Technical Services
We provide advanced technical services to support carbon-based processes and products across multiple industries.
Our expertise spans performance diagnostics and continuous support, enabling KPI improvement through data-driven decisions, process optimization and lower cost strategies. We regularly conduct training courses to educate professionals on best practices about carbon anodes used in primary aluminum production.
Technical Audits and Benchmarking Investigations
We carry out comprehensive audits and benchmarking studies to evaluate the plant performance analyzing all processing steps from the raw materials to the product performance.
Our experts identify performance gaps, benchmark operations worldwide, and recommend sustainable improvements, enhancing efficiency, quality, and profitability.
Continuous Technical Support
We provide continuous technical support for production plants, including process monitoring, troubleshooting, and optimizations leveraging partners’ access to R&D Carbon laboratory and pilot plant facilities for industrial validation.
Our experts work closely with the management as well as with the process and operation teams to ensure the benchmark for stable performance and cost control.
Training Courses and Programs
We organize customized training courses and programs for the aluminium industry, empowering engineers, operators, and technical staff with the best practices, covering topics from the raw materials to the pot performance.
Since 1986, more than 3’500 professionals from across the aluminium and carbon industry were trained by R&D Carbon, transmitting knowledge, expertise, and best practices to generations of carbon material producers and aluminium smelters.
Swiss Anodes Made in China
In strategic partnership with Aminco Resources LLC., a globally active U.S.-based trading company, R&D Carbon has established a fully integrated model to produce “purchased anodes” in China, supporting the aluminium industry.
The entire production chain is monitored by our experts who select the appropriate raw materials and critical process parameters to achieve benchmarks standards in anode quality and batch stability. This end-to-end quality governance enables the flexibility to produce anodes tailored to all smelting technologies worldwide.
