Digitalization, Data, and Intelligent Networking: Industrial IoT and Industry 4.0
Digitalization and smart networking: These are the core components of Industrial IoT and Industry 4.0. We enable your company to achieve greater efficiency, more flexible production and thus more satisfied customers and greater growth potential through the intelligent networking of machines and processes.
The digitalization of processes in tan industrial environment requires a rethinking of existing IT structures in many places. In addition to traditional system integration and automation, your company needs innovative concepts that are specifically tailored to the requirements of your industry, because the digital transformation in industry presents your company with special challenges:
High complexity of existing systems
Stringent security requirements due to sensitive data and processes
Low fault tolerance due to high production stoppage costs
Combining and integrating old technologies with modern IT systems
Regulatory requirements for industrial processes
High costs of implementation due to the complexity of existing systems
At codecentric, we have been working with companies in the industrial sector for many years and therefore know your requirements very well – and we will find individual solutions for you that will solve your challenges over the long term. We will support you every step of the way on your journey (of digitalization) to Industry 4.0, from digital monitoring and the control of manufacturing processes to the application of artificial intelligence in the production environment.
The benefits of smart production for your business
No matter what product your company makes: you can continuously improve your business model with a sustainable digitalization strategy. Digital processes not only make your business more efficient, but also boost your flexibility as well as customer satisfaction. The benefits to you at a glance:
- Greater efficiency in your processes at less cost and fewer resources
- Improved workflows through transparency in your processes
- Happier customers due to more flexible production with enhanced product personalization
- Higher quality through the use of artificial intelligence
- Enhanced sustainability for your company thanks to a smart digitalization strategy
- Improved competitiveness for your business through faster adaptability to changing conditions

How we solve your production and manufacturing challenges
Industrial IoT and Industry 4.0 stand for the intelligent use of data and AI as well as the digital networking of machines and processes in industry. We support you in your digitalization transformation to ensure that your company is not left behind in the digitalization process. The topics we can advise you on include:
Advanced data analytics
Building your IIoT infrastructure
Digital shop floor management
Advanced data analytics
Companies that have already largely digitized their processes are wondering how they can further optimize their products and processes. This is where data science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence come into play. Would you like to see some examples? Predicting quality characteristics, predictive maintenance and automated visual quality controls are just a few of the examples of how AI and data science methods are now generating real added value. We will work with you to evaluate meaningful use of artificial intelligence and machine learning in your company and support you in implementing it.
This is what we can do for you:
- Optical quality assurance
- Bad forecasts
- Machine learning operations (MLOps)
Building your IIoT infrastructure
In recent years, many industrial companies have begun to break through the barriers in the classic automation pyramid using IIoT solutions. However, operationalizing and replicating often presents a costly and time-consuming barrier. We can use our IIoT expertise and extensive technology kit to help you take a holistic approach to IIoT infrastructure and get it off the ground, while always keeping operationalization in mind.
This is what we can do for you:
- Scaling of existing proof-of-concept (POC) for productive operations
- Strategic planning of large IIoT projects
- Implementation of asset and device management
- A DevOps approach also for local IoT solutions
Digital shop floor management
The most important steps in the digital future of manufacturing are to digitally map and control production processes. However, traditional IT infrastructures are reaching their limits because interactions on the shop floor are complex and decentralized. In collaboration with a strong partner network, we rethink the way manufacturing processes are orchestrated. We will digitalize and automate your manufacturing processes quickly, flexibly and cost-effectively.
This is what we can do for you:
- Mobile worker assistance systems to simplify and make transparent setup or maintenance processes
- Detailed OEE determination
- Digitalization of maintenance processes
- Incident management systems
