Smart Manufacturing
Flexible, reliable and predictive with IoT
CHALLENGES
CNet has invested into several research and innovation activities in this area. We have focused on enabling a business based Internet of Things by integrating data from various sensor technologies and convert it into a form that can be processed by the manufacturing execution system.
In the Brazilian project BEMO-COFRA we developed OPC support to allow easy integration of OPC-based manufacturing equipment into IoT networks, which was tested in FIATs factories in Brazil.
Also an SDK and toolkit for Industrial IoT developers have been developed.
We have also developed a system for collection and processing of shop floor data and aggregate it from robot to cells to lines and to factory level to provide easy access to production data from equipment and sensors and provide aggregation and drill down to every level of detail necessary to support different business processes. The solution was fully deployed in an MS Azure cloud.
