Production status – transparent, location independent & proactive

Intelligent monitoring in production ensures a transparent view of the current production status, so it’s always clear what is happening in the process, where, how, and why. STIWA Shopfloor Software solutions provide location-independent access to real-time data. A proactive notification system keeps you instantly informed about messages and machine malfunctions, enabling you to react promptly to every event.

Transparency and secure decisions on your Shopfloor

• Visualization and traceability of the production processes
• Machine and quality status available at any time
• Active notification for shortest response times

Optimization of the Shopfloor

Comprehensive analysis options ensure transparent production across the entire lifecycle of your equipment. STIWA Shopfloor Software solutions support you from machine construction to machine ramp-up, enabling not only a shorter machine ramp-up but also a continuous and sustainable increase in productivity, regardless of location.

Our goal is to achieve production excellence in all areas, including performance efficiency, availability, and quality, together with our customers. In addition to a wide range of predefined analysis paths, the web-based products also include editors for designing custom views, dashboards, and analysis paths.

From machine operators to management, our customers consistently maintain control over their production processes and know what to do tomorrow to sustain and expand their competitive advantage.

ShopfloorBI and Analytics for sustainable increase of productivity

• Increase of productivity & OOE
• Quality increase and reduction of rejects
• Shortening of the ramp-up phase of new machines and plants

Manufacturer-independent standardization, maximum process reliability

With the STIWA control station software, machines can be visualised and controlled independently of the manufacturer and control system. Data-driven decision-making and full data transparency, directly at the production machine, ensure smooth and efficient operations.

The modular, flexible control centre, the cockpit for machines, covers everything from order management to process and type control. A consistent, user-friendly interface reduces training and maintenance effort. SCADA functions, on-the-fly setup (type changeover without emptying the machine), a virtual data pill for lossless tracking of parts and component data, and comprehensive recipe management with integrated type and release management all contribute to maximum process reliability and efficiency on the shopfloor.

Multi-vendor control station for reliable processes for heterogeneous machine parks

• Updatable control station/control system for all machines and production lines
• Central and continuous recipe management
• Fast setup & integration of new types

CONNECT: The Digital Bridge for Your Production – Manufacturer-Independent Connectivity, Maximum Data Transparency

CONNECT forms the backbone of the STIWA ecosystem. It enables manufacturer-independent connection of machines, from individual standalone devices to highly complex lines. By standardizing data from diverse sources (OT/IT) such as machines, sensors, ERP, and MES, CONNECT provides real-time insights into your production processes. This comprehensive data collection (MDA/PDA/QDA) forms the basis for STIWA CONTROL and OPTIMIZE.

Standardized interfaces (e.g., OPC UA, ProfiNet) and the proven MaCo interface ensure smooth and reliable data communication. CONNECT enables seamless Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication for global connectivity and efficient data exchange. Whether brownfield or greenfield, Flexible connectors seamlessly integrate older systems and state-of-the-art IoT technologies, enabling gradual digitalization with minimal investment.

We pick up the data where it originates. Connecting What Matters
