In recent years, the manufacturing industry has been experiencing a wave of change. Thanks to innovative technologies in the fields of IT, big data processing, cloud computing and the concept of Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things (IoT), the industry is experiencing a shift towards the smart factory.
Creating a data-networked environment in manufacturing operations is a major challenge for companies today, especially SMEs. At the same time, global networking offers innovative companies numerous opportunities. Business processes are to be digitalised with the help of technology such as artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things. The necessary expertise and the right software are crucial for getting started. One thing is certain: For a smart factory, the technology to connect devices within the company and to collect data from these devices for analysis purposes is essential.
We suggest installing ORiN - the Open Resource Interface for the network - as the best solution for implementing the IoT. ORiN is an IoT data management platform that provides middleware. With the help of the software, information from various automation devices can be collected more efficiently and shared with manufacturing systems, BI tools and cloud solutions. Data can be forwarded freely between all connected devices and software systems, transformed and events or applications can be triggered. Based on ORiN, we as DENSO WAVE have developed various products that offer simple solutions to integrate ORiN functions into existing environments or to build new IoT projects on them.
IoT solution
A "data integration controller" consisting of a highly reliable industrial computer and non-programmable data integration software.
Features
IoT solution
Data integration software that connects various automation devices without programming and provides functions for collecting, processing, storing, notifying and publishing data.
IoT solution
Data visualisation dashboard that works with IoT Data Share and visualises the collected data easily and without programming.
IoT architecture
Tsuzumi* model: Three-channel data integration architecture rugged enough to support the "Industry 4.0 era"
Today's rapidly advancing technology, applications and devices vary, evolve and become increasingly complex. The Tsuzumi model enables a simple and secure link between such applications, devices and applications/devices to improve efficiency and expandability in the smart factory.
Other possible applications
Production (Andon - process optimisation)
With ORiN you can collect data from production devices, save histories and visualise processes using a web-based drag & drop dashboard. Device information can be easily changed and added without programming.
Production (condition monitoring)
Collect and forward device data and store it in a database for integration with predictive maintenance software.
Production control
ORiN provides real-time production information to planning software and feedback from the system to control the flow between assembly line and equipment level.
Data analysis
In-built data analysis and display tools allow collected data to be viewed. Web-based drag & drop windows simplify individual analyses.
Machine / device performance
Device performance can be optimised thanks to the provision and monitoring of information and machines.
Process definition
Define new manufacturing processes with ORiN - purely by configuration and without programming. This includes robots, legacy devices and newer OPC-UA compliant devices.
Retail
ORiN is able to combine seemingly incompatible devices such as PTZ cameras, EAS gates and RFID readers into a complete system. The devices can be monitored, data can be collected and actions can be initiated for customer service, security and statistics.
Horticulture
Monitoring and controlling the environment in greenhouses - with ORiN, sensors can be monitored, ventilation can be controlled and warning signals are activated when certain environmental conditions are in the "red zone".
Smart City
The smart city - the management of bus stops or underground stations and the monitoring of public facilities are just two examples of what IoT can look like for city management. ORiN enables communication with sensors (also wireless), CCTV, security devices (e.g. the Zone-D laser sensor), RFID readers and many other devices. Processes can also be defined and actions initiated when certain events occur.
Healthcare
ORiN can be used to collect data for the operating theatre and provide centralised dashboards for surgeons. The use of RFID also enables the management of medication, while face recognition QR codes support the safety aspect.
