PLC-to-Cloud IIoT Integration for Automotive Supplier

The Challenge

An automotive parts supplier needed to track OEE across 50 CNC machines to identify bottlenecks. They wanted a scalable, cloud-based solution that didn't require massive on-premise server infrastructure.

Existing Environment

50 CNC machines with various controllers (Siemens, Fanuc) and limited network connectivity.

The Solution

Krezup deployed edge gateways running custom data collection scripts. These gateways communicated natively with the CNC controllers, standardized the data, and pushed it securely via MQTT to an AWS-hosted IoT platform for real-time dashboarding and analytics.

Results & Outcomes

  • Identified hidden downtime causing a 15% loss in capacity.
  • Deployed the entire solution without disrupting production.
  • Provided global visibility to stakeholders across 3 different time zones.
