In the automotive industry, at Ford—one of the leading companies in the sector—the Pro4 IoT Platform and the BoQP Quality System application were developed and implemented to monitor quality control points, collect measurement data (via PLC, manual input, or Excel import), classify results as OK/NOK based on defined quality criteria, perform advanced SPC analyses on measurement data, generate various types of reports, and support periodic reporting functions.

This project also serves as an example of the modular architecture of the Pro4 IoT Platform, where a new application specific to the paint shop process was developed on the platform.

The existing BoQP application running on the Pro4 IoT Platform efficiently collects measurement data from multiple sources within production processes. In this context, data acquisition is performed through:

Manual operator inputs
Bulk data uploads via Excel
Automatic data reading from PLC systems

The collected data is evaluated by the system according to defined specifications, generating OK / NOT OK results. Users can generate reports based on this data, export outputs, and perform advanced BI analytics.

Since its establishment in 1958, Kayalar Copper Alloys Industry and Trade Inc. has become one of Turkey’s leading companies in the production of copper and copper alloy sheets, strips, coins, and token products, with a strong focus on technological advancement and high-quality standards.

Within the scope of the Production and Energy Monitoring Project, the Pro4 IoT Platform was successfully implemented to monitor and report energy consumption values as well as rolling, furnace, and continuous casting processes. This comprehensive solution aims to improve operational efficiency and facilitate data-driven decision-making processes.

Dashboard, HMI, and KPI Applications:
Users can monitor production and energy data in real time. Dashboards enable rapid evaluation of operational performance, while HMI (Human-Machine Interface) applications provide operators with more intuitive control. KPI applications allow tracking of targeted performance indicators.

Live and Historical Data Analytics:
The Pro4 IoT Platform provides access to both real-time and historical data, enabling users to evaluate process performance and make improvement-oriented decisions.

Periodic Reporting:
The system automatically generates reports at defined intervals, enabling management and technical teams to analyze production processes. These reports serve as an important resource for strategic decision-making.

Rule-Based Early Warning Alerts:
The system generates early warning alarms using logical queries to detect potential bottlenecks. These alerts enable operators to respond quickly and take corrective actions.

At KNAUF, one of the leading companies in the mining sector, all energy consumption values and weighing (scale) data across the entire production process, including production and social areas, are monitored through our Pro4 IoT Platform.

In addition to the Pro4 IoT Platform, an automation system consisting of Siemens PLCs, along with energy meters and scale data acquisition infrastructure, has been successfully installed by our technical team at KNAUF.
