We empower you to deliver results

Embrace and extend the automation you have today by adding Industrial AI. Attack common productivity challenges out of the box and enable faster, more automated decision-making at all levels of the organization.

Autonomous Operations

Enable autonomous operations

There are multiple steps in the journey towards the autonomous plant. Get started quickly and easily with pre-built solutions that deliver value at each step.

Next-Level Efficiency

Deliver next-level efficiency

Tracking metrics is one thing. Driving improvements around those metrics in a repeatable way is another. TwinThread gives you the tools and capabilities to modernize your Continuous Improvement process with Digital Twins and Industrial AI.

Legacy MES

Turbo-charge your legacy MES

Add uptime, throughput, and quality optimization directly on top of your MES. Don’t stop at tracking performance; add Industrial AI to evolve into a self-optimizing plant.

MES Lite

Don't have an MES yet?

Deploy MES “Lite” first using TwinThread. Use Digital Twins and Industrial AI to go beyond just measuring OEE and optimize every component with autonomous recommendations.

Best Operator-Best Run

Make every operator your best operator and every run your best run

No more “little black books” kept by your most experienced operators. Fully digitize recipes, centerlines, and operating practices. Apply Industrial AI to continuously optimize so everyone delivers consistent results.

Historian Value

Profit from all the data in your historian

The more you use your historian data, the more you wish you could do even more. Integrating TwinThread with your historian means you can apply cutting-edge, automated analytics across all your data. All you need to bring is your process expertise; we’ll automate the rest.

Optimize Batching

Optimize batching like never before

Take the “golden batch” concept to the next level with Industrial AI. Optimize yield, quality, cycle time, and phase-level control with a level of fidelity and automation never before possible.

QMS-1

Extend your Quality Management System to create a modern Quality Optimization System

There’s no need to replace your legacy Quality Management System. Integrate TwinThread to add Industrial AI capabilities that create a clear path to autonomous control of multiple quality objectives.

Predictive Maintenance-1

Deploy an “open and scalable” predictive maintenance strategy

Too many alternatives lock you into vendor-specific sensors and data ownership conflicts. Apply TwinThread on top of your existing data and multiple vendors’ sensors. Effortlessly combine asset, process, and vibration data with scalable Industrial AI to create a complete picture of asset health and stay ahead of failure modes.

Energy Intensity

Attack all elements of energy intensity

Optimize all plant utilities across Water, Air, Gas, Electricity, and Steam. Apply Industrial AI across energy sources, energy consumers, and energy converters within the plant to create a complete picture of Energy Intensity. Easily integrate that data with your enterprise sustainability efforts.

Industrial Data Fabric

Enable an open Industrial Data Fabric

We open up proprietary edge and cloud data sources and integrate them seamlessly with your preferred open Industrial Data Fabric. Use TwinThread to optimize cloud costs by intelligently optimizing Gold, Silver, and Bronze consumption.

Enterprise Process Expert

Leverage process expertise across your enterprise

Create, automate, and scale monitoring rules and actions for a single plant or for hundreds of plants simultaneously. Apply your domain expertise efficiently to maximize value across the enterprise.

Virtual Operations Center

Implement a Virtual Operations Center to scale benefits further

Manage improvement initiatives, cases, alerts, and monitoring at scale using TwinThread’s Virtual Operations Center.

We understand how to scale

Over 30 years of experience in industrial automation and a track record of delivering some of the most highly-scaled IoT and Analytics solutions in the world have taught us what it takes to fully realize the benefits of Industrial AI.

Scaling Skills With AI: Empowering your scarcest and most valuable resource

Go beyond insights

Insights without action are worthless. TwinThread gives you everything you need to fully operationalize Industrial AI in your organization. Move from raw data to action on a single production line or across all plants in your enterprise with ease.

What is “operationalization"?

The process of turning insights into action.

Raw industrial data flows into the Digital Twin which produces curated data used for an AI Model that results in a recommendation to improve a work process and achieve a result.
