Industry

One question across the whole plant

Your plant generates data every second, but it lives in systems that do not talk to each other. COGNITIV combines them inside your server, without a single piece of data leaving the plant.

Illustrative scenario

Plant knowledge is scattered across silos

ERP, MES, maintenance, quality and the judgement of veteran technicians: every answer means opening several systems and cross-checking them by hand. And sending that data to someone else's cloud is not an option, because that is where the manufacturing secrets are.

  • Hours every week cross-checking systems by hand
  • Errors from data that does not match across systems
  • Knowledge that leaves with every retirement or absence

How COGNITIV solves it

The orchestrator brings ERP, MES, quality, maintenance and documentation together in a searchable memory. You ask in natural language and the answer spans every source inside the plant's server.

  • VAULTData and permissions: protects manufacturing secrets
  • NEXUSAgents and memory: preserves the know-how of veterans
Which line 3 stoppages last quarter coincide with batches rejected by quality control?
Four of the six stoppages coincide with rejected batches. In all four, the maintenance report shows wear on the same bearing; the technician in charge recommended replacing it every 1,200 hours.

Before and after

Before

  • Opening several systems and cross-checking them by hand for every query
  • Sensitive data travelling to an external cloud
  • Veterans' judgement is lost with every departure

With COGNITIV

  • One question spans the whole operation
  • Data never leaves the plant perimeter
  • Know-how stays as a searchable memory

Know-how that never retires

When a technician with thirty years on the plant floor retires, their judgement should not leave with them. NEXUS turns that know-how (how a fault is diagnosed, how a line is adjusted) into a company memory that can be consulted.
