Electrical and industrial control components from Eaton will provide easy connection, based on the OPC UA standard, to T-Systems' multi-IoT platform. The multi-IoT platform is hosted and operated in
This will enable machine builders to monitor and carry out predictive maintenance of complete systems directly from the Cloud, as well as optimising control of wear and tear, operating costs and productivity of the machinery by using intelligent data analysis.
The new IoT solutions provide manufacturers with the analysis capabilities of extensive machine data throughout the entire life cycle of one or more machines, irrespective of their location, vast and diverse possibilities for productivity and efficiency gains have been opened up.
Together with pilot customers, the companies are developing IoT service packages that address different use cases based on live data from ongoing production. These will enable machine builders to better manage their operations, said the companies.
