Use case

Continuous monitoring

Manufacturing

The challenge Blickle has always prided itself on the superior quality of its wheels and castors. To further enhance this quality with modern technology, the company decided to migrate its production processes to Industry 4.0 standards. This planned transition should have minimal impact on the three-shift production operation, while maintaining flexibility and openness for future digitalization initiatives. The solution Blickle IT developed a concept to enable a sustainable and gradual transformation. At the heart of the strategy is edbic, which enables condition monitoring. Acting as a central data hub, edbic seamlessly extracts data from the machines, transfers it to the ERP system and provides full production transparency. The result With the implementation of edbic, machine data no longer reaches IT incomplete or delayed. Immediate data analysis enables rapid problem resolution. Automatic punching presses are monitored to determine output results, missing parts, quantities and more. By eliminating most of the Excel lists previously used, edbic has significantly streamlined operations. In polyurethane production, edbic identifies and corrects problems, contributing to Blickle's high quality castors and wheels. In addition, edbic is now being used beyond production, facilitating connections to payment providers in the web shop and establishing a communication link with SAP. Outlook for the future Blickle plans to further refine the system by using machine data comparison for predictive maintenance. In addition, the company is considering implementing the compacer IoT gateway to take communication between machines and the ERP system to a new level of automation.

Use case

Digital retrofit at a manufacturer

Electrical installation technology

The challenge: Our customer has an individually analog 30t punching and bending machine in use, which must not be interfered with in the control process. Small hairline cracks in the large drive wheel can lead to a machine failure, resulting in a production stop. Due to the high storage costs, the spare part is not kept in stock. It can take up to three weeks to order and deliver the new part. In order to avoid a machine breakdown, it should be digitally connected to the current production environment and in future the condition of the gearwheel should be analyzed by means of condition monitoring and a breakage better predicted. Our customer's goal was therefore to make the machine IoT-ready with a digital retrofit in order to reduce machine downtimes and increase machine utilization times. The solution: Digital activation of the existing system was unavoidable, which is why sensors were initially installed by the customer to detect the gear breakage. The vBox from Fraunhofer IPT processes the sensor signals and sends the data to the compacer data platform edbic. Among other things, structure-borne noise, vibration, temperature, torque and current are measured. Increased current consumption, which can be a sign of excessive load due to friction and a lack of lubricant, is detected. However, the collected and evaluated data also reveals smaller cracks. The frequency spectrum and other values are recorded, compared and examined for outliers in real time. If an outlier, such as a crack, is detected, an alarm is generated and employees are informed. They can take action if necessary and production downtime can be avoided. Our customer: a German market leader in the field of electrical installation technology and global market leader in SCHUKO® sockets, produces at two locations in Germany and exports to more than 60 countries. In order to further expand its brand leadership and establish innovations in the smart home sector, the company is taking on new digital challenges.

Use case

Business and IoT integration in Antwerp Euroterminal

Ports

The challenge: The implementation of a new Terminal Operating System (TOS) offered our customer the unique opportunity to rethink the entire IT landscape. Accelerating the digital transformation and reducing the workload became key target definitions. The aim was to meet the ever-changing internal and customer requirements, while offering high-quality services to end customers. The most important factors were maintaining a high level of customer satisfaction and a clear commitment to maximum security. The existing system landscape had grown with the company and was therefore very heterogeneous and poorly integrated. This had led to high maintenance and administration costs. Integration projects were only implemented when necessary and integration problems were solved by in-house developments. This led to silo thinking and resulted in increasingly fragmented and isolated knowledge. It became clear that networking the respective systems with suitable tools would create immediate added value and greater transparency. In addition to the "classic" challenges of integration projects, our customer emphasized that the topic of IoT integration was very important to them. Particular attention should be paid to finding the right speed and the right tools for the changeover. A software platform that would enable them to connect their B2B partners and their applications electronically and provide a solid basis for the planned IoT integration would therefore be far ahead of all competing offerings. The solution: The customer decided to use the compacer edbic platform as a B2B/IoT gateway. The integration platform acts as a central "data hub" for our customer and the applications of its trading partners. It has since become the core of all operational and logistical flows. edbic was supplemented in a second step by edpem to introduce business process monitoring (BPM). A whole series of integration projects were implemented in a very short space of time. Some of these were "traditional" B2B projects designed to enable the exchange of EDI, XML and proprietary data with the applications of trading partners and third parties by converting and transmitting the data transparently. In addition, a large number of applications were connected via edbic. The system for shift planning and management of terminal workers was linked to the access control system for the port, enabling automated payroll and significantly relieving the HR department of day-to-day tasks. Integration with the customer's ERP environment, on the other hand, partially automated order acceptance, fulfillment and billing. New capabilities were also added, such as the generation of data records for structured test scenarios, automated access control based on shift planning and visitor appointments, and much more. However, the port operator wanted to go one step further and tackle its first IoT project. For the pilot project, sensor data from the terminal's various weighing and measuring systems was published via edbic. A typical use case is measuring the verified gross mass (VGM) to comply with SOLAS requirements. The data obtained is now automatically fed into higher-level systems such as the TOS or stowage planning for loading ships, where it is available for further processing, analysis and visualization. The network of surveillance cameras has been connected to a perimeter security system, which enables the early detection of intruders. The comparison of number recognition events (ANPR) with access control information and TOS transactions makes anomalies visible, improves traffic management and increases security - a key concern in port terminals. All of this is controlled by edbic. This new level of digitalization makes everyday terminal logistics easier and significantly increases the efficiency of the port.

Use case

EDI in electronics wholesale

Wholesale

The challenge: Due to a lack of transparency in communication, there are always gaps in the transfer of know-how between the active shareholders. A standardized communication structure between customers and business partners must therefore be established. Among other things, this should also contain information on delivery information and ensure greater transparency within the business processes. One challenge, for example, was the lack of visibility of goods availability, which needed to be resolved. The solution: In addition to establishing central IT services, the aim was to create a modern communication concept for Europe-wide business processes using EDI so that all shareholders in Europe can access all data in a shared database. compacer was commissioned to develop, set up and operate a fully integrated B2B industry platform for the group of companies. In addition to the EDI component with integrated supplier onboarding portal, this was also to cover the topic of e-invoicing. An e-invoicing platform was to be established that implements e-billing, signed PDF, e-mail distribution and ZUGFeRD in practice. Our customer: is a market community in electrical wholesale and a group of companies that operates internationally in 26 countries. More than 230 independently cooperating electrical wholesalers now belong to the association. Almost every shareholder is an independent family business. The aim is to strengthen the future of wholesalers. That is why the company's focus is also on cooperation with the individual manufacturers. This is also the reason why a central e-commerce platform had to be set up and expanded.

Use case

Replacement of Legacy Systems

Logistics

The challenge: Our customer was in a very difficult situation: the existing data integration software was outdated, extensions from the provider were no longer possible and support for the software had also been discontinued. As a result, they were looking for a successor that would meet the criteria for a modern data and integration platform, e.g. through web services, and enable a high data throughput. The decisive factor for the customer was full integration into the IBM/AS400/DB2/MQ system environment while adhering to the specified budget and schedule and the modernization and development of a data integration platform for EDI services as a group application with separate systems for development and testing. The solution: The decisive arguments for choosing compacer were, on the one hand, the price and also the time savings that compacer had estimated for the migration project with its model-based and automated project approach. Even the customer's internal service provider would not have been able to implement this in this time frame or with the budget that had been included. On the other hand, the customer was also impressed by the diverse possibilities and flexibility of the compacer data and integration platform edbic during an on-site reference appointment. The migration not only involved the automated porting of around 1,500 mappings and the associated EDI message connections, but also 2,400 partner connections, with the premise that this should have no impact on the connected business partners. Result: Thanks to our model-based project method and close-meshed project controlling, we were easily able to keep to the project timeframe and the specified budget in this migration project. This also made it possible for us to provide the customer with flexible support wherever possible, absorb work peaks on the customer side and gradually take on additional tasks for the customer. We saw this as a great vote of confidence. But it was not only the compacer project method and the successful cooperation that had a positive influence on the speed of the project. Thanks to our established, model-based approach and the automation by means of tool-supported porting of message structures and processes, conversion times and manual sources of error were drastically reduced. This has reduced the migration and testing effort by 80% to 90% compared to the usual manual approach. By using the compacer data integration platform edbic, our customer can now set up processes more easily in day-to-day operations, reuse modules and monitor processes and their interaction more effectively. This significantly increases IT efficiency. The system load is currently 2 million data records per working day (8 hours) and a peak load of 1 million/hour, whereby the system is designed for up to 7 million data records per day. The customer was impressed not only by the flexibility and adaptability of the platform, but above all by its speed. The next step is to implement the diverse possibilities of web services with edbic.

Custom Electronic Design

automotive, E-mobility, automation, industrial automation, machinery, industrial machinery, smart industry, industry 4.0

Electronic design frameworks Electronic design starts from the component layout specification. Also, it consists in the definition of interconnections and PCB technology. Finally, component selection is formalized (BOM, Bill of Material), such as the circuit schematics and the layout of PCB traces (gerber file). If the Electronc Systems is composed of multiple circuit boards, electronic design includes the description of the interconnection schemes, and the instructions for the wiring manufacturing. Adgenera develops electronic circuits tailored and suitable for any application. It selects the most valuable technology for the peculiar field of application, in order to ensure the maximum reliability. Electronic design frameworks Custom-designed electronic solutions can be found in many sectors, covering various fields of application and meeting Client needs. The most frequent requests are: design “from the scratch” miniaturization of an existing circuit board cost Reduction electronic board update, when components are no longer available engineering a prototypal board, either partially or completely working functional improvement (for example, adding a wireless interface) performance improvement (for example, power consumption reduction) Other elements increase the complexity of the electronic design: legacy firmware for the previous version of board need for a custom / legacy interface to other electronic existing systems availability of the components on the market within a certain amount of time project constraints due to standards or certifications The steps of the Electronic Design Electronic design aims to respond to the request of designing and producing electronic circuit boards. First, the customer is interviewed on the characteristics of the electronic system to be designed.. The customer is actively involved to identify the best design choices. This preliminary phase leads to the correct identification of development times and costs, allowing the customer to verify the compliance with his needs and to create a preliminary project planning. Now the electronic scheme can be designed. Specific skills of our designers are applied to correctly select and size the components. Once the scheme has been designed, the electronic components available on the market are selected. Then, they will be soldered to the electronic board during its production phase. We select the most suitable package of components depending on the layout, the space available and the type of application. This design phase leads a draft of the BOM (Bills of Materials) necessary to supply and solder the right components. The electronic components chosen are placed on the board surface. Their positions strictly match design constraints principles to guarantee the correct functioning of the electronic system. Usually several alternative arrangements are evaluated. Finally, the chosen one is the one that leads to the best result once the electronic card is produced. Once the components are finally placed in the board, it is necessary to draw the connections (tracks) that appropriately connect the pins of the components themselves. The tracks design needs to follow many rules and best practices: although there are infinite ways to connect the chosen components, only a few solutions guarantee a good quality card. The preliminary electronic design project is ready: the first board samples are created to check the functionality and performance of the designed electronic system in the laboratory. During the tests, the laboratory instrumentation verifies that each quantity measurable on the card corresponds to the value theoretically calculated during the electronic scheme design.
