BKO AI automated data transfer and calculations across many furnaces, significantly reducing manual labor from several months to just one month, and ensuring seamless adaptability to data changes.
Our customer faced a challenge in transferring calculations from one application to another across nearly 20 furnaces. With thousands of tags and unique formulas for each furnace, the manual calculation of critical features was a daunting and time-consuming task. Performing these calculations manually was estimated to take several months
Our teams innovative solution involved several key components:
◼ Automated Data Processing: BKO AI created a solution that seamlessly integrated with an excel mapping sheet containing thousands of tags used for calculations. This integration enabled automated data extraction, eliminating the need for manual data input.
◼ Formula Based Automation: Different calculation formulas, tailored to each furnace were built . BKO AI developed code which identified the specific functions required for calculations based on the Excel mapping sheet.
◼ Asset Tree and Permissions Management: Created an organized asset tree for the results, along with permissions management for each tag, ensuring data security and accessibility.
◼ Time Savings: What would have taken several months of manual labor was accomplished in one month. The automation capabilities significantly accelerated the project timeline.
◼ Adaptability to Data Changes: When our customer modified data source names or added prefixes to over 2000 tags, updating the calculations was seamless, eliminating the need for labor-intensive recalculations of the manual calculation method.
