In the production industry, automation of processes is of a very high importance. The introduction of new Industry 4.0 features to digitize the operation of whole factories is on-going.

Monitoring of machines is an important base to:

• reduce unexpected down-time of assets
• optimize the performance of machines
• predict potential failures and organize maintenance activities

A lot of information throughout the plant needs to be collected to implement such monitoring functions. Wireless communication can be an important enabler to attach new sensors to existing machines and installations: wireless makes retrofit much easier and allows to monitor also moving or rotating parts.
Neratec can provide a number of products and solutions for automation industry.
