The manufacturing industry faces a range of challenges that require innovative solutions and strategic planning. Manufacturers must find ways to optimize their operations, reduce costs, and increase efficiency while also complying with environmental regulations and meeting changing customer demands. At the same time, they must also navigate an increasingly competitive global marketplace and address supply chain challenges and skilled labor shortages.
The Macrometa hyper distributed cloud platform provides real-time monitoring and data analytics by integrating data from multiple sources, including IoT and legacy systems, to help manufacturers reduce downtime and costs, improve quality, and accelerate sustainability efforts.
Macrometa can provide the ultra low latency and high performance Edge Compute needed to run complex artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms for digital twins, predictive maintenance, and computer vision - even with large and dynamic volumes of data.
With increased digitization and the use of cloud-based systems, manufacturers are more vulnerable to fraud actors. Macrometa provides robust security measures to protect manufacturing systems and data, helping manufacturers adhere to data privacy laws and keep blueprints and other sensitive information confidential.
Benefits
Seamless Data Integration
Macrometa can integrate vast amounts of data in different formats and from multiple sources like sensors, machines, and supplier systems, so manufacturers can apply real-time insights into their operations and make informed decisions. AI and ML technologies rely heavily on data integration to supply accurate real-time data from sensors and other sources to navigate their environment and make decisions.
Real-Time Monitoring and Data Analytics
Macrometa offers intelligent location tracking on asset data to provide the real-time location of manufacturing assets (material, equipment, or product) down to the individual unit. Real-time process control systems can adjust and optimize live processes not just on the manufacturing floor but organization-wide. With real-time tracking and analytics from sourcing to building and distributing, manufacturers can gain end-to-end visibility and better manage their supply chain and production.
Data Privacy and Fraud Detection
Macrometa helps manufacturers comply with regional regulations such as GDPR and CCPA with data pinning, vaulting, encryption, access controls, and data anonymization features for reporting across regions. By monitoring variables in production or delivery, Macrometa can help manufacturers detect and prevent theft or other malicious activity, providing manufacturers with a greater peace of mind.
Digital Twins and Predictive Maintenance
Digital twins replicate real-world scenarios virtually and provide deep insights into product, user, and system behavior. Predictive maintenance is powered by the data, algorithms, and insights that reside within the IoT-enabled manufacturing line. The Macrometa hyper distributed cloud can process and analyze streaming event data generated by IoT sensors and devices in the context of past and real-time events in milliseconds, allowing manufacturers to make corrections and plan ahead in real time.
