Could you briefly tell us about yourself and your role at OMEGA Dashboard?

I was born in Karabük in 1983. After graduating from Girne American University Electrical and Electronics Engineering in 2007, I worked in the proposal and project management departments of different companies. In the renewable energy sector, I have specialized in this field by receiving various trainings on quality and technical issues.

Since 2012, I have been continuing my career at Omega Pano. I worked on Low Voltage Panel design and bidding as Customer Manager for 5 years.

In 2018, I assumed the duty of Sales and Marketing Manager and worked especially to increase Foreign Trade. Currently, while continuing my career as Assistant General Manager, I am carrying out activities related to the creation of sales and marketing strategies, especially abroad.

What is your product range and its features?

As Omega Pano, we started to produce Siemens brand type-tested panels in 2003 and signed a Sivacon Technology Partnership Agreement in 2006.

If we briefly talk about our Siemens brand panel products and their features;

-Siemens Sivacon S8: IEC61439-1/2 Standards up to 7000A, IP54, FORM4B, drawer or Stationary Type LV Panels.

-Siemens Sivacon S4 : IEC61439-1/2 Standards up to 4000A, IP54, FORM4B AG Panels.

-Siemens Alpha Universal : IEC61439-1/2 Standards up to 630A, IP54, Wall Mount and Standing Type LV Panels.

Our own brand OMG PANO also has type tests up to 5000A.

The features of our OMGPANO brand are briefly;

-OMGPANO:  IEC61439-1/2 Standards up to 5000A, IP54, FORM4B AG Panels.

Do you have any new product studies?

Yes, as OMG PANO, our work to establish our own panel system with our panel brand, which we have patented, continues at full speed. We have up to 5000A type test certificates for OMG PANO. The internal arc testing process of our panel is ongoing, and we will soon receive our three-axis seismic test certificate. We have been working to increase our exports for a long time, and there are requests from abroad to make panels with our own brand. We aim to present the experience we have gained in the sector to the sector again with OMG PANO.

In this sense, we will be different from our competitors; OMG PANO will only be produced in the Omega Enclosure factory and will not sell empty cabinets to other panel manufacturers. Thanks to the experience gained by Omega Pano over the years, it will be a panel system that is produced according to quality procedures and goes through the same processes and is competitive in price.

What is the biggest difference that distinguishes your products from their counterparts?

As a company, the satisfaction of our customers ranks first for us. In order to meet this, we are always with our customers and behind our products in terms of project and technical support while producing panels, and in case of need after our panels reach the field.

We have a production area of 7000m2 and we can say that we are the only company that installs only electrical panels of this size both in Turkey and in Europe.

We attach great importance to the fact that the panels we produce are error-free and of high quality. For this, we have a quality control and testing team of 12 people who are experts in their fields, who only test the panels. Due to the safety of our employees and our modern factory structure, our test areas and production areas are separate from each other.

In addition, one of these differences is our QR Code (QR) tag system. We have been applying the QR Code system as standard in each of our panels for 5 years. Thanks to this application, which we initiated as the first in the sector and has been one of our standards for 5 years, our customers can instantly access all the documents of their boards in the field by downloading a simple application to their phones thanks to the QR code reader.

As a company, we have a vision and capability that attaches great importance to digitalization, follows today's requirements and new developments in the world and quickly implements them. Thanks to this perspective, we continue to serve our customers in the most modern and high quality way.

What are the important points to be considered in the production of panels?

It is important to make product selection in accordance with the specification, and in some cases, even in the project, the faulty parts are noticed by the panel manufacturer and reported to the project owners. As a result, it is necessary to reach the right product that project owners need. We are one of the rare companies that can achieve this.

Occupational health and safety is an issue that needs to be considered in our sector. As Omega Pano, we prioritize producing user-friendly, secure panels.

As Omega Pano, what are the advantages you provide to project owners. How do you run the process when a project comes in?

Thanks to our expert technical team and 22 years of experience in this sector, we deliver the right solutions to the project owners in a quality and timely manner. Another advantage of ours is our quality technical service after sales. Omega Panel has proven itself with its electrical engineers, panel assembly experts and major projects carried out all over Turkey and abroad.

When the dashboard proposal we have prepared turns into work, we start by defining this project in our ERP and MRP system. Then, a project kick-off meeting is organized with the participation of the stakeholders related to the project and the actions they need to take in this project are conveyed to all units. After that, the assembly process begins. Our assembled panels are moved to the test area and all necessary tests are carried out in our test areas. After the approval of our quality control department, our logistics department makes the board ready for shipment.

What are the required type tests for the main distribution and secondary boards?

This issue may vary according to the project. But in general, the Type Test Certificate is a quality assurance criterion for panel manufacturers that guarantees that their boards are equipped with electrical devices, busbar systems, accessories that comply with the relevant standards and are structures installed according to the assembly instructions.

In the electrical panel market, the tests that are known as short circuit and temperature increase, which must be done close to 20 in total specific to the product, are called type tests. There is already a Type Test requirement for each type of product produced according to EN 61439-1 / 2 standard.

OMEGA Pano is involved in important projects abroad. How do you carry out your studies abroad?

As Omega Pano, we are a global supplier to international companies such as Siemens, GE and Alstom, Huawei.For this reason, our awareness in the world is increasing day by day. On the other hand, we also take part in global and sectoral magazines. We also participate in international fairs and have the opportunity to meet and work with many companies abroad that do not know us.

What kind of developments are taking place in the panel sector abroad? Can you make a comparison with our country in terms of the development of new technology?

As you know, the importance of maintaining a high level of efficiency and fast and flexible production in order to take part in today's global competitive environment has now reached a point where it is indisputable. Industry 4.0 (4. With the Industrial Revolution, we accelerated our work on this issue in order to be competitive.

If we evaluate our sector in general, the level of digital maturity is between Industry 2.0 and 3.0. However, concepts developed in this sense are now widely applied internationally in our sector. We believe that in order to maintain competitiveness in the changing market structure and to increase exports, automation, artificial intelligence, data analysis and management, measurement, follow-up design and customer relations methods that are widely used in the international arena and production facilities should be used effectively. For this reason, we attach importance to digitalization and try to implement it step by step.

Which regions or countries is production shifting to? Which products are more in demand?

At the moment, the most intense requests for proposals are coming from the Middle East. However, we receive requests from all over the world without being limited to this region only. We also receive requests for proposals from Asia, North and South America and convert them into jobs. This is a great source of pride for us.

Siemens Sivacon S8 panel is more in demand due to its features such as having all the certificates that our customers need, being designed on a software and not being left to the initiative of the employees who produce panels in any way during production and its indisputable quality.

OMEGA Pano is interested in social responsibility projects, especially vocational high schools. Can you tell us about these studies?

As Omega Pano, we contribute to the students taking one-to-one applied courses by opening classes in Industrial vocational high schools and to train qualified labor force for the needs of the sector. We have opened 3 classes in various Industrial Vocational High Schools so far. Here we provide students with the necessary technical equipment they need. Thus, we support the training of intermediate level technical personnel employees needed by the sector.

In addition, we provide professional awareness by inviting the students of the electrical department of universities and vocational high schools to our factory and organizing trainings on various subjects.

What are your future goals as OMEGA Pano?

First of all, we aim to increase our export rate to 80%. We want to be the production base of many international companies and we continue to work intensively for this.

In addition, we aim to make a difference in terms of quality and price competition by designing our own panel system with our OMG PANO brand.

With our work on digitalization in production, both domestically and globally, we combine our product and service quality and experience with our experiences, continue to provide maximum benefit to our customers and aim to serve more and more countries.
