Solution	The EMS company turned to Advantech for a solution. Advantech provided a solutions package featuring its unrivaled asset monitoring technology. The package included Advantech’s SRP-FPV220 and WISE-4000 solutions for data integration and production optimization. The SRP-FPV220 package, featuring Advantech’s WebAccess/SCADA software, allows data from shop floor devices to be easily collected via various communication protocols, such as Modbus, OPC UA, and MQTT. The data is then used to generate automatic Excel reports of production activities. The platform’s 100% web-based dashboard allows users to view visual production information, such as yield rate trends, equipment utilization, and downtime alarms, at any time via an HTML5 browser on any desktop or mobile device. Advantech’s WISE-4000 series of wireless sensing devices can be easily integrated with the solution-ready platform. These devices allow manufacturers to collect real-time data of key production line parameters for monitoring and precisely controlling operations. Read More Log in to view content
