In the era of smart factories, Mercedes Benz monitors all fast lasers in its global production network based on cloud, significantly improving system resilience and reducing the risk of machine downtime.

 



The connection between the Mercedes Benz digital ecosystem MO360 and the Trumpf laser for digital prediction services has helped achieve very good dynamic maintenance, and achieved demand based on-site service allocation while optimizing service costs.

Recently, Trumpf announced a partnership with automotive giant Mercedes Benz, deepening decades of cooperation and jointly promoting the revitalization of complex production systems. This not only improves production efficiency but also enhances system flexibility.

In the era of smart factories, both companies focus on predictive digital maintenance and real-time laser maintenance. The corresponding pilot project of the Sindelfingen factory has become a blueprint model for all Mercedes Benz factories worldwide. This innovative process significantly reduces the risk of unexpected machine shutdowns and greatly improves the flexibility of complex automotive production processes.

Standardized data infrastructure, predictive digital maintenance
Traditional laser maintenance relies on fixed time intervals and repairs are carried out directly at their respective locations. Master data maintenance, documentation, and data exchange all require manual completion.

However, with the cooperation between Trumpf and Mercedes Benz, this situation has been completely changed.
With the support of Manufacturing Service Bus (MSB) and global MO360 data infrastructure, about half of the fast lasers and related laser optical devices have been connected to a common cloud, enabling real-time data exchange and analysis.

J, member of the Management Committee of Mercedes Benz AG? "The future of automotive production lies in forward-looking digital processes, dynamic maintenance, and minimizing failures. Our collaboration with Trumpf enables us to continuously drive the optimization of production processes through innovative status monitoring," said rg Burzer.

Status monitoring: Real time monitoring of production systems
In the digital service status monitoring system developed by Trumpf, the status of the laser can be continuously monitored and analyzed in real-time based on the cloud. Any abnormalities can be quickly identified and reported directly to the maintenance department, while providing recommended handling measures. This enables Mercedes Benz to anticipate maintenance needs before laser malfunctions occur, and take timely measures to prevent them from occurring.

More than 80% of service cases have achieved prediction and proactive planning, greatly reducing unexpected downtime in production. In addition, the results of these analyses will help Mercedes Benz operate lasers better, thereby contributing to the continuous optimization of its high-tech car production.

Hagen Zimer, CEO of Trumpf Laser Technology, also emphasized the importance of intelligent factory solutions: "Digital networks are key to improving production efficiency. Through status monitoring and data analysis, we support Mercedes Benz in achieving state-of-the-art production while increasing the availability of our lasers and machines."

Mercedes Benz guarantees data protection
In terms of data protection, Mercedes Benz adopts a globally unified IT architecture and standardized components to ensure that production related data is not leaked to third parties. Only laser status data will be sent to Trumpf Cloud for analysis, and the data flow is subject to strict cloud evaluation and audit protection.

Status monitoring: In the era of smart factories, Mercedes Benz and TRUMPF high-tech companies rely on real-time laser prediction and forward-looking digital maintenance of all TRUMPF lasers in the global automotive production network.

Cooperation between Trumpf and Mercedes Benz
Hagen Zimer, CEO of Trumpf Laser Technology, and J, Board Member of Mercedes Benz? RG Burzer is located at the S-class sedan production plant in Sindfingen.

In addition, Mercedes Benz also collaborates with the German Institute of Advanced Technology to jointly develop the Trumpf Intelligent Factory Technical College, committed to cultivating more professional talents with advanced production technology. This cooperation not only promotes technological progress, but also lays a solid foundation for the future development of Mercedes Benz and Trumpf.
