnership agreement to grow its footprint in the East and West Africa regions

South Africa, Johannesburg, 23 March 2023 – Digital Industries (DI) through its business unit Industry Software Solutions and Support (IS³), announced that it has become an AVEVA Select partner for the East and West Africa regions. AVEVA Select partnership allows Digital Industries to deliver AVEVA’s full portfolio of leading-edge industrial software solutions to customers that will help them become more sustainable and profitable.

The AVEVA Select agreement has set specific strategic intent to support customers’ requirements for improving operational efficiency, driving better returns and increasing the sustainability of their businesses. A people-based ecosystem driving digital transformation is the key enabler to achieving these strategic objectives on the African continent. DI will expand its ecosystem of customers and partners who want to adopt technologies to enable their digital transformation. Leveraging existing indigenous knowledge and skills and creating new skills pools is the key differentiator.

In East Africa, the regional footprint will be led by Kenyan operations AVEVA Select East Africa and the Nigerian representative offices AVEVA Select West Africa will take on a similar role in West Africa. Both these operations are also investing heavily in establishing training and demonstration centres to build these skills pools and to equip system integrators, partner companies and end-users with skills to enable them to maximize the use of the technology and to customize the service offerings available.

The coveted ‘AVEVA Select Partner’ designation allows distributors to enable customers simplify design, optimize production, and maximize performance. By leveraging the breadth of the AVEVA software portfolio, AVEVA Select partners can take advantage of programs designed to suit every product and solution specialization in the engineering and industrial segments. The AVEVA Select Program offers an effective way for partners to penetrate new markets and build upon existing solutions and local relationships.

The AVEVA Select partnership has accelerated the value that DI can provide, empowering their customers and partners to optimize engineering, operations, and asset performance. A common digital thread across all enterprise pillars is enabling a new level of Performance Intelligence using bedrock technologies from Artificial Intelligence (AI), Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), big data to the cloud and hybrid solutions.

With AVEVA’s Engineering solutions, they can assist customers in efficiently delivering capital projects on time and within budget. The AVEVA Operations suite eliminates supply chain value leaks while improving operational efficiency and enhancing collaboration. DI can also empower customers and partners to balance operating expenses and risk to optimize performance with AVEVA Asset Performance Management.

“Digital Industries’ customers and partners will continue to get the same dedicated local support, now with the added value of wider access to AVEVA’s complete portfolio of solutions, which enables a new level of Performance Intelligence using technologies such as AI, IIoT, big data and cloud. The AVEVA Select program helps our distributors to deliver even more value and support their customers digital transformation initiatives,” said Kerry Grimes, AVEVAs Global Head of Partners. “We are pleased to extend Digital Industries coverage as an AVEVA Select partner and look forward to developing and capitalizing on mutually beneficial growth strategies.”

“The Industrial sector in Africa is the final frontier for at scale digital transformation. Leaders in industry are adopting strategies for digital transformation across the continent. The market for industrial software and services is increasing exponentially and growth will be driven by customer value creation. As an AVEVA Select partner, we are on a journey to create sustainable digital champions. We look forward to industrial organizations joining us,” concluded Dion Govender, CEO of Digital Industries and Managing Director of IS³.

    AECI Mining Explosives (formerly AEL) – Raw Material and Product Tracking

    Read the success story below

    AEL (now AECI Mining Explosives) gives its customers a bigger bang for their buck with help from IS³

    There are few industries that demand more focused attention than the manufacture of explosives. Reliability, accuracy, safety and predictability are top of the agenda for the manufacture of detonators, since they start the explosion process and are responsible for its timing and precision. AECI Mining Explosives saw the need for a raw material and product tracking solution that would eliminate process variability while providing traceability into the composition of product batches.

    The new raw material and product tracking system gives us a far greater degree of control over sustained quality, product consistency and process improvement.”

    About AECI Mining Explosives

    AECI Mining Explosives serves the underground narrow reef and massive mining segments, as well as the surface opencast, open pit, quarrying and construction segments. The company focuses on taking the very latest technology and concepts into these diverse segments and providing them with the full range of technically advanced products and services they require. A powerful combination of expertise and experience enables the company to respond to changing market needs with precision and agility.

    Background

    At the Initiating Systems Automated Plant (ISAP), AECI Mining Explosives manufactures detonator assemblies consisting of raw materials, delay powders, delay elements, tubes and shock tubes. Previously, the batch tracking of raw materials and products used in the manufacture of detonators was done with a paper-based system which was prone to human error. It was time for a change and with the business objectives of improving customer relations and AECI Mining Explosives’s competitiveness, as well as consolidating the use of raw materials, the company decided that a greater degree of automation was desirable. Any chosen solution would also have to meet the operational requirements of improving product quality (stop faulty products in their tracks), tracking back from the customer into the batch process to determine the cause of any product failure, decrease human error and assist in the evaluation of the properties and performance of raw materials used in production.

    Solution Selection

    AECI Mining Explosives chose system integrator Advansys for the implementation because of previous experience and their wide knowledge of the AVEVA (formerly Wonderware) product range. AECI Mining Explosives had previously selected Wonderware’s Production Events Module (today part of the Equipment Operations Module of AVEVA System Platform) to capture real-time process data, link the batch process to execution and to provide detailed batch data reports for analysis. The Production Events Module would track what material was consumed and produced by the process and would work in conjunction with Historian, AVEVA System Platform (Galaxy Repository, Industrial Application Server) and dual-redundant Application Object Servers.

    Implementation

    “In my opinion, the ability to develop templates which suit most of the tracking functions needed as well as their reusability are two of the most outstanding features of the underlying ArchestrA technology,” says Braam Venter, Megatronics Engineer, Advansys (Pty) Ltd. “Another highlight was the ease of use and the ability to integrate with the Historian .NET components.”

    Advansys used a top-down approach which included addressing the operator interfaces which consisted of existing WinCC Flexible touch panels that could only communicate with the PLC. This meant that all the operator instructions had to be routed through the PLC, which led to the development of standard screens with text fields to view messages from the Industrial Application Server. The ability to manage text messages and HMI data from within the Industrial Application Server reduced implementation and commissioning times.

    Real-time process data is captured at each production event and this can then be used to analyse if a certain batch is faulty. A production database was implemented for raw material inputs for the production personnel as well as formula management for the various Delay Powder recipes. This database is used as a scanner interface between the Industrial Application Server and the scanners at various production screens.

    “The Industrial Application Server is used to drive the production processes via a PLC and WinCC Flexible touch panels,” explains Venter. “The relevant data is then logged in a ProdDB (PEM database). Formulae and raw material data are stored in a production database. A production website has been developed for raw material and formula inputs as well as tracking information. An SAP interface table had to be designed for communicating product quantity produced and consumed.”

    A database connection .net object was developed by Advansys to ease the integration with the production database. A scanner driver was written to read UDP packets from the scanner RS232 to UDP converters. This scanner driver then updates the production database with the scanned data.

    Benefits

    • AECI Mining Explosives now has an accurate tracking system on which the company and its customers can rely
    • Improved competitive positioning
    • No more paperwork means less human error and improved operator confidence

    In my opinion, the ability to develop templates which suit most of the tracking functions needed as well as their reusability are two of the most outstanding features of the underlying ArchestrA technology.”

    Conclusion

    The new raw material and product tracking system at AECI Mining Explosives’s Initiating Systems Automated Plant is helping the company maintain its century-old formula of agility in dealing with market and technological developments. Accurate and rapid backtracking is helping to pinpoint and isolate problem areas faster than ever before and to continuously improve on product quality while minimising waste and evaluating raw material specifications. As such, the new tracking system is helping to keep the wheels of the mining industry moving more effectively at a time when it needs it most.
