Analytics message sticks with robot’s fickle finger

Koenig & Bauer has launched its analytics product in a presentation at Google Cloud’s booth at the Hannover Messe.

The system – which has the goal of “near 100 per cent productivity for as many machines as possible” – was shown as a first working prototype. An official product release is planned for the northern autumn.          

The press maker says the analytics tool combines data from different sources, such as machine log files and data from existing MES and MIS systems, letting users create complex evaluations to gain a holistic understanding of their production processes.

K&B said a large number of representatives from leading manufacturers visited the Google Cloud booth, with a “lively exchange” of best practices taking place.

The maker caught attention at the industrial trade fair with a robot, its 4PL Cobot print and apply system (pictured) which can print and apply labels.
