SUCCESSFUL USE CASE

Greatly Improved Productivity in Automotive Parts Manufacturing

In the automotive parts industry, highly automated production lines are prevalent. In this specific case, a well-known automotive parts manufacturer sought assistance from Advantech iFactory to optimize their automated equipment and boost productivity. Our recommendation focused on two key aspects: the diversity of equipment and the lack of a unified standard for determining equipment capabilities. Furthermore, ensuring timely notification of equipment abnormalities emerged as one of the top three priorities that required attention and resolution.
