In the heart of southwestern Kentucky, Logan Aluminum, a titan in the aluminum sheet production industry, embarked on a groundbreaking journey to enhance safety, security, and efficiency across its massive 1,110-acre campus. By implementing a cutting-edge integrated technology ecosystem from Motorola Solutions, Logan Aluminum has not only addressed longstanding communication challenges but has also set a new standard for smart manufacturing.
Logan Aluminum faced several critical issues:
- Unreliable radio coverage across their expansive plant
- Outdated video systems with blind spots and manual review processes
- Disparate technologies limiting system effectiveness and future upgrades
To tackle these challenges head-on, Logan Aluminum deployed a comprehensive Motorola Solutions ecosystem. The implementation of Motorola Solutions’ integrated ecosystem has dramatically transformed Logan Aluminum’s operations. The new radio system provides clear, reliable coverage across the entire campus, including previously problematic areas, significantly enhancing communication and safety. The advanced camera system offers flexible placement and intelligent automation, proactively alerting security teams to potential issues.
The orchestration platform seamlessly integrates these technologies, streamlining operations and enabling more efficient, proactive security measures. This integration also provides valuable data insights, allowing for optimized resource allocation and improved plant operations. In one example, Joseph Jenkins, Loss Prevention Leader at Logan said, “Now our camera system provides automatic notifications on our radios when anyone comes to the admin building.”
