Smart Manufacturing
To bring this vision to life, we offer smart manufacturing solutions on three levels: Smart Machine, Smart Line and Smart Factory. In these levels, each device plays a unique role, and together they create a solution that’s greater than the sum of its parts.
Smart sensors
Smart sensors and components are the backbone of a smart factory, enabling real-time data exchange for predictive maintenance and improved efficiency.
Back to Smart Maintenance
Smart maintenance provides self-explanatory maintenance information in the machinery at sensor level, notification module and remote connectivity.
Smart automation
Smart motion control, powered by OMRON’s PLC and motion simulation tools, enables agile and precise production. By simulating and adjusting in real-time, you can streamline setup and reduce errors.
Smart integration from controller to software with Sysmac Platform
Sysmac is OMRON's all-in-one automation platform, uniting control, motion, safety, vision, and networking with seamless integration and efficiency.
Rewind and resolve unexpected issues with Automation Playback
Resolve unexpected machine failures with the NX5 Controller, featuring the innovative Automation Playback function and keep operations running smoothly.
24/7 machine monitoring with Vision Factory Recorder
A 24/7 machine monitoring solution, the Factory Drive Recorder software and hardware package records live video before the defect occurs so that process engineers can review and rectify the error.
Turn data into meaningful information with i-BELT Data Services
Link production and management challenges with manufacturing data to solve your production challenges. OMRON is your co-creation partner for continuous improvement.
Optimized workflow and AMR fleet management
