First collaboration of it’s kind in the manufacturing sector
Dubai, – e& UAE, the telecommunications arm of global technology group e&, and EMSTEEL Group, the UAE’s largest steel and building materials manufacturer have come together for a first of a kind collaboration in the manufacturing sector to design & deploy the next generation of advanced 5G network.
e& UAE’s 5G private virtual network significantly reduces operational expenses and improves worker health, safety, and environment (HSE). This network will set to enable the Industry 4.0 advanced digital use cases which will significantly reduce operational cost increase productivity and enhance ensure Health & safety of workers.
EMSTEEL will be the first to utilise the power of the 5G Slicing of the UAE. Under the agreement, e& UAE’s industrial connectivity proposition will also feature customisable 5G slicing, enabling EMSTEEL to cost-effectively tailor network resources for specific applications and optimise performance across various manufacturing processes.
Masood M. Sharif Mahmood, Chief Executive Officer, e& UAE, said: “This partnership with EMSTEEL marks a significant milestone in our journey to redefine the boundaries of industrial connectivity. By expanding the reach of 5G private virtual networks into the manufacturing sector, we’re empowering businesses to unlock unprecedented levels of efficiency, safety, and sustainability.”
Eng. Saeed Ghumran Al Remeithi, Group CEO, EMSTEEL, said: “Partnering with e& UAE is a defining step in EMSTEEL’s journey toward a future of advanced, connected manufacturing. This collaboration enables us to pioneer Industry 4.0 capabilities that enhance operational efficiencies and drive sustainability. By integrating real-time communication and predictive automation, we are setting new benchmarks in productivity and environmental stewardship, aligning with our commitment to innovative and sustainable growth for the UAE’s industrial sector”
By harnessing the power of a dedicated 5G private virtual network and advanced 5G slicing, EMSTEEL can revolutionise its manufacturing operations. Real-time communication and automation across production processes become a reality, significantly enhancing safety through immediate monitoring of equipment health and worker conditions, allowing for timely interventions.
5G’s ultra-low latency and high bandwidth facilitate seamless integration of AI-driven machinery and predictive maintenance, optimising efficiency and minimising downtime. Furthermore, the integration of IoT sensors and smart analytics enables EMSTEEL to monitor and reduce energy consumption and emissions, aligning with its sustainability objectives. In essence, 5G private networks and slicing empower EMSTEEL to create a more connected, intelligent, and sustainable manufacturing environment.
Building upon the successful partnership with ADNOC to create the energy industry’s largest 5G private network, the MoU with EMSTEEL further expands e&’s commitment to leveraging 5G technology across various sectors, including manufacturing.
