Enabling factory digitalization

Advantech will take part in the next SPS IPC Drives Italia, showcasing the latest Industrial IoT (IIoT) solutions and Solution Ready Platform (SRP) Technologies, which were designed to help manufacturing companies take a step forward towards Industry 4.0. The aim is to making them smarter and more efficient. Advantech’s ECO Partners and Solution Alliance Partners will be present at the booth and will demonstrate a fully OT to Cloud integrated Software engineering environment including a full range of hardware devices from wireless and wired sensor connectivity, Fieldbus and Ethernet based connectivity devices, programmable controllers, edge computing devices, gateways, servers and storage systems including system-level expertise. The solutions that will be shown during the 3-day event will provide highly integrated, and system cost optimized Solution Ready Platforms (SRP) for the Industrial IOT Market. Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is an approach for monitoring and managing the lifecycle of manufacturing assets and is a metric for measuring and monitoring how efficient manufacturing processes are. Concepts like Overall Efficiency Effectiveness and Energy Management Systems will be driving the smart manufacturing companies to trace the quality of their environments and production flow from raw material to finish goods, avoiding lines downtime, reducing production gaps, letting customizations be easier and faster, optimizing plant energy efficiency.
