OEE
• Contains all the information collected from MES, SCADA, ERP into
data lakes in cloud.
• Contains machine learning algorithms to analyse patterns, tell events
by analyzing logs.
• Eg. My bearing lasts 800 strokes when I run product A and 1200
strokes when I product B---- Predictive analytics –How much bearing
will last?
• Cloud and IIoT are the areas of development in Industry Automation.
What is IIoT? How does it matter?
• All 5 layers are seamlessly connected
5 layer Model- Automation Stack

Traditional Connection
• Specific Engg. Solutions required to connect Many equipment and PLC on Plant
floor to SCADA and MES.
• PLC connected through OPC servers to SCADA.
• OPC Servers converts hardware communication data from PLC into OPC
protocol so that SCADA software can access the data.
• MES gets data from PLC through SCADA.
• Industries not able to integrate MES, SCADA and PLCs
• MES has all paper reports like routing sheets carried by human operators- Paper
traveler goes from one manufacturing operation to next.
• MES cannot access any equipment or PLC data without people.
• People handling data – increase cost
Challenge- Traditional Connection
• MES – Order processing and Handling raw material.
• Calculates efficiency (OEE).
• Therefore MES should talk to the equipment on Plant
floor
IIoT
• All Equipment, routers, thermostats, phones, cameras etc. publish to
single unified name space- one location- contains all information of
equipment.
• ERP, MES, SCADA subscribe information from UNS
• All equipment connected under one name space and all consumers get
data from name space.
• Manufacturer make devices to show up in UNS whenever plugged in.
• Integrators of technology should understand every layer of entire
stack, specialize in every layer.
Scaling up our pizza business and turning it into a pizza
production
• A leap from a start-up to a production facility
• All the production processes are interlinked and being monitored,
controlled and documented automatically
“Hierarchy level” based on pizza production
Description of “hierarchy level” based on an example of pizza
production
• Field device: sensors, actuators, hardware etc. (Input-output). For example, temperature and humidity
sensor for pizza bread production band.
• Control device: devices controlling the equipment that are attached to (PLC/HMI). For example, device
maintaining optimum temperature of oven based on inputs of field device layer and monitoring the
deviation.
• Station: Supervisory control, monitoring and control of processes as well as event storage layer
(SCADA). For example, coordination of various pizza baking processes (bread baking, tomatoes
crushing etc.) and monitoring all events (No. of bake instances, instances of overheating) for a short
period of time.
• Work Center: Data storage, analysis and documentation layer (MES). For example, work center
showing daily/weekly/monthly review and baking performance in terms of quality (bad bake) and
production efficiency (incline/decline).
• Enterprise: Overall management of core business processes (ERP). For example, overall record of
production vs procurement, order intake vs production, expenses (salaries, electricity bill, machine
maintenance etc.)
Asset Layer
• List of all possible “assets” (hardware, software, applications,
documentation, processes-plans, humans etc.) with regards to the
different hierarchy levels, for complete life cycle and value stream. For
this particular example, we assume the transition from pizza start-up
(manual processes) to advance pizza production (automated processes).
• The “hierarchy level” under “information layer” might contain values
like temperature values, signals etc. under field device, set values for
best pizza bake under control device, number of cycles/pizza baked
and fails events under station, production cycle data (hours, events,
etc.) under work center and so on.
Challenge of Traditional Factory
• Schedule was shared from ERP to through plant floor through paper
and people.
• People make mistakes
• When ERP is not connected to plant floor- Accuracy of schedule is
based on the person who knows what is going on the plant floor.
What is Digital Factory?
No more paper in Industry 4.0- Digitization of Manufacturing.
People interface with Equipment
Equipment interface equipment
People consume from the software.
Connected Stack- 5 Layer Industry Automation
Real time Matrix- Decision not done by people based on historical data.
Real time SCADA matrix along with schedule matrix of ERP in real time.
Eg. New Sales which just came in, Weather change impact on Shipping
duration, Currency exchange rates.
Big data analytics – predictive maintenance, machine learning,- Use real time
data from plant floor and data from the past stored in the data lakes.
Predict an event on the basis of something we have learnt.
Value of Digital Factory
• Decrease number of Errors because Data taken from source of truth.
• Equipment has all the right information- what are we running, when
are we running, how are we running and what we produce.
• ERP handles scheduling- what should I be running.
• In Digital factory uses IIoT protocol – ERP Schedule depends on the
data that comes from the equipment on the plant floor.
• Schedule depends on the real time without relying on a person making
executive decisions.
Digital Factory
• Personal Digital Transformation- 90%
• Manufacturing Industries Digital Transformation- 10%
• Don’t know HOW? HOW do they do it?
• Industry 4.0 Solution providers- OEM, End Users and Technology
integrators should drive the transformation
Industry 4.0- Digital transformation- IIoT
Pre Internet Post Internet
Communication- Clipboards, Stack Light, Memos, Email, SMS, communicate problem on the plant
Telecom. floor - Andon Boards (Equipment to People),
communicate problem from machine to machine-
digital comments in MES, notify using webpages.
Share information- Conference room meetings, SLACK, Zoom
Execute work order- Go to schedule board Handle schedule- Digital, Real time, prediction
Start a machine- Push button on machine Control room, SCADA, MES
How did you get new raw material- phone calls, No bells
bell notifications,
How decision makers know that plant is running- Real time reporting i.e. OEE
Daily reports
Powerful Software- Excel
How Industry 4.0 + Digital Transformation +
IIoT work together.
You have all Data + Information in the
Unified Name Space
How you monetize Data?
Single Source of Truth for Data
Industry 4.0 + Digital Transformation + IIoT

Industry 4.0
• 4 th Industry Revolution- Movement in Time.
• Data collected from all networks and Smart devices processed into
information used for decision making by CEO to increase profitability
for my Shareholders.
• Till 3rd Industrial Revolution - Data used was not real time- They
aggregated data at the end of Day/week/month/quarter to take
decision. Did not know financial position in real time.
• Digitally Transformed business provides these values by processing
real time data into information using IIoT protocol.

Where are we late in delivery which could
cause penalty?
What is the revenue and Cost? Which orders
are profitable?
Based on the current performance i.e. Real time – where late delivery is
expected, Miss your schedule.
