A highly automated factory in which a robotic arm with a digital interface works in a futuristic environment.

Industry 4.0: connected, forward-looking, adaptable

Intelligent systems. Real-time data. Efficiency that can be measured

Production companies are under enormous pressure: inefficiency, rising costs and a shortage of skilled workers are putting a strain on success. Nevertheless, performance and quality must be right. Industry 4.0 technologies promise a remedy: machines are networked in a meaningful way. Production systems react flexibly, control themselves and provide consistent real-time data across the entire product life cycle. Automated analyses, intelligent control and predictive maintenance reduce downtime and errors - and measurably increase productivity and quality.

We bring people, production and technology together.

Whether you have an established or planned IT landscape, we advise and support you in the use of technology in a holistic and cooperative manner. Our solutions are well thought-out and focused on the essentials.

The starting point: a well-founded analysis of your production processes. From this, we develop a viable strategy with a clear roadmap. Implementation takes place consistently in line with production reality. We develop solutions tailored to your requirements, integrate them and ensure smooth operation. Even after the rollout, we are there for you with monitoring, maintenance and further development.

Siemens: AI demand prediction platform for industrial production planning

Siemens is looking to the future with the AI Demand Prediction Platform. Thanks to machine learning and AutoML, precise demand forecasts can be created for over 100 products and production can be better planned. Launched as a proof of concept, the platform quickly developed into a system that can be used productively. The self-service web application will soon be used in other plants.
