Critical Enablers For Inclusive, Sustainable Industry 4.0
In this presentation, we explain the origin, structure and scope of CFX, including how value is created using CFX through the adoption of a modern digital MES solution, providing factory-level context to the data. Machines report events clearly using CFX, but often those events are created or influenced by external issues. Piecing data together from many sources, as it happens, creates a complete understanding of opportunities to help and make immediate decisions that improve the operation, reacting faster to customer demand changes, as well as providing data qualification for use in the cloud. We look into the many areas of benefits that such a solution brings to the entire business value chain.
