The Connectivity Toolkit gives operations managers access to assets, sensors, equipment, and other industrial data sources using industrial protocols such as Ethernet/IP, OPC UA, Modbus etc., as well as Enterprise Systems such as various ERP Systems (Oracle, Infor, SAP etc.), Design systems (PLM) as well as Planning and Supply Chain Systems.

This data is transmitted via the high-speed Service Bus to other components of the platform for consumption and action.

One such consumer is the Workflow Engine which houses the definitions of the end-to-end manufacturing flows. Via a workflow engine, operations managers can ensure that the various systems, assets and operators can orchestrate a manufacturing process end to end.

Another consumer of information is the Stream Analytics Engine which listens to patterns of data to proactively alert operations teams about exception conditions that need attention.

The Connected Worker app is also engaged when operators need to perform activities on the shop floor away from connected terminals. Using either a tablet or a wearable device, operators can perform inspection activities and execute maintenance requests in a efficient and auditable format.    Learn More
