The Challenge

Building control systems have traditionally managed heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) separately from other systems. Siemens Industry, Inc., envisioned a greater sophistication: Why not build a control system that would co-ordinate all these variables, as well as monitor building humidity, fire alarms, door locks, security, lighting and other building features, all while collecting historical data and storing network configuration information?

The Customer

Siemens

About The Customer

Siemens AG is a German conglomerate company headquartered in Berlin and Munich and the largest industrial manufacturing company in Europe with branch offices abroad.

The Solution

Siemens selected Objectivity because of the technology's capability to store the network configuration information, collect historical information, and connect the data collected among a number of various sensors to a controlling terminal.

Historical information (temperature, humidity, etc.) is of particular importance for Siemen's regulated customers such as pharmaceutical manufacturers, hospitals and food processing plants, etc. Objectivity's technology enables the complex processing of highly inter-related data for greater flexibility, accessibility, and control.

Data Collected

Humidity, HVAC ( heating, ventilation, air conditioning), Lighting, Security and access, Temperature

Smart Water Filtration Systems

Before working with Ayla Networks, Ozner was already using cloud connectivity to identify and solve water-filtration system malfunctions as well as to monitor filter cartridges for replacements.But, in June 2015, Ozner executives talked with Ayla about how the company might further improve its water systems with IoT technology. They liked what they heard from Ayla, but the executives needed to be sure that Ayla’s Agile IoT Platform provided the security and reliability Ozner required.

In view of growing competition, Gämmerler had a strong need to remain competitive via process optimization, reliability and gentle handling of printed products, even at highest press speeds. In addition, a digitalization initiative also included developing a key differentiation via data-driven services offers.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers

For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.

Premium Appliance Producer Innovates with Internet of Everything

Sub-Zero faced the largest product launch in the company’s history:It wanted to launch 60 new products as scheduled while simultaneously opening a new “greenfield” production facility, yet still adhering to stringent quality requirements and manage issues from new supply-chain partners. A the same time, it wanted to increase staff productivity time and collaboration while reducing travel and costs.

Integration of PLC with IoT for Bosch Rexroth

The application arises from the need to monitor and anticipate the problems of one or more machines managed by a PLC. These problems, often resulting from the accumulation over time of small discrepancies, require, when they occur, ex post technical operations maintenance.

Robot Saves Money and Time for US Custom Molding Company

Injection Technology (Itech) is a custom molder for a variety of clients that require precision plastic parts for such products as electric meter covers, dental appliance cases and spools. With 95 employees operating 23 molding machines in a 30,000 square foot plant, Itech wanted to reduce man hours and increase efficiency.
