SungEel HiTech Implements PlantPAx DCS for Smart Battery Recycling Factory

SungEel HiTech's lithium-ion battery recycling processes—discharging, disassembly, crushing, melting, and hydrometallurgical refining—were managed by different systems per process. This created data blind spots, manual control limitations, and challenges complying with tightening EU Battery Directive safety and environmental regulations.

SungEel HiTech implemented Rockwell Automation's PlantPAx Modern Distributed Control System to integrate all individual unit processes under a single platform, enabling centralized monitoring, data collection, and safety compliance.

Improved productivity and quality across recycling operations. Enhanced process visibility with rapid response capability. Strengthened safety and environmental regulation compliance, including EU Battery Directive requirements. Foundation established for smart factory implementation.

• Integrating disparate process control systems under a single DCS platform eliminates data blind spots in complex manufacturing operations
• Battery recycling facilities face unique regulatory compliance requirements that modern DCS platforms can address with built-in safety management
• The circular economy for EV batteries requires sophisticated process control to achieve the recovery rates mandated by international environmental regulations
