挑战
ReMASTER 压缩空气监控系统于 2015 年安装。该系统能够持续监控压缩空气系统参数，并将该信息传输到云服务器，Atlas Container 人员、工业诊断和 Sparks Dynamics 可以访问该服务器。这些信息被收集到一个数据库中，该数据库可以导出到 Excel 电子表格或使用 Sparks Dynamics ViewMaster 软件以图形方式显示。平均每年的压缩空气电费估计约为 116,000 美元。这是基于每千瓦时 0.091 美元的增量 / 千瓦时电费和估计的 1,279,200 千瓦时压缩空气能耗。压缩空气系统节能措施 (ECM) 的实施阶段包括： • 识别和修复压缩空气泄漏 • 了解每台制造机器的压缩空气使用情况，并在机器不再处于生产模式时安装截止阀 •识别压缩空气的误用，包括排气、文丘里管和冷却场景 • 了解系统压力要求和使用点压力调节的潜在安装。

IoT Data Analytics Case Study - Packaging Films Manufacturer
The company manufactures packaging films on made to order or configure to order basis. Every order has a different set of requirements from the product characteristics perspective and hence requires machine’s settings to be adjusted accordingly. If the film quality does not meet the required standards, the degraded quality impacts customer delivery causes customer dissatisfaction and results in lower margins. The biggest challenge was to identify the real root cause and devise a remedy for that.

Zenon the Ideal Basis for An Ergonomic HMI
KHS develops and produces machines and equipment for filling and packaging in the drinks industry. Because drinks manufacturing, filling and packaging consist of a number of highly complex processes, the user-friendly and intuitive operation of equipment is increasingly gaining in significance. In order to design these processes as simple as possible for the user, KHS decided to introduce a uniform, transparent and standardized solution to the company. The HMI interface should meet the requirement for people with different qualifications and enable them to work on a standard platform.

Automated Pallet Labeling Solution for SPR Packaging
SPR Packaging, an American supplier of packaging solutions, was in search of an automated pallet labeling solution that could meet their immediate and future needs. They aimed to equip their lines with automatic printer applicators, but also required a solution that could interface with their accounting software. The challenge was to find a system that could read a 2D code on pallets at the stretch wrapper, track the pallet, and flag any pallets with unread barcodes for inspection. The pallets could be single or double stacked, and the system needed to be able to differentiate between the two. SPR Packaging sought a system integrator with extensive experience in advanced printing and tracking solutions to provide a complete traceability system.

Mondi Implements Statistics-Based Health Monitoring and Predictive Maintenance
The extrusion and other machines at Mondi’s plant are large and complex, measuring up to 50 meters long and 15 meters high. Each machine is controlled by up to five programmable logic controllers (PLCs), which log temperature, pressure, velocity, and other performance parameters from the machine’s sensors. Each machine records 300–400 parameter values every minute, generating 7 gigabytes of data daily.Mondi faced several challenges in using this data for predictive maintenance. First, the plant personnel had limited experience with statistical analysis and machine learning. They needed to evaluate a variety of machine learning approaches to identify which produced the most accurate results for their data. They also needed to develop an application that presented the results clearly and immediately to machine operators. Lastly, they needed to package this application for continuous use in a production environment.

Industry 4.0 at ALPLA: Enhancing Factory Efficiency with IoT
ALPLA, a global leader in packaging solutions, faced several challenges as the complexity of their production machinery increased. The need for highly trained specialists in each factory led to higher personnel costs, difficulties in recruiting experienced talent at each location, and costly personnel turnover. Furthermore, less experienced operators running the machines sub-optimally impacted resource consumption and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). ALPLA also faced the challenge of monitoring visual inspection systems in every line of their plants, which was almost impossible to do manually. In 2016, ALPLA decided to use data from the 900 different types of embedded sensors in each factory to address these issues. However, their initial choice of SQL Server as the data store for the sensor data proved inadequate, as it was unable to cope with their data requirements.

Closer To Becoming world's Most Digitized Bottling Operation
While digitization is increasing efficiency and significantly growing customer engagement, it also comes with several challenges, not least being the growing risk of cyberattacks.This led the company’s Australian, Pacific and Indonesian operations (CCEP API) to create a three-year roadmap for developing and implementing enhanced security measures. A key element of the plan has been to improve existing privileged access management processes and gain heightened oversight and control over the use of elevated credentials.
