Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our manufacturing technology solutions and implementation process.

Implementation timelines vary based on scope and complexity. A focused pilot project (single production line) typically takes 8-12 weeks. Full-scale smart factory implementations across multiple lines or facilities range from 6-18 months, depending on the number of systems, integrations, and locations involved. We always start with a rapid proof-of-concept to demonstrate value before committing to broader deployment.

Absolutely. We specialize in brownfield implementations and have extensive experience connecting to legacy equipment from all major vendors (Siemens, Rockwell, Mitsubishi, ABB, Schneider, etc.). We use industrial protocols like OPC-UA, Modbus, PROFINET, and EtherNet/IP, along with edge gateways that can extract data from even decades-old equipment without disrupting operations. You don't need to replace your existing infrastructure to benefit from Industry 4.0.

Based on our client implementations, predictive maintenance typically delivers 25-35% reduction in maintenance costs, 70-75% decrease in unplanned downtime, and 20-25% extension of equipment lifespan. Most clients achieve ROI within 8-14 months. The exact returns depend on your current maintenance practices, equipment criticality, and production environment. We provide detailed ROI projections during the assessment phase.

Industrial cybersecurity is foundational to everything we build. We implement defense-in-depth strategies following IEC 62443 and NIST frameworks, including network segmentation (Purdue Model), secure remote access, encrypted communications, regular vulnerability assessments, and continuous monitoring. Our solutions include industrial firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and secure edge architectures that protect OT networks while enabling necessary connectivity.

Yes, comprehensive training and change management are integral to our implementation approach. We provide role-based training for operators, maintenance technicians, engineers, and management. This includes hands-on workshops, train-the-trainer programs, documentation, and ongoing support. We also offer AR-based training solutions that enable workers to learn new systems in context on the actual equipment. Our goal is to ensure your team is fully self-sufficient while we remain available for advanced support.
