Iot Platform Solution for Manufacturing That Connect the Manufacturing Site and Management Through Data Manufacturing Solutions to Support End-to-End Optimization FEATURED ARTICLES of the Value Chain IoT Platform Solution for Manufacturing that Connect the Manufacturing Site and Management through Data While initiatives utilizing the IoT are on the rise in the manufacturing industry worldwide, many challenges must be overcome in adopting the IoT. Hitachi Digital Supply Chain/IoT is a solution that Hitachi supplies for facilitating the construction of IoT environments at manufacturing sites. This article looks at the challenges and solutions involved in adopting the IoT. The solutions presented are driven by data and by IoT platforms. Data- driven solutions are implemented by compiling the process flows used to collect data from the manufacturing site’s devices and systems, and using the data at manufacturing sites. IoT platform solutions help improve production eff iciency through systemwide optimization. Shigenori Tanaka Kazuhiro Koura Motoki Suzuki Manabu Naganuma collaborative creation with customers, had grown to 203(1) by the end of March 2017. 1.
