Construction machinery manufacturer accelerates industrial digitalization through a central data infrastructure
By establishing a foundational data infrastructure, the manufacturing customer is achieving a drastic reduction in time-to-value for digital manufacturing projects. By decoupling machine connectivity from the application level, complex industrial use cases can be rolled out and scaled globally 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 to optimize operational excellence Seamless acquisition and normalization of energy, status, and error monitoring data across 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 the 89 planned use cases at the manufacturing customer would mathematically take 39 years. This enormous time hurdle not only blocks technological progress but also prevents the timely realization of efficiency potentials in production.
A universal connectivity layer as an accelerator
The customer uses Cybus Connectware 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. This encapsulates the technical complexity of data extraction, allowing the IT team to focus fully on the development and rollout of value-adding applications.
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, Liebherr achieves immediate business value and creates the basis for data-driven decisions in real-time. The transparency gained regarding asset status increases overall equipment effectiveness and secures Liebherr a leading position in the field of intelligent heavy machinery manufacturing.
