An IoT Gateway serves as a bridge that enables communication within the Internet of Things, typically facilitating device-to-device communications or device-to-cloud communications. Essentially, it acts as a conduit that links various data origins and endpoints. Our gateway solution acts as the foundation of Industry 4.0, it connects the otherwise isolated machines and devices to the broader digital world. This paves the way to more advanced and innovative management systems.

Edge Computing
‘Edge computing’ has gained prominence over the last couple of years, and it simply means the ability of a system or broader application to process data generated near its source. This approach guarantees that vital insights from the collected data are preserved and conveyed in near real-time to stakeholders who might benefit from the information and act on it. Our edge computing solutions are tailor-made to your unique production requirements, delivering enhancement in ways you’ve envisioned.

Recipe Management System
(RMS)
A batch recipe management system is an innovative solution designed to streamline and optimize the production processes in various manufacturing industries. This system is particularly prevalent in sectors such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, chemicals, and cosmetics, where precise formulations and consistent quality are paramount. The system ensures that each batch produced adheres to a specific set of instructions or recipes, which detail the exact quantity and sequence of ingredients, along with the necessary processing parameters.
Our web-based Recipe Management System provides our clients with a standardized approach to managing and maintaining production recipes. This centralized recipe data management system consolidates storage of recipes, allowing it to be accessible throughout the production process. It monitors different recipe versions, simplifying the process of reverting to older versions or updating recipes systematically. Our RMS seamlessly interfaces with shop floor equipment such as PLCs or DCSs, to ensure recipes are automatically executed as defined with minimal errors.

Overall Equipment Effectiveness
(OEE)
OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) is the gold standard for measuring manufacturing productivity. Simply put – it identifies the percentage of manufacturing time that is truly productive. By diving deeper into the values represented in an OEE, it opens the gateway to allowing businesses to achieve significant performance gains in their manufacturing facilities.
In order to derive significant OEE metrics, data across the production floor must be captured and analysed. We support our clients from the initial stages of data gathering to creating an OEE dashboard. Our solution includes facilitating communication across devices and transforming data into readily accessible OPC UA standards. Information such as machine uptime, output count, and machine status monitoring are obtained directly from shop floor machineries and controllers. These data are then analysed and presented as an OEE dashboard, providing a clearer visualization of plant efficiency. Additionally, we support facilitation of data to external systems via OPC UA protocol or REST API.

Waste Tracking System
(WTS)
In an era where environmental concerns are paramount and corporate social responsibility has become a non-negotiable aspect of doing business, sustainability and environmental impact has become a core concern for businesses. Central to the quest for sustainability is the proper handling of waste—a critical yet often overlooked component. Globally, waste management laws are being strictly implemented, requiring the appropriate management of different kinds of waste. Non-compliance with these regulations may lead to hefty fines and operational constraints. Therefore, implementation of digital systems to track and monitor waste helps streamline the processes related to reporting and auditing, making compliance easier for companies.
Our waste management system tracks different waste types throughout their lifecycle. The waste tracking system utilizes digital waste transfer orders to facilitate the movement of waste from production through storage to disposal, ensuring each step is properly managed. Coupled with label creation and barcode scanning capabilities, WTS efficiently tracks the movement and location of waste. Additionally, reports allow management to oversee waste inventory, any loss of waste materials, and the overall waste generation by each process.

Digital Reporting
Digital reporting in manufacturing is a transformative approach that leverages technology to streamline data collection, analysis, and dissemination processes. By integrating digital tools into their reporting systems, manufacturers can enhance operational efficiency, improve decision-making, and deliver superior value to customers. This process involves the automated tracking of various operational parameters, including production output, machine performance, quality control metrics, and supply chain operations.
We pave the roadmap for our customers in identifying methods to gather crucial data from their current systems, strategies to efficiently store this data to support future expansion, and intricately design reports that ensure important information is readily accessible when needed. An effective report should prioritize having user-friendly dashboards, real-time data access, scalability, and integration capability.

Track and Trace System
(T&T)
Track and trace systems in manufacturing are critical components of supply chain management, quality assurance, and regulatory compliance. These systems employ a combination of technologies to monitor the production, movement, and storage of goods from origin to destination. By providing visibility into the product lifecycle and supply chain, track and trace systems help organizations enhance operational efficiency, ensure product quality and safety, and improve customer satisfaction.
Our track and trace solution utilizes unique identifiers such as barcode, RFID, or serial numbers tied to each product or component. Along the processing line, data pertinent to material movement and processing are collected and associated with these unique identifiers. Effectively, manufacturers are able to trace product genealogy information through transformed tracked data. These data are then presented in an intuitive dashboard or structured reports, allowing operators to search relevant data when required.

Quality Management System
(QMS)
Quality Management Systems (QMS) ensure manufacturing compliancy with corporate and industry regulations. The capability of the system to monitor real-time process facilitates the implementation of quality program like Lean and Six Sigma. QMS helps in preventing undesirable incidents and consistently enhances product quality through a closed-loop approach. It can be readily integrated as a predicative measure in unified systems, making the system capable of forecasting off spec possibilities within production floor.
Our QMS solution helps customers set up a standardized framework for approaching the manufacturing process. The system enforces step-by-step workflow structure to ensure consistent operating procedures. Through an integrated quality assessment approach, our QMS system allows for quick detection, containment, risk assessment, corrective action, and preventive measures to be taken when required.

Central Monitoring System
(CMS)
A CMS should have the capability to monitor and manage all of your critical points and environmental parameters such as: temperature, relative humidity, CO2, O2, differential pressure, etc., in a single place. CMS software stores the measured data and gives you the capability to view trends, customize alarms, and view reports with graphs and statistical calculations. In simple terms, a CMS should allow the user to monitor, control, manage, and respond through situational awareness.
