Digital Manufacturing

Digital Manufacturing

Against this background, developments in IT are continuously expanding the range of possibilities for optimizing production processes through the digitalization of machinery and equipment. However, getting started with digitalization is often difficult because the solutions can be highly diverse and overwhelming, the applications are generally complex and solutions can often only be put in place partnering with more than one supplier. The limited resources of companies make it difficult to be well informed in this area and to keep up-to-date with developments relating to digitalization of the shop floor.

Our maturity level analysis as a starting point for your digitisation

Konica Minolta's Maturity Analysis Industry 4.0 offers a standardised procedure for determining the status of your production with regard to digitisation. In addition, maturity analysis enables the identification of existing potentials for the integration of digital technologies in the manufacturing process. In order to use IIoT solutions successfully, precise knowledge of the machine park, machine networking and production processes is required. With the help of the detailed maturity level analysis, the current situation in your production is recorded and documented in a structured way. If IIoT projects have already been started, such as pilot projects in selected areas of production, these are included in the analysis. The maturity level analysis serves as an evaluation instrument and provides a basis for selecting the next steps to introduce the optimal IIoT technology. In this way, you can select the production areas that offer the greatest potential for the use of IIoT solutions in your production.

Highlights
