FACTORIES BUSINESSES
Maintenance worker is
alerted to the problem
on mobile device
A worker notices a problem. Alerts someone else to inspect. They walk
across the factory floor to investigate the machine problem. They walk back
to the office and call the appropriate repair resources. The proper tools are
located. Back at the machine, worker begins to fix the problem.
The machine's control
data can be viewed
remotely
Problem is diagnosed in
real time, from anywhere
in the plant
The right people, equipment
and parts get to the
machine faster
Machine is brought back
into service quickly.
