DTE, a leader in real-time process intelligence for the global aluminum industry, has signed a teaming agreement with Ramboll, a global engineering and consulting company with unique capabilities in integrating technology into the aluminum industry. This collaboration is set to enhance process control capabilities for aluminum producers by integrating DTE’s Molten Metal Analyzers with Ramboll’s expertise in industrial automation and equipment integration.

By working together, DTE and Ramboll will offer a complete solution for real-time chemical composition analysis, allowing aluminum producers to optimize their processes with precise, in-situ data. DTE’s proprietary LP-LIBS™ technology provides reference-grade elemental analysis directly from molten metal, replacing slow, costly, and manual sampling methods. Ramboll’s deep knowledge of process engineering, robotics, and field services ensures seamless integration into industrial environments.

“This partnership marks a significant step forward in enabling aluminum producers to achieve greater efficiency and sustainability,” said Jakob Ásmundsson, CEO of DTE. “Our work with Ramboll will see our technology integrated into industrial processes, allowing manufacturers to make faster, data-driven decisions that optimize operations and reduce waste.”

“We are excited to partner with DTE to bring next-generation metal analysis capabilities to the industry,” said Taylor Rector, Ramboll Senior Business Development Manager. “Our combined expertise allows us to offer a truly integrated solution that helps aluminum producers enhance their manufacturing processes, improve quality, and support sustainability goals.”

Since its founding in 2013, DTE has been at the forefront of digital transformation in the aluminum industry, making production safer, more cost-efficient, and less energy-intensive. Using its proprietary Liquid-Phase Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LP-LIBS™) technology, DTE delivers real-time chemical analysis of molten metal, enabling producers to optimize energy use, improve scrap utilization, and enhance safety through automated sampling.

For DTE, this collaboration marks a significant milestone in its expansion strategy, confirming the growing demand for real-time process control solutions in the aluminum sector. By partnering with Ramboll, DTE is poised to scale its technology more efficiently, ensuring seamless adoption across industrial clients.
