The US Census Bureau maintains a very meticulous list of industry categories, known as the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). This is recognized as the definitive guide to understanding who falls into which category — be it copper, nickel, lead, and zinc mining; or dog and cat food manufacturing; or sports and recreation instruction. But what happens when every company becomes a technology company? It may become more difficult to pigeonhole an organization into a single category.

CEDES and relayr have launched a joint solution, uniting CEDES’ IoT-enabling light curtain cegard/Smart with relayr’s predictive maintenance solution SKYLER Elevate.

The business of customer service, lifecycle solutions, and spare parts has become an imperative for manufacturers from across all industries. Companies that focus on aftersales and services outperform their peers in terms of profit and resilience in times of crisis.

As industries change rapidly, Equipment as a Service (EaaS) offers an innovative way for industrial companies to increase their production capacity and easily scale by adding new machines. EaaS allows customers to purchase the performance of machines or production systems rather than the machine itself.

In this model, the customer pays exclusively for productive industrial performance, i.e., for the number of printed sheets. The price includes software, all necessary consumables, and service. The packaging manufacturer WEIG Packaging GmbH & Co. KG concluded a further subscription contract as part of the cooperation at the beginning of 2023 to grow its business.

Die gegenwärtige Wirtschaftslage stellt nationale und internationale Unternehmen vor vielschichtige Herausforderungen. Angefangen bei steigenden Kosten für Energie und Rohstoffe über anfällige globale Lieferketten bis hin zu Materialknappheit. Wie ein aus der Servitization abgeleitetes Geschäftsmodell mögliche Risiken minimiert beschreibt Jonas Daberkow, Director Equipment-as-a-Service Solution bei Relayr, in seinem Gastbeitrag.

In this installment of What Works, learn how new business models could change the face of maintenance.

With the ongoing servitization of the machine and equipment manufacturing sector, decision-makers in the German manufacturing industry are increasingly turning to Equipment-as-a-Service (EaaS) as a viable sales and business model for the future.

Im Zuge der fortschreitenden Servitization (https://www.produktion.de/technik/servitization-hype-oder-must-305.html) im Maschinen- und Anlagenbau setzen Entscheider der deutschen Fertigungsindustrie verstärkt auf Equipment-as-a-Service (EaaS) als zukunftsfähiges Vertriebs- und Geschäftsmodell. Das verdeutlicht die jetzt veröffentlichte Studie des IIoT-Unternehmens Relayr (https://relayr.io/de/unternehmen/), ein Unternehmen der Munich Re Group, in Kooperation mit dem Marktforschungsinstitut Forsa. Maschinenbauunternehmen, die sich bereits mit EaaS befassen, entscheiden sich mit eindrucksvoller Mehrheit für eine Umsetzung des Modells (80 Prozent). Mehr als die Hälfte (61Prozent) der Maschinenbauer, die aktuell ein EaaS-Modell entwickeln, plant den Entwicklungsstart schon innerhalb der kommenden 12 Monate. Drei Viertel aller Befragten sind dabei auf die Unterstützung externer Partner angewiesen.

Is there an alternative to the traditional purchase of machines that enables growth and resilience? Subscription-based models, common in the software industry, are now becoming increasingly popular across industries. Equipment as a Service is an example of a subscription business model in which equipment is provided for a fee that includes maintenance and other value-added services.

Used across industries, rotating equipment is mission-critical in manufacturing. From compressors to pumps to motors, plant profitability revolves around equipment productivity. That’s why reliability is essential. Rotating equipment users employ condition monitoring strategies to observe the health of machinery components and keep unexpected breakdowns to a minimum by making repairs or replacements before failures occur.

The adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) impacts every economic sector – from manufacturing to healthcare, from smart cities to retailers.

What is it about the Industrial Internet of Things that’s so special? The fact that it’s a technological revolution? Or that it brings us closer to the future? Or that it builds a world in which machines can carry out all the tasks humans cannot?
