Digitization in mechanical engineering
The mechanical engineering of the future functions digitally. This change was heralded decades ago with the introduction of CAD systems and NC controls and is now continuing in the digitization of value creation processes and services. On the one hand, digital processes offer the opportunity for greater efficiency and flexibility, and on the other, the data generated in the process lays the foundation for digital customer offerings. It is these so-called smart services that will form the core of the service offering in the future and thus the relevant differentiation potential.
Industry 4.0 means added value and innovation through software. This enables you to provide your customers with new benefits throughout the entire machine life cycle. At the same time, you increase customer loyalty and your service revenues. Take advantage of these new opportunities!

The digitization of industry is advancing inexorably
For machine builders and service providers, the connected industry offers the opportunity to stay permanently in touch with the machine at the customer’s site and with the people who use it. This will give rise to numerous combinations of the machine, classic services and digital services that enable the operator to use the machine more efficiently.
Companies must face up to these changes to ensure their future viability.
Accept the challenge and secure your future.
Pragmatic solutions and mechanical engineering consulting
Digitization in mechanical engineering enables an entirely new user experience in which a customer portal acts as a central business platform for information and services of all kinds. This not only relieves the burden on internal resources, but also directly provides the machine operator with the services he needs in the given situation.

The customer portal as a central customer interface also serves to provide numerous other mobile apps or digital services that integrate seamlessly (meaning, for example, without a new login) into the user experience.
A decisive factor in the development of Industrie 4.0 solutions is a consistent and future-proof architecture that is above all flexible with regard to future further developments. This is important because, on the one hand, the range of digital services is constantly evolving, while at the same time, however, the collected digital data must remain consistent over time.
