IoT Solution Delivers Actionable Insight

July 8, 2020
Sage Clarity's cloud-based solution delivers actionable insight into manufacturing improvement opportunities for complex production lines.

ABLE is a cloud-based, Internet of Things (IoT) solution that provides real-time root cause analysis for manufacturing operations and is part of Sage Clarity's MES ecosystem product suite.

 

The MES ecosystem product suite is a deep, feature-rich set of modules, integrations, and plug-in applications to expand the MES footprint. Its capabilities help drive IIoT data collection strategies that provide cutting-edge applications to unlock the value of their manufacturing software.

 

ABLE 2.0 functionality Includes: 

  • Real-time progressive root cause analysis
  • Real-time analytics and KPIs for performance including Machine Work Center Availability, MTBF, MTTR
  • APIs to enable the MES ecosystem apps for MES solutions
  • Tight integration with Sage Clarity's other ecosystem apps such as Next Gen Andon, for machine-driven alert tracking

 

The ABLE middleware solution resides between the plant floor and the MES/SCADA layer and requires no PLC data acquisition programming. Cloud technology eliminates the need for special infrastructure, providing easy scale and rapid deployment. The Middleware solution integrates with MES platforms such as Epicor Informance, Wonderware MES, and many others.

  • ABLE integrates IoT edge data into business systems—MES, SCADA, and ERPs.
  • Production line modeling finds the root cause of downtime so you’ll be up and running quickly.
  • Auto-tagging reduces integration costs by 50%, so you can achieve a faster return on investment.
