Intelligent manufacturing Production flexibility
for optimal workflows

Deliver the right data to the right people at the right time to make actionable decisions ahead of time

Flexible manufacturing systems

Flexible manufacturing systems let you shift workflows effortlessly

Enhance your ability to be proactive with the variables you need to consider in your day-to-day operations. And connect your manufacturing components to meet customer demands, eliminate potential failure points and increase or adjust production system productivity without incurring excessive costs and resources.

Many companies face challenges in tracking parts across their factory or from one facility to another thus driving increased costs, labor and inaccuracies along the way. Lack of visibility to inventory, points of failure, etc. results in product shortages and missed production cycles. Through Industry 4.0 connectivity, automation, fast information exchange and analytics, a new dimension of flexibility can be reached, and new approaches to planning and controlling production systems can be designed.

The outputs of a Smart Factory on manufacturing:

  • Enhanced Productivity

    – reduce production time, enable better asset utilization, and inventory management with higher levels of automation
  • Enhanced Flexibility

    – execute the production steps for a large, or small number of products
  • Enhanced Quality

    – monitor current production in real-time and quickly intervene in case of errors via smart sensors

What production flexibility can do for you:

Move away from Excel spreadsheets and other manual processes to automated solutions to better optimize the planning and scheduling of building a product. Bolster the continuity of operations — even with skeletal crews — with automated equipment-monitoring and process systems. Reduce cycle times and higher yield, quality, energy and throughout process industries where process parameters must be constantly monitored and optimized. And maximize operating equipment and process parameters to increase overall equipment efficiency. You can accomplish all of this, and production flexibility helps you get there.

Flexibility within production requires visibility into the production floor. Our solutions provide these insights by being the data collection and integration tools that help you make better production decisions in real time.

IT/OT Convergence 101

Bridging the gap between physical and digital capabilities in manufacturing environments creates a significant competitive advantage. This convergence will displace companies that don’t embrace it, but many are behind. While there are challenges that must be overcome to bring the two together, the risk of not doing so is quite real—especially when competitors are making the leap.
