Schuler
German Edge Cloud (GEC) is cooperating with Schuler, a machine and plant building company. In this context, Schuler is offering a track-and-trace solution for press plants within the Digital Suite, based on technology from German Edge Cloud. The Schuler Digital Suite with the “track-and-trace application powered by GEC” is being used, among other things, in the Smart Press Shop, a joint venture between Schuler and Porsche.
„With our data-driven press shop and the associated Schuler Digital Suite track-and-trace system, we are responding to our customers’ call for easy-to-use total solutions,” explains Domenico Iacovelli, the Schuler Group’s CEO. As a companion on the path to digitalisation, the company is thus ensuring complete transparency in production: “In the event of any product recalls, for example, the entire supply chain can be traced – without any gaps – and the cause of the fault can be quickly identified.“

Koller
Koller Kunststofftechnik GmbH, which specializes in the production of injection-molded parts for the automotive industry, successfully implemented a digitization project with GEC in just one month. The results: comprehensive transparency and real-time data availability. The company now has a clear overview of its production processes and energy consumption. Errors can now be identified more quickly and easily, and optimization potential is visible.
Just a few days after implementing these solutions, Koller Kunststofftechnik already saw significant effects. Thanks to the newly gained production transparency, managers quickly had access to several visualizations that provided a crucial 360-degree view of the production processes. The ability to capture data in near real-time and analyze it in detail enables Koller Kunststofftechnik to make fact-based decisions and take proactive measures to optimize production processes. This comprehensive view creates the basis for further use cases that can be implemented in the future.
