In order to enable Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs)
migrate to Industry 4.0 version, engineering major Robert Bosch Engineering and
Business Solutions Ltd on Friday unveiled an intelligent platform called
'Phantom'.
"The Phantom platform makes SMEs use
advanced data analytics, machine learning and automation for switching over to
Industry 4.0 version," said the subsidiary of German industrial behemoth
Bosch GmbH at a tech event in Bangaluru.
The platform supports SMEs to draw digital roadmaps for manufacturing plants,
machine intelligence and energy analytics.
"Phantom improves the efficiency of the SMEs with a retrofit solution
installed in a machine, gathers production patterns and provides insights on
its usage, benchmarks, trends, losses and best practices," said company
Vice President K. Swaminathan at its preview at the Bengaluru Tech Summit.
"Each entrepreneur will have a dedicated portal to catalogue his journey,
knowledge and his position in the industry through the platform
benchmarks," said Swaminathan.
The digital solution provides consulting and advisory support for SMEs to be on
par with industry practices, access frameworks, methodologies, processes and
tools.
"Phantom will help SMEs jump start their digital transformation. Our
vision is to provide smart solutions to the SMEs," company Managing
Director Vijay Ratnaparkhe said.
As an ecosystem on the cloud and on-premise for manufacturing efficiency,
real-time alerts and notifications for actionable insights, the platform's
portal and dashboard offers visibility of factory operations, worker
productivity and machine effectiveness.
"Phantom automates data capture and provides timely, bias-free, accurate
data that form the basis for managers to set targets, track performance,
analyse and improve on a continuous basis," said Ratnaparkhe.
Terming the platform that lasts for a product lifecycle, company's digital labs
head Uday Prabhu said the benefits of the Industry 4.0 version would be
realised after a seamless integration of the value stream, including partners
such as suppliers and logistics providers.
"SMEs can get on the platform and pace their shift to Industry 4.0 and
strive for global competitiveness in cost and quality," said company Vice
President Dattatri Salagame.
The platform has been designed for multiple industries to go digital through
customised advisory sessions, consulting workshops and a content rich portal.
