W O R K S H O P To produce highly technical high speed turbo technology quickly and safely, employees, components and machines communicate with one another in the Boge Smart Factory. BOGE INAUGURATES ITS INTELLIGENT FACTORY Smart series production for individual customer turbo technology Innovative, unique and individual to the customer – this is what the design of the Boge HST high speed turbo compressors stands for. At more than 100,000 revolutions per minute in use, every component has to fit. To enable high-quality and faultless production, Boge Kmpressoren has invested around EUR 2 million in intelligent production at Bielefeld. A production line of 2,000m2 has now gone into operation, which connects components, technology and employees with one another. “Our high speed turbo compressor is the answer to the increasing demand for individual customer solutions and greater energy efficiency at the same time”, says Thorsten Meier, ceo of Boge. “To make the production and installation of the innovative machine concept simple and safe, we have modified groundbreaking production technology for our requirements.” The model for the intelligent smart factory is the SmartFactoryOWL in Lemgo. The prototypes installed there have been tested, and suitable processes for Boge series production have been further developed.
