CASE STUDY
Britax Römer, one of the leading manufacturers of child car seats and strollers, has played a pioneering role since the 1960s in the development of standards for vehicle safety, and more specifically, the safety of children in vehicles. As in many companies, the pressure to lower costs led to an investment in new
technologies. Because of the rising labor expenses in a high-wage country like Germany, assembly facilities have to identify ways to control costs in other areas. In order to optimize production, it became necessary for Britax Römer Kindersicherheit GmbH to gather data from diverse data sources.
Challenges:
- Collect data from existing systems
- Display manufacturing metrics
- Minimize production downtime
SOLVING INDUSTRIAL OPERATIONS CHALLENGES
Reducing Total Cost of Ownership
- How can I actively reduce costs while maximizing my existing infrastructure? Enable communication from existing industrial infrastructure to IoT platforms, , Modbus, and our easy-to-configure RAMQTT – maximizing capital investment and reducing total cost of ownership
Secured Remote Site Monitoring
- How can you effectively monitor remote sites in real-time and around the clock? Managing increased data flow from sensors and video monitoring systems, integrating processes to include M2M monitoring and seamlessly sharing data between facilities in real time to synchronize operations is critical.
Operating in Harsh Environments
- How do you ensure uninterrupted monitoring of industrial operations? Just as ice formation can stop the flow of a river, extreme temperatures can stop the flow of data from remote operations. Because modern facilities and control systems run on information, even a brief interruption to data flow can introduce significant risk to operations.
RED LION SOLUTIONS
With a variety of options, Red Lion is the right choice for industrial HMI (Human Machine Interface) panels. From factories to extreme remote locations, our HMIs enable customers to easily connect, monitor and control processes.
Red Lion’s rugged N-Tron® and Sixnet® series industrial Ethernet switches are designed to meet diverse networking environments. Built-in redundancy coupled with robust reliability ensures critical infrastructures stay up and running around the clock.
Red Lion offers the broadest range of cellular M2M routers and RTUs available on the market today. Featuring standards-based, enterprise-class capabilities, our cellular routers and RTUs enable secure, reliable data access, anywhere, anytime.
We help connect many different devices in multi-vendor environments, including older equipment, and get them to “talk” with each other in a way that they could not before allowing organizations to improve efficiency and gain a competitive advantage.
As part of their IIOT/ predictive maintenance applications Hyundai selected Red Lion Solutions Dynamic Visual Display combined with analytical software to better understand machine behaviour and take predictive action well before issues occur.
