Solutions
SMS’s 6IX Solution’s (Smart Industrial Transformation) contain 6 core components including, Sensors, Gateways, Monitoring, Alerts, Analytics, and Cloud. The combination of hardware, software, and service components have been tested and validated to meet almost all of our client’s needs. 6IX is delivered as industry or equipment solutions, such as 6IX for Robot Signature Analysis, Machine Tool Operation, Building Management, and Agriculture.
These pre-built 6IX solutions allow us to onboard clients quickly and efficiently, delivering a true time-to-value solution. Splunk’s Edge Hub device enables rapid deployment at the machine level, offering the ability to connect and analyze data from CNC machines and other tools that have historically been hard to reach. The Edge Hub can interface with existing machine controllers, deploy edge computing, and push machine performance and condition data into analytic platforms, such as Splunk Enterprise. It’s built in sensors provide additional context, such as environmental conditions, which can help correlate with machine issues. This capability is crucial and allows us to connect to more machines, capture more operational data, and deliver deeper insights into machine performance and maintenance.
