IoT For Steel Wheel Plants
Cycle Time Improvement
Client Summary :
IoT system is used for Condition Based
Monitoring of Machines producing Steel
wheels for both Truck and Passenger card
segments.Monitoring parameters of machine live on the-go helped customer to know health of machine. Condition based monitoring of machine given the alert to user about the when the maintenance of machine needs to carry out. This has helped significantly in improving downtime of machine. Customer was able to avoid the major breakdown which may occur in future hence this IoT system helped to save cost.
OEE monitoring helped customer to prepare the production planning and monitoring. Reports made the shop floor work paperless and moving truly towards digitization.
Industry :
- OEM for Steel wheel manufacturing
Challenges :
- Data Integration and Legacy Systems: Interfacing with different types of
controller was challenge the customer were facing. We developed software which can read data from existing controller and shown live data
without additional of extra hardware. - Security and Privacy: Application needed to be safe from vulnerability and Cyber attacks
IoT System Includes :
- Key Parameter Indicators(KPI)
- OEE/Production monitoring dashboards
- Trends facility
- Reports
- Machines alerts/notification over Mobile
