Cardamom Tech is an operating-floor consultancy for steel and heavy industrial producers. We work inside your plants — furnaces, rolling lines, converters — to close the gap between installed capacity and delivered performance.
Fig. 01 — What We Do
Each engagement is built from the same core disciplines, sequenced to the plant's real constraints — not a generic playbook.
Debottlenecking, line balancing and lean shop-floor systems that lift throughput without new capex.

Read more →Root-cause elimination of defects and rejections, tightening process windows batch to batch.
Read more →Maintenance strategy redesign that converts breakdown hours into planned, predictable uptime.
Read more →Specific energy consumption reduction and emissions-intensity pathways aligned to plant economics.
Read more →Process-data infrastructure and control-loop analytics that make the other five disciplines durable.

Four stages, in order — because a fix installed before the diagnosis is finished doesn't hold.
Shop-floor time-and-motion, process-data audit and loss-tree mapping to find where value actually leaks.
A prioritised, costed intervention plan — sequenced by payback and built with your plant teams, not around them.
Joint implementation on the floor: shift-level coaching, standard work, and control-room changes that stick.
KPI governance and capability transfer so gains hold long after our last shift on site.
