Warsteiner brewed by ProLeiT
The comprehensive modernization of process control systems or the migration of automation software to state-of-the-art technology are major prerequisites for more efficient and competitive brewing processes. The Warsteiner Brewery has therefore recently converted the automation technology of its entire brewing plant to ProLeiT’s modern brewmaxx V8 process control system in several project steps. In this way, the company is creating ideal conditions for extra-high productivity; on the basis of integrated materials management, the company has for the first time also achieved consistent traceability for breweries. This multi-stage project clearly demonstrates that a fundamental modernization approach of this kind can only be successful if all of the operator’s and suppliers’ specialists cooperate as closely as possible. The automation specialists require a comprehensive understanding of brewing processes because this is the only way to successfully modernize brewing plants during production.
