Rockwell Automation and PTC Launch FactoryTalk InnovationSuite, Powered by PTC, a software suite that enables industrial companies to optimize operations and improve productivity by leveraging better data and information. Users gain full visibility into operations and system health from a single source of information across the enterprise. FactoryTalk InnovationSuite, powered by PTC, is the first offering to integrate technologies from both companies after the strategic partnership was announced in June.
FactoryTalk InnovationSuite, powered by PTC enhances connectivity with devices with operational technology (OT) in the plant, natively supporting fast, scalable, and secure connection of popular industrial equipment. By combining it with data from applications and computer (IT) systems, decision-makers can now obtain a complete digital representation of their machines, lines and installations across the enterprise.
“ Our offering is unique in its ability to help businesses better leverage IIoT by combining the expertise of industry, technology and production professionals, ” said John Genovesi, incoming senior vice president, key accounts and software for Rockwell Automation. “ We are now combining innovative solutions from PTC with Rockwell Automation's industry-leading manufacturing operations management (MOM) and analytics platforms to deliver a single industrial solution . "
" We are revolutionizing the way advanced technologies are used in industry ," said Catherine Knicker, director of strategic alliances for PTC. Digital technologies are undergoing rapid development, but manufacturers continue to apply obsolete practices established for older generation companies. This bundle will allow organizations to accelerate time to value and find new ways to be competitive, removing barriers that hold back their businesses and taking a comprehensive approach to operational intelligence . "
This joint offering includes FactoryTalk Analytics and MOM platforms as well as PTC's ThingWorx industrial IoT platform, which offers Kepware's industrial connectivity and Vuforia's augmented reality solution. Its main characteristics:
-
Intuitive and user-friendly interfaces that give visibility into operations by combining data from numerous OT and IT sources and adapted to their roles. For example, an operations manager can see the overall performance of an industrial site or of several factories before looking at that of a particular machine or the factors that influence the TRG.
-
Automated advanced analysis of IT and OT sources transforms massive volumes of raw data into proactive or actionable insights to improve performance and reduce the impact of production downtime. By harnessing the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to simplify complex analytical processes, users can now respond to problems before they become critical.
-
Augmented Reality (AR) provides more efficient and effective means to search for digital information in the real world. AR improves the quality of training, knowledge sharing, and first response problem resolution rates. With this bundle, maintenance can, for example, receive digitized work instructions with real-time performance and repair history information so technicians can better diagnose and repair machines the first time.
