control: Your process data under control — everywhere

control connects, visualizes, alerts, analyzes, and orchestrates process data — from anywhere. You already own the source data — control reveals the connections.

Without connectivity, your data stays siloed

Process data is the key to sound decision-making. But without a central platform, valuable information stays locked away in isolated systems.

Scattered data sources

Machine data lives in different systems and formats. There's no cross-cutting view of how things connect — decisions get made on gut feeling instead of data.

No real-time monitoring

Faults and downtime are caught too late. Without mobile alerting, you only learn about problems after the damage is already done.

Missing analytics

Without automated metrics like OEE or energy consumption, there's no foundation for sound optimization and continuous improvement.

Notifications and alerting

Capture alarms, operating-state messages, and virtual alarms. Popup notifications and SMS alerts make sure you never miss a critical event.

  • Alarm capture with history and archivingComplete documentation of all alarm events for analysis and auditing
  • SMS alerts and popup notificationsInstant notification of critical conditions — no matter where you are
  • Virtual alarms and summary displayCreate custom alarms and keep the full picture in view
control operational data acquisition — OEE analysis, activity timeline, active alarms, and part counters on a production line
OEE tracking active

Machine data and operational data acquisition

Online machine data acquisition with quantity counters, cycle times, downtime reasons, and energy data collection. All automated and in real time.

  • OEE calculation and quality countersAutomatic real-time calculation of overall equipment effectiveness
  • Energy data acquisition and virtual operating-hour countersMake energy consumption transparent and identify savings potential
  • Trend data generation and archivingLong-term data for analysis, audits, and continuous improvement

Digital capture right at the machine

Whatever the controller does not deliver, your staff enter at the shop-floor terminal: order data, quality data, manual entries. Digital instead of handwritten — and in the same data set as the machine data.

  • Order and quality data entered at the terminalProduction-related information lands exactly where the machine data already lives
  • Manual entries instead of paper recordsFewer transcription errors, better data quality, no retyping after the fact
  • For operators, quality control, and maintenanceUsable on standard smart devices or on terminals permanently installed along the line

All sources connected

Universal data sources and interfaces

Seamless integration via OPC-UA, Modbus, MQTT, SQL, Profinet, TCP/IP, and many more protocols. From sensor data to Microsoft Azure — control connects it all.

  • OPC-UA, Modbus, MQTT, SQL, Profinet, TCP/IPIndustry-standard protocols for universal machine connectivity
  • CSV connector, KNX, LoRa interfacesFlexible connectivity for building automation and IoT sensors as well
  • Microsoft Azure and web service integrationCloud connectivity for scalable data processing and analysis
control reporting — measurement details with metrics, measurement series, histogram, and normal distribution
Web report ready

Raw data becomes real metrics

control calculates metrics straight from the process and publishes the summary online as a web report. Data series and analyses can be exported at any time.

  • OEE, utilization, and statistical metricsRight down to standard deviation — calculated from the raw controller data
  • Minimum and maximum values with timestampsFor every data point, across a freely definable observation period
  • Web reports online, analyses exportablePull up records in the browser, process data series onward as CSV

Your process data stays your process data

control stores and transmits operating data the way a production operation needs it: encrypted, access-controlled, and archived traceably.

Encrypted connections

The connection to the data source is secured via VPN and certificate with 128-bit encryption. Clients communicate with the server exclusively over HTTPS.

User and role management

Access rights are controlled per user and role. Every session has its own login, and inactivity triggers an automatic logout.

Central archiving

Data from controllers, plants, and processes lives in a central database — protected against manipulation and unauthorized access. The update interval is adjustable per data point.

Local data buffering

A local buffer at the machine, in the plant, or in a section of the building writes the cyclical data values to a local database on site.

control IoT platform — frequently asked questions

What is the control IoT platform?
control is a universal IIoT data platform for industrial applications. It centralizes process data from a wide range of sources and makes it available through dashboards, KPIs, and analytics — usable in industry, energy monitoring, and building technology.
Which data sources can control connect to?
control's ecosystem is designed to connect a wide variety of data sources — from machines and sensors to controllers and existing systems. The result is a single, central view of all relevant process data.
Does control require a software installation?
No. control is web-based and delivered as a SaaS solution — no local installation required. Users access it from multiple devices and navigate via dashboards and favorites down to detailed information.
What analytics does control offer?
control generates automated KPIs and enables anomaly detection, notifications, automated reports, and predictive analytics — turning raw measurement data into genuine insight.
