E3 Magazine Cover Story November
Digitization, automation and orchestration are the drivers for further value creation in industry. The term Industry 4.0, which is primarily used in the German-speaking world, does not go far enough because it is understood to mean only a digital transformation. This E3 cover story in collaboration with Orbis clearly shows that industrial digitization also encompasses business management, organization and technology. It starts with return on investment, continues with security and resilience, and extends to the digital twin. Only holistic approaches guarantee sustainable value creation.
The advantages of Sensor-Intelligence Devices (SID)
Edge computing: Real-time, energy-optimized sensor intelligence devices (SID), such as those developed by the Fraunhofer Center for Sensor Intelligence ZSI, act as an intermediate or meta-level between operational technology (OT) at the machine level and IT systems at the business level: for example, a manufacturing execution system (MES), an IoT platform, or an ERP.
NETZSCH implements uniform and interoperable store floor platform
The NETZSCH Group also wants to secure its success in the future through a digitization strategy. Completely digitalized processes in production are an important component of this. The Pumps & Systems division has set the course for this with a future-oriented, uniform and interoperable store floor platform that combines applications from SAP and ORBIS MES with the Microsoft Azure Cloud.
Leveraging savings potential in production with ORBIS DSP
In the future, Oerlikon Balzers will use the ORBIS Distributed Shopfloor Processing (ORBIS DSP) solution to establish interoperability between technical data and processes on the production level, the IOT platform and IT systems on the business level such as ORBIS MES and SAP ERP.
Borne chooses ORBIS DSP: Interoperability and Production Optimization with Digital Twin
