Teconnex Europe<\/a> is a manufacturer of technical coupling solutions for the automotive industry. Following the completion of a digital transformation project alongside Orange Business, it can analyse real-time information related to the production flow. This was achieved through a solution delivered by a start-up grown in the Orange Fab<\/a> incubator, a solution also used by dozens of other factories.<\/strong><\/p>

Context:<\/span><\/h3>

Teconnex Europe was founded six years ago and is part of a group of companies that has factories in seven countries. In Romania, the Teconnex Europe factory produces technical coupling solutions for the automotive industry and has over 230 employees, growing from the initial 40 employees when actual production began. The company sought an experienced partner to immediately benefit from the efficiency of digital transformation by digitizing the traditionally manual production processes in the factory. Teconnex initially chose Orange Business for the implementation of infrastructure services – mobile phone services, fixed internet, structured cabling.<\/p>

As development progressed, Teconnex\u2019s needs grew. Orange Business<\/a> began delivering other services, such as managed Wi-Fi services in the production hall and offices. Consequently, we presented solutions to address real-time production analysis needs. One of these solutions, KFactory, was already \u201egrown\u201c in the Orange Fab business incubator. It perfectly suited Teconnex\u2019s needs to monitor production, to see the rate of defective products or those requiring special attention. Therefore, Orange Business, together with the start-up KFactory, created a long-term digital transformation plan, as a result of which Teconnex Europe will have complete visibility over all processes on the production line to intervene immediately in case of deviations from the production plan.<\/p>

The solution chosen:<\/span><\/h3>

Live Production Reports at Teconnex Europe. The solution selected was KFactory, an Industry 4.0 solution to automate data collection<\/a> und analysis<\/a> from industrial production equipment. The solution is part of the Orange Fab incubator, managed by Orange Business. It allows real-time analysis of data from industrial processes\u00a0 and provides live production reports. This way managers can easily identify areas where intervention is needed for efficiency.<\/p>

Features of the chosen solution, good practices:<\/span><\/h3>

The implementation of the KFactory solution within Teconnex had several specificities related to factory operations. Also, the need to ensure cybersecurity in the production flow alongside the digitization process.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\u201eIn terms of specificities, because we are talking about something different from other customers, we had the opportunity to implement the solution in a spot-welding production flow, which we had never done before. A large part of Teconnex\u2019s production flow consists of spot welding. This was a challenge for us \u2013 to come up with a different approach and ensure that our platform can be implemented on any type of equipment, on any type of production flow.\u201c\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\u201eA very important aspect in implementation was cyber security. We took this global threat very seriously, which is why the solution implementation was done in parallel with securing all components by those involved in the project and with user training to reduce the risks of cyber-attacks.\u201c\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
