Process and automation advice
Compliance
Laws and legislation relating to production processes are becoming increasingly complicated and extensive. That makes it difficult for companies to have in-house experts for every discipline. Agidens (Fine) Chemicals has an extensive team of consultants and engineers who, in consultation, ensure that installations and processes comply with the most recent rules.
Maintenance & Reliability
Maintenance Specialists
Maintenance specialists often don’t have enough time for jobs such as reliability engineering, work preparation and planning, shutdown coordination, contract management, or budgeting. Such tasks also require specific knowledge and tools. Our specialists can provide long-term or short-term support.
Maintenance & Reliability engineering
As maintenance partner, Agidens (Fine) Chemicals strives towards a maximum technical reliability of the installations. Our maintenance engineers and reliability engineers have many years of practical experience and can provide advice in various areas: Preventive Maintenance, Reliability Centered Maintenance, Root Cause Analysis, and Spare Parts Management.
Technical Management
A sound maintenance plan alone is not enough. This is why we also help to set up appropriate procedures for maintenance and asset management. We scan the current asset management and advise on setting up aspects such as procedures, lifecycle cost analysis, software implementation, and ISO 55000 certification.
Maintenance & Reliability training
Do you want to lower maintenance costs without jeopardizing quality, staff, or installations? This requires properly trained staff. Agidens (Fine) Chemicals provides a full package of courses on asset management and industrial maintenance, maintenance management, maintenance engineering, and safety.
Operational Excellence
Lean
The ‘Lean’ philosophy focuses on ‘no waste’ in the performance of installations and stakeholders, and is a key concept in all our projects. This means that no superfluous tasks are carried out during the production process so that no unnecessary costs are generated. Besides, the focus is not only on efficiency and effectiveness, but also on flexibility to be able to respond optimally to changing circumstances.
Six Sigma
Deploying staff, materials, and machines in the most cost-effective possible way, eliminating losses, having the right employee in the right place, and creating a logical flow throughout the organization, makes everything run smoothly. The focus here is often data-driven, but a methodical approach is crucial in order to make sure that improvements are permanent.
Energy & Sustainability
In today’s society, businesses realize that sustainability is no longer simply an option, but a requirement for any company. Businesses are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of their ecological footprint, and are trying to find ways to reduce their impact on the environment.
Agidens has already been working actively on sustainability issues for many years – not just for us, but for our clients too. You can draw on our consultants’ expertise to help reduce consumption, eliminate waste and generally do more with less.
Energy Audit
The first step in reducing energy use is to gain insight into the energy flows. We conduct audits at companies to assess energy flows, identify waste and set out energy-saving measures. With our audits and advice, we help companies meet their legal obligations and their own sustainability goals.
Energy Optimization
Our consultants and engineers not only identify energy-saving opportunities but also provide assistance with the actual implementation. Backed by our technical expertise and hands-on experience in industry, we support you every step of the way, from defining the scope of the project to the turnkey delivery of all optimizations.
Technical Safety
Functional Safety
Functional Safety focuses on the effective operation and reliability of safety functions, including safety PLC and valves, rupture discs, detection systems, emergency stop functions, etc. Our TÜV-accredited Functional Safety Engineers help determine the safety level and failure probability for the product or installation
