Metso's digital strategy builds on the company's core competencies in equipment excellence, processing, and metallurgical and material expertise combined with technical and field services support and enriched with leading-edge digital capabilities. The studio plays an important role in the development and implementation of digital solutions to enable customer value creation and to meet the needs of the industry.

 

"Opening of the Digital Design and Development Studio marks the next phase in our digital offering development journey. This new digital capabilities and knowledge hub centers around the competences related to software development, design, data, UX design and AI required to serve our customers' increasing appetite for advanced digital solutions," says Olivier Guyot, Senior Vice President for Minerals Digital at Metso.

 

Today, Metso has approximately 50 digital experts working in the Krakow office, and the number is expected to increase significantly within the next months. Overall, Metso has some 250 people working on its rich portfolio of digital solutions.

 

"Digital is a critical enabler for new sources of value because it helps our clients to optimise throughput and recoveries, increase equipment uptime and availability, and enable productivity while improving the sustainability of their operations. Digital solutions can also be the answer to reducing the knowledge gap and labor shortage in the industry," says Guyot.

 

In digital development for minerals processing customers, Metso is focusing on three main impact areas: Equipment performance to provide digitally enhanced Life Cycle Services, remote condition monitoring and prescriptive maintenance; Process performance digital portfolio to optimise customers' ore-to-metal operations for efficiency and sustainability; and Business enablement to enhance the customer experience and improve employees' productivity within a data-driven, AI-augmented environment.

 

Metso is developing several solutions across these three areas. The new talents in the Digital Design and Development Studio in Poland will contribute to these, working closely with the global team.
