In today's highly competitive and resource-conscious world, companies face the challenge of making their production processes both more efficient and more sustainable. IoT solutions offer an innovative approach to doing just that, helping companies maximize productivity while achieving their ESG goals.
IoT solutions: More than just digitization
The implementation of IoT technologies in production enables companies to optimize their processes holistically. Sensors, gateways and intelligent platforms collect data in real time and provide valuable insights into the status and performance of machines and systems.
A key benefit of IoT solutions is the ability to enable remote HMI (human-machine interface). Operators can monitor and control machines remotely, reducing downtime and ensuring quick responses to unforeseen problems. In addition, IoT-supported OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) monitoring provides precise analyses of plant efficiency, while AI-supported analyses facilitate the identification of bottlenecks and optimization potential.
Sustainability through ESG data collection
IoT technologies also play a crucial role with regard to environmental and sustainability goals. Companies can use IoT solutions to collect comprehensive ESG-relevant data, such as energy consumption or waste production. This data not only enables precise monitoring of sustainability performance, but also creates the basis for improvement measures and compliance with regulatory requirements.
Another plus point: IoT-supported OEE optimization allows resources to be used more efficiently, which both lowers production costs and reduces the ecological footprint.
Production optimization: An example from practice
A leading automotive supplier implemented IoT solutions from cap-on to increase the efficiency of its production lines. The cap-on IoT hub was used to collect and analyze real-time data on machine utilization, maintenance requirements and energy consumption. By linking this data with AI algorithms, the company was able to achieve a 15% increase in production and a significant reduction in energy losses. These measures not only helped to reduce costs, but also supported the company's ESG goals.
