Introduction
Manufacturing environments often rely on disconnected systems and manual data collection, leading to inefficiencies and limited visibility. This case highlights how a foundry implemented a digital platform to integrate systems, improve data collection, and enhance operational efficiency. The initiative focused on creating a unified data layer across production processes to enable better monitoring and control.
