Advantages

Increased availability of machines and plants
-
Condition Monitoring allows preventive maintenance without unplanned outages, required spare parts can be planned and ordered in time
Better quality assurance up to the end user
- Automated quality assurance processes reduce erroneous deliveries
- Data acquisition and processing guarantee at any time traceability or optimized production processes


More efficient production in small quantities
-
Faster changeover times for new product versions, realized by sensors that receive their new identity/function through a main control
-
Increased efficiency through interdisciplinary communication, if e.g. information on capabilities is directly transferred to production planning.
-
Energy efficiency through better utilization and fewer rejects thanks to optimized production
