Why should you use Ascon Automation?
IT/OT Integration – Networking Efficiency: Facilitate interaction between previously siloed system components through process orchestration. Let digital twins support with significant parts of production automation, eliminating protocol and control logic barriers.
Process Standardization: Standardize and harmonize processes for higher flexibility and enhanced efficiency, so you can respond faster to changing market conditions.
Data Sync: Benefit from highly parallel and event-driven data processing, which lets you gain deep insights into your live production.
Digital Information Continuity: Capture, process, analyze and exchange information about a physical object or system seamlessly and continuously throughout its lifecycle. Share data between systems and applications, including AI, sourced from sensors, IoT devices, production, or maintenance activities.
Gain Resilience: With flexible and intelligent shop floor orchestration you increase resilience to internal and external market conditions. Smart production planning increases flexibility.
Our mission is to enable the future of manufacturing by increasing production flexibility and making room for intelligent decisions, whether human or AI.“
The Features
What’s inside the Automation Technology?
Process Orchestration
Ascon Automation helps you to standardize your OT landscape, to become independent of hardware lock-ins, and to connect it to your IT services. You gain an integrated system that lets data and information flow and allows processes to be optimized. By removing the production process control from the PLCs and lifting it into Ascon Qube technology, you enable smart production, where machinery and processes can easily be adjusted.
Orchestration configuration
Effortlessly model and map production processes and digital twins. Seamlessly integrate behavior, planning, and connectivity levels of different systems, production lines and machinery into one UI, and map out production processes to ensure smooth execution based on specified conditions.
Extend & Customize
Web-based, low-code functionality for crafting and managing behavioral models. Seamlessly create intricate models defining the flow of control and information, serving as the backbone for configuring and executing complex systems. Experience streamlined model management with a dedicated model repository, empowering you to drive efficiency and innovation in your processes like never before.
Digital Twins
Ascon Digital Twin technology is a virtual representation of a physical object, process, or system that enables you to optimize and orchestrate production processes. It mirrors the real-world counterpart in near real time, using data from sensors, IoT devices, and other sources to simulate its behavior, performance, and characteristics. Digital twins enable analysis, prediction, and optimization, empowering users to improve and automate the physical entity, leading to enhanced efficiency, flexibility, and resilience.
