Architecture and integration

Connect the sewing floor without disrupting production.

IntelliFactory combines external machine interfaces, edge processing, wireless data communication and secure role-based software. The final design is confirmed against your machines, network and existing systems.

Deployment data path

Five layers from machine signal to factory action.

Every layer has a defined operational responsibility and can be reviewed with production, engineering and IT.

  1. 01

    Machine interface

    External sensors and the interface module capture approved machine signals without changing internal control wiring.

  2. 02

    Edge processing

    The station processes activity locally and retains data when upstream connectivity is interrupted.

  3. 03

    Factory network

    Machine data is carried wirelessly using a deployment design confirmed for the factory layout.

  4. 04

    IntelliFactory platform

    The platform stores telemetry, applies analytics and makes role-based dashboards and alerts available.

  5. 05

    Customer systems

    Approved data is exchanged with ERP, MES or production systems through APIs and agreed interfaces.

Loss of connectivity

Keep collecting when the internet does not.

A temporary internet interruption should not create a blind spot in the production record.

Collect

Machine activity continues to be captured at the edge.

Store

Available local storage retains data during the interruption.

Synchronize

Stored records are sent to the platform after connectivity returns.

Security and control

Protect the deployment from device to dashboard.

The implementation scope includes device, transport, user and operational-data controls.

Device identity

Each deployed device is provisioned and associated with an approved factory, line and machine record.

Encrypted transmission

Operational data is encrypted while it moves between the deployment and platform.

Role-based access

Factory management, production, IE, maintenance and supervisors receive scoped access.

Remote updates

Supported firmware and platform updates can be managed without replacing the installed hardware.

Offline resilience

Edge collection continues during internet interruption and synchronizes stored data after recovery.

Data ownership

Customer ownership and permitted operational-data use are defined in the commercial agreement.

Integration approach

Fit IntelliFactory around the systems your factory already uses.

Integration can be provided through APIs and agreed data interfaces after the existing ERP, MES, attendance, order and reporting sources are reviewed.

Factory assessment checklist

  • Machine types, controller variants and available external power
  • Machine count, line layout and physical mounting constraints
  • Factory network coverage and internet resilience
  • Operator, operation, line and order master-data sources
  • ERP, MES or reporting interfaces required
  • User roles, access approval and retention requirements
  • Pilot success measures and baseline data availability
  • Installation windows, safety rules and production constraints
Technical review

Confirm compatibility before deployment.

Share your machine types, factory layout, network conditions and existing production systems. The engineering team will return a recommended pilot architecture and installation scope.
