Industries

IT for manufacturing

Plant networks and edge rooms that keep production moving.

What matters

  • Production can't stop for IT: a network outage on the shop floor stops lines.
  • Office and plant networks kept apart: machines and controllers on their own segment.
  • Data from machines: energy, output and condition data for decisions, not spreadsheets.
  • Harsh conditions: dust, heat and vibration in edge server rooms.

How we help

  • Plant network design: separated OT and IT networks, industrial-grade Wi-Fi, redundant links to head office
  • Edge server rooms: power, cooling and monitoring sized for the plant
  • IoT: sensors, gateways and dashboards for energy, machine condition and output
  • AMC and FMS with resident engineers for large plants
  • Backup of plant servers and configurations

A typical engagement

  1. A walk-through of the plant network, server room and machine connectivity.
  2. Separating OT from IT traffic, and fixing single points of failure.
  3. An IoT pilot on one line (energy or machine condition), then rollout.

Questions

Can you connect older machines?
Often, through gateways that read Modbus or similar; a site survey confirms it.
Do you work shifts?
Resident and shift engineers can match your production shifts.
