To enhance efficiency in producing military and civilian vessels, PT PAL Indonesia needed to optimize its production workflows. Implementing Almacam allowed them to digitize their CAM processes, significantly boosting productivity and improving overall performance.
PT PAL Indonesia is a state-owned enterprise based in Surabaya, East Java, specializing in shipbuilding and providing repair and maintenance services for both military and civilian vessels. With over four decades of experience, the company has established a solid reputation for delivering high-quality products. Backed by a dedicated team of 1,500 employees, PT PAL Indonesia continues to be a key player in Indonesia’s shipbuilding industry.
PT PAL Indonesia initially faced significant challenges in adapting to the advancements of Industry 4.0. To overcome these, the company made substantial technological changes, focusing on automation and digitalization across its industrial processes.
As a strategic asset for the Indonesian government, modernizing ships production workflows was essential to ensure the budgets and timely delivery of critical projects, and meet the increasing demand for precision and efficiency in both military and civilian shipbuilding. Equipping the organization with modern CAM tools was a crucial step in enhancing productivity, optimizing resource utilization, and strengthening its role as a cornerstone of Indonesia’s maritime industry.
Before implementing Almacam, plate nesting processes were time-consuming and inefficient. One of the key steps taken was the adoption of Almacam software, which transformed plate nesting operations, making them faster and more material-efficient. This innovation allowed tasks to be completed more quickly and effectively.
The introduction of Almacam improved efficiency by up to 70%, saving both time and resources.
Since its adoption in 2020, Almacam has become a valuable asset for PT PAL, enabling faster and more straightforward operations for the team. The adoption of Almacam marked a significant milestone in PT PAL’s digital transformation journey.
