Industrial IoT Solutions

Digitalization is not an end in itself

Acquire, understand, and utilize data with Industrial IoT solutions

Many companies already have basic knowledge of Industrial IoT applications, however they often lack the know-how to implement them independently. Therefore, data is initially acquired and stored, but often it is not used further for a specific purpose. However, specific, measurable value is first achieved from the collected data through logical linking and evaluation. The opportunities brought about by Industrial IoT can be used in many different and individual ways.

Get into the Industrial IoT and beyond

Digitalization is not an end in itself. Big data, cloud, artificial intelligence - these are all words that are often used as buzzwords in this context. But what really matters is what digitalization actually does for the customer. Dr. Björn Six gives answers

Weidmüller helps industrial companies discover the individual potential of Industrial IoT applications, develop needs-based solutions and successfully integrate them in existing structures. For example, for the location-independent commissioning of machines, to improve the overall effectiveness of plants (OEE) or to generate automated reports on energy consumption.

How do you want to benefit from Industrial IoT

We explain the application fields

Essentially, there is a distinction between greenfield and brownfield projects. In greenfield projects, this involves constructing a completely digitalised machine/plant. In brownfield projects the plant/machine fleet is not yet compatible with Industrial IoT. The latter currently applies to the majority of the installed base. Therefore, digital retrofitting of machines and plant is nowadays of fundamental importance. No interventions are carried out on the installed automation technology, instead parallel structures are built up. The overview below shows a number of use cases, which can be implemented in either a brownfield or a greenfield environment.
