The smart factory of the future
Much more than automated production
It is highly networked, intelligent, adaptable, customer-oriented and (energy)-efficient. The key to achieving many of these goals is data, which must be turned into valuable information, and thus into useful knowledge – securely, quickly, effectively and validly – creating transparency that enables new insights. These will allow you to uncover further optimisation potential for your smart factory, automatically generate fact-based recommendations for action, use data to streamline your production and ultimately to generate significant added value – a crucial foundation for the smart factory.
The ONCITE Digital Production System gives you a scalable product for digitalisation that has been specially developed for the manufacturing industry using the latest cloud and edge computing technologies – for the smart factory of the future.
