Factory line stopped cold. Sensor failed overnight. No alert went out...

The Lesson

Downtime costs too much. Manual monitoring fails always. Sensors generate endless data. Humans can't watch everything. Automated systems catch problems early. Minutes matter in manufacturing.

😤

1. The Problem

Your team faces: Smart Factory IoT

Manufacturing floors lose $647 billion annually to unplanned downtime. Without real-time IoT visibility, equipment failures strike without warning, halting entire production lines. Traditional monitoring catches problems too late—after critical machinery fails, orders miss deadlines, and emergency repairs cost 3-5x standard maintenance. Your competitors are already streaming sensor data to predict failures before they happen.

⚠️

15-20 hours downtime

Unexpected Equipment Failures

Critical machinery breaks without warning, stopping production lines and missing customer delivery commitments.

💸

$260K average loss

Reactive Maintenance Costs

Emergency repairs cost triple normal rates while rushed parts shipping destroys maintenance budgets.

📊

40% efficiency gap

Zero Production Visibility

Blind operations waste energy, materials, and labor without real-time performance data insights.
