Solution Examples > Digital Documentation
Find out how companies from our network are implementing digital documentation with IIoT. Our use cases show how companies can save time and minimize errors through automated data acquisition and seamless integration of documentation systems.
With IIoT, Digital Documentation becomes a strategic advantage. Our platform showcases use cases that improve information access, replace manual processes, and save costs – successfully implemented in practice.
Automated generation of reports and logs for audits and compliance requirements. Digital systems enable seamless traceability and ensure efficiency in audit processes.
Machines and products are equipped with digital nameplates containing essential information such as maintenance intervals or material compositions. This supports sustainability and recycling through digital product passports.
By monitoring vibrations, companies can detect irregularities such as bearing defects or mechanical damage at an early stage. This prevents unplanned downtime, increases equipment availability, and optimizes overall production performance.
Production steps and quality controls are documented digitally, eliminating the need for paper-based logs. This improves accuracy and saves time in analysis and traceability.
Providers from our network whose IoT and IIoT solutions have been tried and tested in practice.
Do you want to optimize your digital documentation with the right technologies or are you facing the challenge of efficiently integrating existing systems? But you don’t have an overview of the best tools and approaches to improve your processes sustainably?
Digital Documentation requires a well-coordinated interplay of data management systems, analytics platforms, and modern technologies to ensure transparency and efficiency in your processes. With our network, we support you in finding the right solutions and partners for your specific requirements – quickly, technologically sound, and tailored to your needs.
The basis of every IoT and IIoT project lies in data acquisition and pre-processing (EDGE). The data from the field and control level can be transmitted either directly by wire or wirelessly. Operational parameters such as temperature, pressure, force, or production data in real time are captured – and made available for any use case.
A seamless transfer of captured data is essential. Many companies combine wireless and wired solutions depending on the use case – for secure data transmission to the cloud or locally. Suitable networks for distance, data load and environments as well as high security standards are crucial in order to avoid downtimes.
Data only becomes valuable when it is seamlessly integrated into existing IT and OT systems. A strong connection between machine level, MES, ERP systems and other business solutions enables efficient processes and consolidated insights. Keywords: Data Warehousing, Data Lake and Database (storage)
Master data for products and services is often not uniformly classified and is available in data silos. When implementing use cases such as traceability, digital type plates, the digital product passport (DPP) or the product carbon footprint, this leads to high costs in data engineering due to duplication of work and inefficient processing. Uniform data formats, standardized product descriptions and technical concepts such as the Asset Administration Shell (AAS) are therefore crucial.
IoT/IIoT data analysis provides real-time insights into processes through, for example, data event-driven apps, real-time analytics, and root cause analytics. Tools such as MVDA, OEE, process KPIs and Predictive Maintenance can be used to identify anomalies and optimize processes. Low-code solutions also facilitate rapid implementation.
Protection against unauthorized access, theft or manipulation is an issue for every company in our network. Our partners are working on solutions for the optimal use of digital identities and encryption technologies for secure access and communication of your devices, machines and systems.
The services of our partners support companies from our network in the implementation and optimization of IoT solutions. This includes consulting, individual customization, training and technical support. The aim is to make processes more efficient, integrate systems seamlessly and derive maximum benefit from IoT/IIoT data.
Imagine all your critical information being digitally available and accessible at any time – powered by IIoT-enabled documentation systems.
