Connecting machines
Siemens, FANUC, Heidenhain, Allen-Bradley, OPC UA, Modbus and peripherals. No PLC programming, in the same form for every brand.
Industrial IoT platform for manufacturing
FactoryNebula shows in real time what your machines are doing, where time is lost and where the biggest gains are. Start with one machine and expand when you are ready.

The platform
One gateway reads all your machines, of every brand. On top of that you choose what you need, and you expand when you are ready.

Siemens, FANUC, Heidenhain, Allen-Bradley, OPC UA, Modbus and peripherals. No PLC programming, in the same form for every brand.

A real-time overview of all your machines: what is running, what is stopped and since when. On the shop floor and in the office.

Availability, performance and quality from machine data, with every number showing what it is based on. No percentage that rests on an assumption.

Every stop recorded automatically with start and duration. See which machines stop most often and for longest.

If this, then that, without programming. Respond to a signal, send a command or report an order complete.

Orders as a work list per machine, the drawing with the item and the completion report back to the office.
For the whole organisation
In most factories every department works with its own reports and its own assumptions. FactoryNebula brings machine and production data together in one reliable foundation.

Production
Direct insight into status, stops and OEE, without tally sheets. And respond automatically with workflows you create yourself.
Maintenance
See the time between failures per machine, and look back in the data analyser at what happened just before a breakdown. Set a limit and get warned earlier from then on.
Management
No OEE of 78% resting on an assumption. Every number shows what it is based on, and if something is missing, the dashboard tells you what.
IT / OT
Works without internet, read-only by default, roles and an audit log. Open standards and a database that any BI tool can read. Built for your supply chain assessment under NIS2.
Quality
Process data recorded automatically per product, code reader results stored and the lot number per order on the coding printer. Without manual input.
How it works
No big bang and no big IT project. One gateway, one machine, one dashboard, and then you grow from there.
01
The Voyager gateway goes into the cabinet next to your machines and reads the first machine. For reading, nothing changes in the PLC program.
02
Status, stops and parts per hour are available straight away. The OEE dashboard tells you itself what it still needs for the full OEE.
03
More machines, an ERP integration, workflows or document management: on the same gateway, with the same login.
Industries
From machining to food: wherever machines set the pace, downtime costs money.

Turning, milling and sheet metal

Lines, robots and assembly

Filling, packaging and process lines

Injection moulding, extrusion and composites

Your own production and machines at customers
In a personal demo we show how the platform works for your production, and what it takes to start with one machine.
