Tomorrow Things

We're proud to welcome Prof. Dr. Peter Hofmann to our Industry Advisory Board! With over 30 years of leadership in industrial automation and robotics, and experience with industry giants like KUKA, Krones, and Festo, his expertise aligns perfectly with our vision of universal machine connectivity through Digital Twins — laying the essential foundation for groundbreaking #AI applications. We asked him why he sees such great potential in Tomorrow Things' #DigitalTwins for the industry? "To optimize manufacturing processes and make informed decisions, data collection and analysis are crucial. However, the multi-vendor landscape in today's production facilities complicates unified data access. We often encounter machines from different manufacturers and technological generations, each using different, often proprietary, communication interfaces. This results in many technology-specific, isolated solutions that require domain-specific knowledge. By using Cloud Connect to enable communication between machines, peripherals, and industrial software, all interfaces are implemented at once, without needing a specialist. At the same time, a powerful Digital Twin is created for each component, enabling sustainable optimizations."

Does this sound appealing to you? #TomorrowThings #IIoT #SecureHosting Sebastian Hilscher

How can industrial manufacturing achieve the next level of efficiency? The key lies in harnessing process and machine data. Today, accessing this data is simpler than ever. By linking machine interfaces to the industrial internet (#IIoT), you can continuously capture and store operational data, events, and error codes in the cloud. This data foundation enables numerous optimizations, from fine-tuning machine settings and process parameters to real-time condition monitoring and adjustments during production. The potential for improvement is vast once you ensure data availability. ⭐ The most effective way to leverage this data is through a #DigitalTwin, which provides a real-time mirror of machines and processes. The great news? Creating these Digital Twins is now easier than ever with our solution #CloudConnect, which sets them up in just minutes without the need for a system integrator or extensive personnel effort.
