<\/p>\nDaliworks offers a trio of manufacturing innovation solutions: Prime, an AI solution for managing manufacturing equipment; SignalVax, a 24-hour AI motor doctor; and EnergyQ, which raises energy efficiency. Among them, Prime brings innovative support to equipment operations monitoring and energy management for manufacturers, accelerating digital transformation at small and mid-sized companies. In this case study, we introduce the Prime deployment at Customer A, which operates large laser bending machines and needed to cut its energy use.<\/p>\n
Prime is a smart factory solution for monitoring equipment operations and managing energy at manufacturing companies. Using power sensors, it collects and analyzes real-time data to support productivity gains and cost savings. It offers an intuitive dashboard and a range of reporting features, and is designed to contribute to ESG management as well. Delivered cloud-based at a reasonable cost to support digital transformation at small and mid-sized companies, it monitors equipment utilization, energy consumption, power quality, and more to help operations run efficiently.<\/p>\n

Architecture of Prime, the AI solution for manufacturing equipment management<\/p>\n
Customer A, Korea’s largest operator of laser bending machines with a wide range of advanced processing equipment, adopted the Prime service to address the following challenges:<\/p>\n
\u2013 Meeting ESG management goals: Cut power use and reduce pollutant emissions<\/p>\n
\u2013 Greater equipment efficiency: A systematic production management solution was needed to raise productivity<\/p>\n
\u2013 Environmental data monitoring: Real-time detection of pollution factors such as dust and gases<\/p>\n
Introducing new equipment was essential, particularly to cut power use and reduce pollutant emissions. The company decided to acquire it through a government support program, opting for the \u2018Smart Eco-Factory Program.\u2019<\/p>\n
\nAbout the Smart Eco-Factory Program<\/p>\n
Targeting manufacturing plants \u2014 the largest share of pollution sources \u2014 the program comprehensively pursues greenhouse gas reduction, pollutant minimization, and improved energy and resource efficiency, supporting small and mid-sized companies in building eco-friendly production systems.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
To that end, the company set the following goals and prepared the project.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Power savings and monitoring: Optimize energy use and manage power quality by introducing low-power equipment<\/p>\n
\u2013 Dust reduction and monitoring: Install dust collectors and detect airborne dust concentrations in real time<\/p>\n
\u2013 Gas monitoring: Measure hazardous gas emissions and minimize environmental impact<\/p>\n
How the Deployment Went<\/h2>\n
Company A decided to introduce eco-friendly facilities and operating systems through the Smart Eco-Factory Program. First, after being selected, it procured a low-power laser cutting machine along with eco-friendly equipment including dust collectors. This not only reduced power consumption but also marked the start of effective management of pollutants generated during production. Meters were also installed to precisely measure the new equipment’s power savings, enabling real-time data collection.<\/p>\n

The Smart Eco-Factory Program designates ICT as a mandatory element for monitoring the impact of newly introduced facilities. Company A built its ICT foundation on Daliworks’ Prime, and from the collected power data it was able to obtain the following.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Operating status by equipment<\/p>\n
\u2013 Daily\/weekly\/monthly power usage analysis and pattern analysis<\/p>\n
\u2013 Active power peak monitoring<\/p>\n
\u2013 Real-time power consumption<\/p>\n
\u2013 Day-over-day change rate<\/p>\n
\u2013 Hourly power usage statistics<\/p>\n
\u2013 Power quality parameter monitoring<\/p>\n
\u2013 Operating status timeline and daily, weekly, and monthly uptime\/downtime analysis<\/p>\n
\u2013 Anomaly detection and alarms<\/p>\n
\u2013 Equipment operations analysis reports<\/p>\n

Finally, additional dust sensors were deployed, enabling precise monitoring of airborne pollutant concentrations and systematic analysis of environmental impact. Because all sensor data is managed and delivered through the cloud-based Prime, the customer could check it anytime, regardless of location.<\/p>\n

Results<\/h2>\n
After successfully completing the project, the customer gained the following benefits.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Optimized investment: Reduced upfront cost burden by leveraging the government support program<\/p>\n
\u2013 Energy usage management: Achieved efficient energy consumption through real-time monitoring<\/p>\n
\u2013 ESG management in practice: Established itself as an industry-leading example of environmental management<\/p>\n
\u200bWe were especially proud to hear that the power data, as an immediate indicator of energy savings, would be a great help from the management team’s perspective as well. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
