Central data infrastructures accelerate industrial digitalization through drastically reduced time-to-value
The establishment of a foundational data infrastructure realizes a significant acceleration of digital manufacturing projects in mechanical engineering. Through the consistent decoupling of machine connectivity and the application level, complex industrial use cases can be rolled out globally and scaled to hundreds of assets in a fraction of the time previously required.
Performance metrics
Complete implementation of the basic infrastructure as well as three productive use cases within just three months Massive reduction of the calculated implementation timeframe for the entire digitalization roadmap from decades to a few years Establishment of real-time transparency regarding global asset status for the sustainable optimization of operational excellence Seamless acquisition and normalization of energy, status, and error monitoring data across highly heterogeneous machine fleets

Use case in detail
Decades of innovation backlog due to lack of standardization
In the heavy machinery industry, companies face the challenge that the individual integration of digital use cases is extremely resource-intensive. Without a central platform, the implementation of a comprehensive roadmap of nearly 90 use cases would mathematically take several decades. This enormous time hurdle not only blocks technological progress but also prevents the timely realization of critical efficiency potentials and leads to isolated data silos in production.
A universal connectivity layer as a technological accelerator
A specialized Connectware serves as a central hub to capture real-time data directly from the shop floor and make it available for higher-level systems. The solution acts as a standardized interface that harmonizes energy, status, and error monitoring data and converts it into a uniform format. This completely encapsulates the technical complexity of data extraction, allowing IT teams to focus fully on the development and rollout of value-adding applications instead of losing time with individual drivers.
Drastic reduction in time-to-value for the Smart Factory
The transition to a platform-centric strategy radically transforms the speed of digital transformation. Through the drastically shortened implementation time, immediate business value is achieved and the basis for data-driven decisions in real-time is created. The transparency gained regarding global asset status massively increases overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) and secures industrial companies a leading market position in the field of intelligent heavy machinery manufacturing.
