MES & IoT platform — PFW
Proway Factory World
Digital solutions for the transformation of the shopfloor.
At a glance
Proway Factory World combines state-of-the-art IoT and data-analytics technologies into one integrated solution. Machine-independent, modular and scalable — for a sustainable increase in efficiency across people, machines and energy.
Plug & Play
Digital transformation on the shopfloor — simple, fast and without high project costs.
Machine-independent
Integrates regardless of manufacturer, technology or age — even without native data interfaces.
Higher availability
Predictive maintenance reduces downtime and utilises machines more efficiently.
Measure, visualise, boost performance.
The module captures machine data during operation and renders it as clear graphics. Dashboards create transparency across the machine park, shifts and KPIs — boosting performance and cutting costs.
- IoT-based capture of machine productivity
- Dashboards for productive times and disruptions
- Analytics for trends and developments
- Manager app & push notifications
- Shift reports and Excel / PDF export
Measure, analyse, reduce energy use.
The module measures the actual energy consumption of machines, equipment and building units and displays it in real time — as consumption in kWh, as a carbon footprint in kg CO₂ or as costs in €. Combined with order management, evaluation is order-related.
Orders and assets digitally under control.
Order management
Plan and capture production orders digitally. Order, material, operating and energy data are merged order-related on the shopfloor.
Asset management
Plan and control maintenance, servicing and safety inspections digitally — for higher machine availability.
Digital logbook
Every asset keeps its own logbook: downtime, faults, repairs and inspections documented automatically.
Good-to-know module
Machine-specific know-how, work and QM instructions provided digitally and centrally.
The BoosterBOX.
If a machine has no native data interface, the BoosterBOX is installed as a plug-and-play device directly in the control cabinet. It captures all relevant performance data during operation and forwards it via LTE, WLAN or LAN to Proway Factory World — compact IP 65 aluminium housing, own power supply with integrated UPS.
