挑战
SICK AG, a global provider of modern sensor technology, has experienced significant growth, leading to an increase in the heterogeneity of the company’s IT environment. With over 40 subsidiaries, numerous sales agencies, and partnerships, ensuring seamless communication between the different IT systems was crucial to guarantee smooth operations and customer satisfaction. The company needed a solution that could integrate the various IT systems from procurement to production, logistics to sales, and handle the increasing volumes of data being exchanged.
解决方案
To achieve seamless communication between the different IT systems, SICK AG implemented webMethods integration technology in 2002. Since then, the company has introduced webMethods Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), (now called webMethods Integration Server), as well as webMethods Trading Networks for B2B integration. The company has also adopted webMethods Business Process Management Suite (BPMS) to increase flexibility in business process modeling. webMethods is the central data hub that runs the entire data exchange between the different internal and external IT systems from procurement to production, logistics to sales.

Remote Temperature Monitoring of Perishable Goods Saves Money
RMONI was facing temperature monitoring challenges in a cold chain business. A cold chain must be established and maintained to ensure goods have been properly refrigerated during every step of the process, making temperature monitoring a critical business function. Manual registration practice can be very costly, labor intensive and prone to mistakes.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
