EroNkan IIoT platform turns PLC data into valuable dashboards & insights
The drive behind EroNkan’s company has always been to create an Industrial IoT
product of global standards within India itself. It started with the idea of extracting
data from a transformer’s PLC, to now becoming a complete use case driven solution,
successfully implemented in multiple companies.
The Ewon Flexy devices make it possible to communicate with most PLCs
For EroNkan, the ability to integrate Industry 4.0 and new technologies into existing machines and heterogeneous systems was
particularly crucial. This is indeed what allows EroNkan’s platform to provide the analytics & visualizations needed to understand what is happening on the shop floor.
While searching for gateways, EroNkan discovered that the Ewon Flexy devices made it possible to communicate with most PLCs on the market (as well as legacy machines),
thanks to a wide range of protocols - which made it the ideal choice.
Using the Ewon Flexy, they were able to extract critical real-time data and translate it into valuable dashboards & analytics that boost performances. Kahaan Vasa, Business Development Manager at EroNkan, explains: "In food companies, we have increased OEE b y 3-5% and reduced machine downtime
by up to 10%".
