Project Overview

Developed an enterprise-grade Industrial IoT platform for a leading German manufacturing company with operations across multiple countries. This comprehensive solution monitors and optimizes a fleet of 2,500+ industrial vehicles and 850+ manufacturing equipment pieces, collecting real-time telemetry from sensors, applying advanced machine learning for predictive maintenance, and providing actionable insights through intuitive dashboards and mobile applications.

The Challenge

The client faced significant operational challenges with their distributed manufacturing operations: limited visibility into equipment performance across facilities, reactive maintenance approaches leading to unexpected downtime costing โ‚ฌ2M monthly, inefficient resource allocation and route planning, and compliance difficulties with environmental and safety regulations across multiple European markets. Manual monitoring processes were labor-intensive and error-prone.

Our Solution

Built a scalable IoT platform that ingests sensor data via MQTT protocols, stores time-series data in InfluxDB for optimal performance, and uses advanced machine learning models to predict equipment failures 2-4 weeks in advance. Created real-time dashboards for operations managers, mobile applications for field technicians, and automated alert systems with intelligent routing. Integrated with existing SAP systems and implemented comprehensive APIs for third-party integrations.

Technology Stack

Node.js microservices architecture for backend systems
React-based responsive web dashboards with real-time updates
InfluxDB for high-performance time-series data storage
Grafana for advanced visualization and alerting
MQTT brokers for efficient IoT device communication
TensorFlow and scikit-learn for predictive maintenance ML models
Apache Kafka for real-time data streaming and processing
PostgreSQL for relational data and configuration management
Redis for high-performance caching and session management
Docker containerization with Kubernetes orchestration
Prometheus and Elasticsearch for comprehensive monitoring

Key Achievements

Process 75M+ sensor readings daily with 99.8% accuracy
Reduced unplanned equipment downtime by 47% year-over-year
Achieved 91% accuracy in predicting maintenance needs
Generated โ‚ฌ8.5M annual savings through optimization
Improved fuel efficiency by 33% across vehicle fleet
Increased average equipment lifespan by 28%
Enabled real-time compliance monitoring across multiple countries
Reduced maintenance costs by 42% through predictive approaches
