Unlock the Power of Your Process Data
Transform your injection molding operations with seamless data integration and actionable insights.
Welcome to the future of data management!
The Hub Connect bridges the gap between your process data and operational data, enabling you to make informed, data-driven decisions. Our cutting-edge software utilizes the OPC-UA protocol, ensuring fast and secure data extraction and integration with your existing ERP/MES systems.
The Challenge: Data Silos and Accessibility
Non-Standard Formats
Data from injection molding machines often comes in non-standard formats, making it difficult to integrate with existing business systems like ERP or MES. This lack of standardization hinders the ability to analyze data across different machines and operations.
Critical Data Accessibility
The data generated by injection molding machines may be stored in proprietary systems with limited access points. This restricts the flow of information to other departments and stakeholders, hindering real-time insights and decision-making.
Integration Challenges
Integrating non-standard data from multiple machines into business systems can be complex and time-consuming, requiring specialized expertise and resources.
The Solution: The Hub Connect® Data Integration
