Connecting Factories Through Digital Twins: A Journey in Digital Transformation
A global climate solutions manufacturer struggled to make critical production decisions with incomplete data and manual processes that couldn't keep up with their environmental mission. Netlight supported in transforming their factory floor into a connected, data-driven operation that bridges the gap between production reality and strategic capability.
About the client
The client is a global leader in climate solutions for mission-critical processes. They offer innovative, efficient, and sustainable solutions for customers in industries where controlling indoor humidity, temperature and energy efficiency is mission-critical.
Challenge
The company faced minimal collaboration between factory operations and the digital department, creating a gap between production insights and strategic planning. Struggling with production line data quality and visualisation, the client had problems analysing the data and making critical business decisions. Netlight was brought in to help bridge that gap and start the digitalisation journey at the factories.
Solution
The Netlight team established a web-based dashboards platform, which was identified to be a primary factor for enabling factory data analysis and internal discussions about the process line. Additionally, the team worked iteratively with stakeholders and factory operators to create a web application that ensured better data quality and less manual work. Our team also replaced old business-critical systems with digital scalable solutions, further facilitating the digitalization of the client.
Impact
- The dashboard solution enables the detection of anomalies in production lines and decision-making.
- With a digital twin for the production line, the client has been able to automate previously manual processes, increasing efficiency and data quality.
- Replacing unstable systems in the factory, the client has been able to reduce production line downtime.
