OI4 Demonstrator wins Implementation Award

The Open Industry 4.0 Demonstrator project at the Flow Center of Excellence at the Duurzaamheidsfabriek in Dordrecht was awarded the Open Industry 4.0 Alliance Implementation Award.

The OI4 Demonstrator uses the Open Industry 4.0 Alliance guidelines to demonstrate the feasibility of improved interoperability in process industry and shows how device data, diagnostics and prognostics can be communicated easily, open and efficiently through the automation pyramid – from field devices to cloud.

The project, supported by Innovation Quarter under the SMITZH program, is realized with OI4 members and non-member companies, specifically with:  Pepperl&Fuchs, , Samson, M&M Software, Krohne, CodeWrights, UReason, da Vinci College, Duurzaamheidsfabriek, FOCUS-ON, and  and Flow Center of Excellence . But also involves hardware of other OI4 members.

The partners in the OI4 demonstrator are realising the Open Industry 4.0 Alliance Development Guidelines to demonstrate the feasibility of improved interoperability in industry. Showing how device data, diagnostics and prognostics can be communicated effectively and efficiently parallel to the traditional automation pyramid.
