Q&A
What's the next step after data collection for machine manufacturers?
The next step is to integrate the data into your systems and start implementing preventive maintenance. This strategic approach, fueled by analyzed equipment data, informs your decisions regarding maintenance frequency, resources allocation, processes, chronology, and preventive measures to minimize the risk of future downtime.
I've implemented preventive maintenance. Can I enhance it even further?
Absolutely. Next up in your IIoT journey is predictive maintenance. It uses algorithms to analyze historical data, foreseeing future issues and allowing proactive actions. Going a step further, there's prescriptive maintenance, using advanced models and artificial intelligence to evaluate scenarios and provide specific solutions for improved Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and increased asset reliability.
Can I really trust Ewon solutions when it comes to handling data?
You can. Ewon follows a robust cyber security strategy aligning with the most stringent standards i.e. ISO 27001, IEC 62443, and NIST Cyber security Framework. Its layered security approach includes network segregation, device authentication, firewall protection, encrypted VPN sessions and user management with two-factor authentication. Ewon guarantees reliability with top-notch hardware security, a redundant infrastructure and even offers a Service Level Agreement (SLA) ensuring 99.5% service availability.
Is there a vendor lock-in with HMS' IoT solutions, or can I use other platforms?
There's no vendor lock-in with HMS IoT solutions. Our solutions are designed to seamlessly communicate with other platforms, offering you the flexibility to integrate and collaborate across a diverse range of systems.
