SIG combiLink information management solution

SIG’s combiLink is a single and flexible information management solution for filling line operation.

By connecting every machine in a filling line, the system collects unlimited data and shows it in preconfigured or personally designed reports. Users can view charts showing operational and technical efficiency and view downtime incidents from their desktops, tablets or smartphones. Smart notifications can alert the team to incidents, avoiding bottlenecks and costly downtime.

The smart factory solution offers a new way of monitoring and analysing the efficiency and productivity of a filling line, enabling customers to take on-time decisions fast and to optimise operations.

Producers get a single end-to-end window to view current and historical levels of efficiency and performance, while also seeing where improvements can be made in the future. Its connectivity is based on the latest industrial communication standard OMAC, enabling it to collect unlimited data over OPC UA technology from every machine and store it securely.

It can also send out data to MES, ERP and other business intelligence systems. Its open architecture and standards-based interface connect easily to third-party applications such as cloud-based systems and predictive analysis tools. This two-way communication enables unlimited operation applications with the option of customer plug-ins.
