Proven IIoT use cases for Worker Safety in companies

IIoT takes safety standards to a new level. From monitoring hazardous machinery to preventing accidents in warehouses – our platform showcases proven approaches that protect employees and make the work environment safer.

Gas and pollutant detection

With IoT sensors, companies monitor air quality and pollutant levels. An example is Indoor Air Quality Management using LoRaWAN® solutions, which reduce aerosol spread in enclosed spaces like gyms or retail environments and minimize infection risks.

Fall detection

Wearable devices detect falls in real time and trigger automatic emergency protocols. This is particularly effective in industrial or isolated work environments where rapid assistance is critical.

Identifying Hazards

Smart sensors identify potential risks in work environments such as chemical plants or manufacturing areas. This enables companies to take preventive measures before accidents occur.

Immediate Emergency Communication

Connected communication systems enable rapid alerts and targeted instructions for employees and emergency teams. This reduces response times in critical situations.

Evacuation Support

IoT-supported evacuation systems calculate the safest routes in real time and guide employees safely out of hazardous areas. This minimizes chaos and maximizes safety in emergencies.>

How do you successfully implement Worker Safety?

Are you planning to make your workplaces safer and minimize risks at an early stage? Or have you already taken the first steps but are facing the challenge of integrating the right technologies and approaches? Worker safety requires a coordinated interplay of modern technologies, reliable data analysis and tried-and-tested approaches. Our experienced network supports you in finding the best solutions and partners for your individual requirements – efficiently, without obligation and precisely tailored to your goals.

Data Acquisition

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.

Data Transmission

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.

Device Management

Efficient device management for IIoT devices enables companies in our community to centrally manage the entire life cycle, including automated updates and certificate management. Our partners are working on solutions to reduce operating costs through automation, minimize downtimes and achieve high efficiency through scalable solutions and optimized interfaces.

Data Integration

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)

Data Standard (Communication)

Many companies do not have standardized access to machine and device data right through to their IT systems. Standards such as OPC UA, LoRaWAN and mioty enable seamless integration from the edge to the cloud. OPC UA, for example, connects OT and IT by transferring data via edge gateways to cloud services such as Azure Event Hubs or Kafka and tools such as Grafana or Power BI. Our partners ensure that these standards can be used efficiently.

Data Standard (Master Data)

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.

Data Visualization

The visualization of IoT data makes it possible to display complex information such as alarm trends, golden batch or process dashboards in intuitive reports. Customizable dashboards on standard tools help to analyze real-time data, identify trends and make informed decisions. Low-code solutions are also available.

Data Analysis and Evaluation

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.

Data Security

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.

Services

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.
