The WEEE recycling sector faces crucial challenges in efficiency and sustainability. OSAI Green Tech’s RE4M solution addresses these needs by automating the selection of precious metals. Thanks to the partnership with Siemens, the plant integrates 4.0 technologies that ensure operational precision, reducing waste and transforming scrap into strategic resources for a low-impact future.
Automation for the circular economy
Implementing the circular economy with Siemens and OSAI
Extract precious metals from electronic waste with the RE4M system. Thanks to TIA Portal integration and Siemens Industrial Edge, we optimize the recovery of gold, silver, and copper, making recycling processes faster, more scalable, and sustainable for modern industry.
Revolutionizing recycling with industrial automation
Optimizing resource recovery with digital solutions
Integrate systems into TIA Portal
Unified management of HMI, PLC, and drives in a single framework to simplify engineering and accelerate plant commissioning times.
Monitor consumption in real time
Use of Siemens Industrial Edge's SIMATIC ET200 SP Energy Meter and the Energy Manager app to detect anomalies and optimize the system's energy performance.
Harness the power of Industrial Edge
Advanced data processing directly on the machine for intelligent energy management and effective predictive maintenance.
OSAI: digital excellence in metal recovery
Optimizing extraction from electronic waste
The RE4M system is designed to identify and recover critical metals like gold, palladium, and copper from discarded circuit boards. Siemens automation ensures maximum reliability in the selection process, allowing OSAI Green Tech to offer a flagship solution in the sustainable technology sector.
Managing energy with pinpoint precision
Thanks to the multimeter integrated into the SIMATIC ET200 SP PLC, every variation in consumption is tracked. Integrating these metrics into the Siemens Industrial Edge ecosystem allows the technical team to view detailed dashboards, turning raw data into operational decisions to reduce the plant's carbon footprint.
