FACTORY 4.0

LEADING THE WAY

Alesol Equipments has expertise in implementing Factory 4.0 technologies in all three groups:

  • Virtual
  • Motion
  • Decision

In addition to improvements associated with automating a process, these technologies will provide the benefits of being:

  • Predictive
  • Corrective
  • Adaptive

By interconnecting cells of manufacturing, automation, transportation and business processes, Alesol Equipments will help guide your journey to Factory 4.0 and beyond.

VIRTUAL TECHNOLOGIES

Virtual Commissioning
  • Real time emulation of mechanical and controls systems
  • Virtually create a digital twin in CAD
  • Off-line robot programming/validation of machine sequences
  • Virtually debugging of PLC logic
  • Event based simulations to validate cycle times
Virtual Reality
  • Proves complex processes prior to machine release
  • Visualizes human to machine interfaces
  • Allows users to experience machine operation and validate potential issues
Augmented Reality
  • Enhances remote support and training
  • Collects real life data

DECISION TECHNOLOGIES

Internet of Things
  • Smart devices that can make some decisions and feed data to other controllers
Big Data Integration
  • Databases and software networking solutions that store process data for analysis by a controller or AI
Soft Robots (Bots)
  • ‘Bots’ are software programs designed to perform a repetitive local task and feeds data to a central controller or AI
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
  • Developing technology that simulates a working mind and makes use of all of the above to optimize processes and interfaces to suppliers and customer systems
