iFactory > iFactory EAM Solution
Equipment Automation Management Solution
Maximize Machine Reliability and Performance
Data-Driven Asset Management
In compliance with ISO 55000 asset management standards, machine data is analyzed for insights to improve decision-making, increase efficiency, facilitate preventive maintenance, and maximize investment in physical assets.
Real-Time Analytics
The multi-tenant platform leverages numerous I.Apps for AI-based status monitoring and real-time analytics to obtain actionable insights and KPIs, such as machine OEE, to enable smarter decision making based on real data.
Centralized Decision Making
All data is collected and processed using the iFactory EAM data platform. This allows all machines to be managed from a centralized command center for unified responsiveness, rapid decision making, and optimized performance.
In the industrial sector, factory assets represent a large proportion of an enterprise’s key resources. Therefore, ensuring reliable machine operation is essential for producing quality products at a consistent pace. Advantech’s iFactory EAM (Equipment Automation Management) solution combines various software, systems, and services that are designed to maximize the lifecycle and performance of factory assets. In addition to providing machine KPIs, iFactory EAM solution supports order management, asset maintenance, planning and scheduling, real-time alert notifications, mobile management, and quality monitoring. Moreover, with the integration of modular iFactory industrial applications (I.Apps), iFactory EAM solution can be used to optimize operations, increase asset utilization, and maximize productivity.
