CRC Evans launches DATA360 for real-time monitoring during welding, coating, inspection
CRC Evans has launched a new digital platform to streamline data management for welding, coating, and inspection for customers in the oil and gas and infrastructure sectors.
The DATA360 platform works to provide expedited access to production data, improved analytical capabilities and precise data tagging. This reduces downtime and minimizes the number of inspection personnel required to extract, transform, and analyze data, CRC Evans stated in a news release. Additionally, the platform serves as a data repository of as-built documentation for customer infrastructure, with data curated and ready to use for compliance needs.
The DATA360 platform enables real-time monitoring of production activities during welding, coating, and inspection. The platform utilizes long-range Wi-Fi communication, which allows for the wireless downloading of logs from all stations and evaluates the status of joints based on the parameters established during the qualification process.
"We are committed to developing advanced digital products and solutions like DATA360 to meet the evolving needs of our clients," added Vinay Baburao, Director, Digital Transformation for CRC Evans. "Leveraging DATA360 allows users to streamline operations, enhance decision-making, and boost overall business performance.”
"By staying ahead of technology trends and market shifts, we ensure that our offerings remain competitive and deliver innovation and operational efficiency," said Shailesh Radhakrishnan (VP, Engineering & Technology) of CRC Evans. "With 90 years of expertise, we remain committed to adapting and diversifying to ensure long-term value and sustainable growth."
DATA360 collects all the critical parameters for welding, coating, and inspection, including arc voltage, current, and heat input, alongside coating metrics and inspection results.
Through the DATA360 cloud, customers can access tailored production data anytime, anywhere, without additional time for data processing.
