How to go from digitalisation to intelligent machines in manufacturing
This infographic is a visual representation of the journey explained in the Industrial IoT maturity model. Follow these steps in your journey from digitalisation to intelligent machines to successfully implement Industry 4.0 in your enterprise. An Industrial IoT platform, like IXON Cloud, can help you during each stage of your journey. 
The journey from digitalisation to intelligent machines
Computerisation
It starts when industrial machines and operations are controlled by software via PLCs, Sensors, Cobots and HMI screens.
Connectivity
Devices are connected to the internet and made accessible from outside the factory. Secure VPN access and web platforms make remote control and maintenance of machines more efficient.
Data Analyses
Machine data are collected and stored securely in the cloud. A data strategy is set out to visualize and analyse data for machine and process improvements.
Predictive Capacity
Sophisticated analytics lead to best-practice patterns, and are used to inform service and operation teams when the need for machine maintenance is near or if operations are down.
Adaptability
Connected services and integrated platforms result in smart capabilities like machine learning and artificial intelligence.
The road to IIoT Maturity
This white paper consists of 20 pages of concrete next steps in the Industrial IoT journey and real-life examples on how to successfully implement IIoT as a machine manufacturer.
