PRECAST CONCRETE ELEMENTS76 CPI %u2013 Concrete Plant International | India Edition %u2013 1 | 2026 www.cpi-worldwide.com%u201cDigitalization in the precast industry is still at a relatively low level compared to many other sectors. Today, decisions in concrete element production often rely on individual experience rather than data and facts. We frequently see a conflict between maximizing short-term output and performing proper maintenance, which can lead to a run-to-failure strategy. In the long run, this approach jeopardizes performance and results.%u201d %u2013 Lasse Eriksson, VP Service, ElematicWith connectivity now embedded as a standard feature, the Extruder P7 and E9 models can transmit production data to the cloud, enabling seamless integration with Elematic%u2019s Fleet Management digital service. Operators and managers can monitor machine status, plan production more effectively, and anticipate maintenance needs before issues arise.From machines to smart systemsThis is more than a product upgrade %u2013 it is a shift in philosophy. By turning extruders into smart, connected systems, Elematic provides its customers with actionable insights. The result is a more resilient production environment where decisions are informed by data and downtime is minimized.The connectivity feature also supports predictive maintenance, helping teams stay ahead of potential disruptions. And while data transmission capability is built into every new extruder, customers can choose to activate it through a subscription to the Fleet Management service, allowing flexibility based on operational needs.%u201cNew digital solutions bring facts to the table, enabling better decisions. For example, knowing the remaining lifetime of a feeding screw in an extruder allows maintenance to be planned at the optimal time. This allows you to compare the cost of maintenance and parts with the potential cost of lower product quality and extra raw material caused by a worn component. In the end, optimizing production output becomes much easier when you have the facts. That%u2019s exactly what digitalization and connectivity make possible.%u201d %u2013 Lasse Eriksson, VP Service, ElematicElematic Fleet Management on a computer screen.
