Networking and the ever expanding reach of IoT data collection are becoming more and more important when designing modern and future-oriented production facilities. When analyzed efficiently, the resulting data pools contain enormous potential in lowering your operating costs and consequently in increasing your competitive edge. This requires a natural interaction between man and machine, which is the essential underlying philosophy. We offer proven solutions engineered to work harmoniously with one another for every kind of industrial communication application. Our portfolio of products and services helps you address industry-specific challenges from the OT to the cloud.
Challenges in planning modern communication networks
Reliability
Problems with communication components often result in machine downtimes and thus expensive production downtimes for your customers. Trust Hilscher as your partner. Our products have a proven track record across several different industries in communicating reliably for decades. Use our technology even in the planning stages to reduce your end customers' operational costs caused by unplanned downtimes.
Remote Management
Die manuelle Überwachung und Verwaltung automatisierter Systeme vor Ort ist zeitintensiv und teuer. Unser netFIELD-Ökosystem bietet Ihnen ein breites Produkt- und Software-Portfolio, um IoT-Projekte in Anlagen aus der Ferne zu überwachen und zu verwalten. So behalten Sie die Anlageneffizienz bereits während der Planung im Fokus und verschaffen sich einen technologischen Vorteil gegenüber klassisch und lokal überwachten Lösungen.
Individuelle IoT-Applikationen
Individuell geplante Produktionsanlagen brauchen spezifische IoT-Applikationen zur Prozessanalyse und -optimierung. In unserer netFIELD-Cloud finden Sie zahlreiche Service-Anwendungen wie das Remote-Device- und Container-Management. Auf deren Basis entwickeln Sie oder Ihre Kunden spezifische containerbasierte Applikationen und deployen diese von zentraler Stelle direkt auf die Edge Devices rund um den Globus.
