“Thanks to Big‑LinX® we can make our service much more efficient.”
By evaluating machine and system data through remote access, maintenance work can be scheduled effectively and organisational complexities reduced significantly.
With the one-click connection option, you can put machines into operation easily and respond quickly to any problems that occur during commissioning.
With our China connection service, you can access machines in China securely and with no restrictions using tried-and-tested, reliable technology.
Thanks to the option for customised configuration in the factory, Big‑LinX® can create a genuine plug&play experience.
With Big‑LinX®, you can save your service employees from having to make dangerous journeys into areas where there is currently a high risk of coronavirus by providing them with a versatile maintenance tool.
"Implementing Big‑LinX® into the terminal makes it possible for us to support our customers and partners fully, easily, reliably and as fast as possible. ADS-TEC is the ideal partner for us, as it has always adapted to our requirements flexibly ever since we began working together"
„Thanks to Big‑LinX® and the ADS-TEC firewall, we are able to grant the remote capability of our producer plants for solid wood processing machines, independent of the operating system. Even with outdated operating systems it is possible to provide remote service by our experts without material risks for the customer network. This as well will contribute to further reduce downtimes for our customers in the future. With the Big-LinX portal we currently manage more than 1,800 plants and machines worldwide. The user control enables us to also provide decentralised service locations with access to plants/machines that are relevant. With ADS-TEC we have found a reliable, secure partner who gives us the chance to grant LifeTime Services. This is one of many building blocks on our way to a continuous digitalisation of the service experience for our customers and installed base.“
"Thanks to Big‑LinX® we are able to check in advance which spare parts are required for a service job."
„Thanks to Big‑LinX® we can significantly accelerate the response time and the initial diagnosis on the target system. The downtimes in the event of a malfunction are considerably reduced. If the cause of the malfunction is clearly localised and it is purely a software problem, it can be sol-ved via Big‑LinX® / X‑Remote. By analysing the data via Big‑LinX® LinX of the target system the possible initial deployment of the service technician can be planned and executed in a targeted manner.“
„Our „smart“ ALLROUNDER injection moulding machines are able to „communicate“ as they have Basic Connnectivity with an IIoT-Gateway from ADS-TEC. This enables the provision of process and production data to higher-level software tools and platforms like the ARBURG host computer system ALS or the customer portal arburgXworld. In addition, the remote access to our machines takes place via a secure and encrypted connection. By saying that Big‑LinX® contributes immensely in shortening the response times. Our customers receive a fast, efficient and secure online support from our ARBURG experts in an event of problems.“
„Big‑LinX® enables us to monitor our globally distributed battery modules, store their lifecycle data as a digital twin and distirubte software updates to our storage systems and charging infrastructure facilities.“
With the Big‑LinX® IIoT platform, manufacturers and operators of machines and systems as well as Industry 4.0 service providers have a powerful modular application system at their disposal for various IIoT requirements.
