Industrial Digitalization - Smart factories

Preparation for a smart factory

Necessities:

  • Infrastructure: scalable network and hardware platform

  • Smart Instrumentation: smart integration concept

  • Control Systems: reliability, connectivity

  • Data Collection/Data Storage: datacenter vs. local storage

  • Accessibility of all information: interfaces for further processing

  • Monitoring: alarming, evaluation & reporting

  • Utilization of models: the digital twin concept


Data storage can no longer take place locally at several locations. A central storage, open interfaces (safe, of course)  must be available for subsequent processors.
