Smart Manufacturing
When it comes to a standardized and intelligent system for smart manufacturing, Abat is the first point of contact. The company offers the design and implementation of smart manufacturing solutions. It was precisely this expertise that prompted Huawei to work with Abat.
At the Hannover Messe, Abat and the Chinese company Huawei presented their collaboration on a project as part of the newly founded OpenLab Ismaning. The aim is to create a model factory there that demonstrates how an overall concept consisting of infrastructure and software for digital production can work.
Using a showcase, visitors were able to experience in advance how the future-oriented solution works. For example, gateways are connected between systems and MES in order to offer the operations management level a uniform and standardized view of the systems.
In a presentation, Abat Managing Director Peter Grendel explained the project and then officially signed the contract together with Fan Ruigi, Vice President Marketing and Solution Sales Dept. at Huawei.
