RIB Software SE (RIB) signs a Phase-II-contract (No. 44 / 2021) with Fabcon Precast

Ravena, New York, 01 December 2021. RIB Software SE, the world's leading provider of iTWO 6D BIM ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) technology for the construction industry, today announced the conclusion of a next Phase-II-contract with Fabcon Precast, a provider specialised in precast concrete elements for various industries, for example data centers.

Fabcon Precast is a leading provider of structural precast panels with seven strategically placed manufacturing facilities in the U.S., offering a variety of precast solutions for data centers, logistics centers, distribution centers and other sectors such as healthcare, retail and offices. The manufacturing facility in Ravena is a new precast site with several production capabilities.

For a highly efficient production and most possible digitization on the shop floor, Fabcon decided to implement the highly innovative laser projection system "iTWO Smart Laser", as an integrating element of "iTWO MES" (Manufacturing Execution System) and a part of the MTWO platform. This laser projection system developed by RIB allows a high-precision and efficient measurement of precast concrete elements on the production table. It is an additional part of the "Smart Production family", which leads to a significant productivity increase and quality assurance and at the same time simplifies the daily tasks for the employees.

Jason Hensley, director of Research and Development at Fabcon Precast: "We have completed the implementation of iTWO Smart Laser in Kansas this summer and we see the benefits of it, improved quality, more efficiency and better working environment for our employees. The "iTWO Smart Laser" will bring us the same added value in Ravena and the great integration with MTWO platform."

Stefan Maier, managing director of RIB SAA in Vienna: "It is great to see, that the MTWO platform and Smart Production is supporting Fabcon already at other locations to improve productivity and this leads Fabcon to expand this technology at other locations as well. We appreciate to have such an innovative and forward-thinking customer!"
