INDUSTRIAL IOT
Increased Efficiency in Industrial Processes by Smart Communication Technologies
WIRELESS IOT
Monitoring, Controlling, and Maintenance
Industrial IoT provides remote monitoring, controlling, and (predictive, AI based) maintenance to manufacturer’s production infrastructure. The possibility to scale up these functionalities to the dimensions of a large and geographically distributed industry is based to a large extent on wireless connectivity solutions (both cellular and non-cellular like WiFi, Bluetooth LE, UWB, LoRa, NB-IoT, RAIN RFID, NFC, 4G, and 5G) but also wired communication like CAN or Real-Time Ethernet (e.g. Profinet or TSN) play key roles. On top of the physical and protocol implementations TRUST – in terms of data integrity, access control/privacy, safety resource-optimized, reliable and robust – plays the key role in industrial IoT.

Advanced Design Methods by Simulation
Aside from the manufacturing process Industrial IoT focuses heavily on interconnectivity, automation, machine learning, and real-time data which can be achieved through the interoperability of different Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC) technologies. Most industrial processes are data-driven. This data is collected during the process with the help of identification technology like e.g. RAIN RFID or NFC. Trusted wired- and wireless-communication helps to optimize the supply chain, supports predictive maintenance/analytics, and provides real-time tracking of raw materials and stages during product development
keeping the manufacturing lines and Work In Progress (WIP) at clockwork precision.The machines used are able to independently recognize when there is a need for maintenance. In some circumstances, maintenance can even be done by the machines themselves. The number of disruptions and production interruptions decreases while increasing throughput and production capacity. RFID also connects vertically integrated processes with sensor tags making the entire production process visible which is in alignment with Industry 4.0.
