Industry 4.0
"Smart Factory? Of course... but how?"
The question of whether a consistent transformation of processes is necessary in the sense of a smart factory is no longer relevant. The only crucial question is HOW.
Digital Twin
IndustryView SF creates a digital twin for each of your machines and connects it to the existing controls and peripheral information systems of the production plant.
Digital twins make it possible for machines, tools, products, materials, and all other participants in the value chain to become more intelligent than their physical counterparts.
The status information and analog measurement values of the physical machine and its digital twin are exactly identical.
100
machines
100 control systems
In a smart factory, every machine, tool, material, and product controls itself autonomously. The digital twins in IndustryView SF make this possible. This allows each participant in the value chain to work with its own algorithms, individually tailored to its characteristics, nature, and requirements.
IndustryView SF offers you all the possibilities to build decentralized control systems for your Smart Factory with its integrated workflow system.
Old and
Communicative
Even older machines can communicate, albeit not digitally. The good news is that you can still integrate the most important data digitally by retrofitting simple sensors and fieldbus controllers.
Smart Factory
vs.
ERP and MES
ERP and MES are centrally organized software systems that offer little – in most cases no – support for individual control algorithms. Therefore, they are unsuitable for implementing your Smart Factory.
Smart Factory and Industry 4.0 rely on decentralized control. Machine, tool, material, and product control themselves. IndustryView SF fulfills this requirement through digital twins.
