FactoryTX

Sight Machine FactoryTX securely connects to any source of data in the manufacturing environment, standardizes the data in a JSON payload, and routes it to the cloud.

Sight Machine easily connects your data to Kafka topics and other stream processing platforms. Minimal transformations are made so you can quickly iterate on changes in the cloud.

Obstacles to analyzing manufacturing data begin with a most basic question: What is this data?

Why most manufacturers are restricted to focusing data analytics on a small subset of tags:

  • Manufacturing plants continuously generate thousands of data points. Manufacturers want to analyze this data, but first must know what each data point represents.
  • Raw data from machines is often aggregated in tools such as historians, but the way the data is organized may require expert users to interpret.
  • As a result, firms do not know what the data means, meaning most plant data remains untapped. This leaves the promise of many ambitious digital initiatives unfulfilled.

So how can manufacturers efficiently label plant data for analysis?

Automated data labeling

Scaling data labeling

How do you interpret your plant data for analysis?

  • Manual methods to link data labels, or tags, to specific assets require a massive amount of time and expert effort to manually label and link tags to assets and sources.
  • Because this process of manually labeling data is generally not feasible at any scale, most manufacturers are restricted to focusing their data analytics on only a small subset of tags.
  • As a result, most plant data remains untapped, leaving the promise of ambitious digital initiatives unfulfilled.
Benefits

Unlock more value from more data with Blueprint

  • Significantly increase the number of tags linked back to assets and sources
  • Understand what plant data represents in order to become analytics-ready
  • Uncover new analytics-driven insights to improve throughput, quality and sustainability
