01 / The challenge

Production is running;
but can you see everything?

In many factories, machines are already generating valuable data — but that information is either not captured, or reaches decision-makers late and in fragmented form.

  • Manual production recordingProduction figures are recorded on paper, introducing delays and human error.
  • Limited real-time visibilityThere is no unified view of the real-time status of machines and lines.
  • Fragmented production informationData remains siloed across people, shifts, and reports.
  • Unrecorded downtimeDowntime duration and causes are not measured and recorded accurately.
  • Difficult historical analysisWithout a recorded history, trend analysis and period comparisons are impossible.
  • Delayed performance reportingProduction performance reports are prepared with a delay, not at the moment of need.

02 / The approach

Connect the physical factory to the digital world

The platform architecture provides a clear path from the physical machine to the management dashboard — each layer has a distinct role.

LAYER 01

Existing machines and production lines

Your current factory equipment — with no replacement needed.

LAYER 02

Added sensors

Installed on machine bodies to measure status, cycles, and production activity.

LAYER 03

Data acquisition device

Reads sensor data and securely sends it to the platform.

LAYER 04

Rahva IIoT platform

Centralizes industrial data, calculates KPIs, and stores historical records.

Real-time monitoringReal-time status of machines and production
Historical data and analysisTrends, downtime, and period-over-period comparisons
Dashboards and reportsClear views tailored to each role in the organization
The entire path is added alongside your existing automation — nothing in the control layer is altered.
03 / Key deployment advantage

Built around the factory you already have

The platform collects machine and production data through its own sensors and acquisition devices — independently of the machine's existing control system. This enables digital monitoring without interfering with current automation, which is one of the most important advantages of this deployment approach.

Existing factory control

As-is
  • Machine control and automation system
  • Existing equipment operating logic
  • Current production-floor workflows

New digital monitoring layer

Added on top
  • Sensors installed on machines
  • Data acquisition devices
  • IIoT platform, dashboards, and reports

Existing machines keep running— No need to stop or rebuild equipment.

Existing automation is not part of the data path— Data collection is fully independent.

Digital monitoring is a separate layer— Addable, expandable, and independent.

Technical details about separating the control and monitoring layers are explained on theTechnology page.

04 / Platform capabilities

What the platform delivers

Eight core capabilities that turn industrial data into actionable information for the production floor and management.

Machine monitoring

Real-time visibility into the operating status of connected machines.

Production monitoring

Track production counts, rates, targets, and activity.

Production line monitoring

View multiple machines as one integrated production system.

Downtime monitoring

Measure machine downtime and production interruptions.

Performance analysis

Analyze machine, line, and shift performance.

Historical data

Understand production behavior over time.

Industrial dashboard

Transform industrial data into clear visual interfaces.

Reporting

Structured production and performance reports.

05 / Dashboard

A window into factory operational data

The platform dashboard is built for real production decisions — with KPIs, machine status, and trends that actually matter on the factory floor. The data below is illustrative.

06 / Data journey

From sensor to operational improvement

The platform creates value through a five-step journey — from the moment a sensor detects a physical signal to the decision that improves performance.

01

Sense

Sensors collect physical data from the machine.

02

Collect

Acquisition devices aggregate and transmit the data.

03

Monitor

The platform provides real-time visibility into production.

04

Analyze

Historical data reveals patterns in performance and downtime.

05

Improve

Teams identify opportunities for operational improvement.

07 / Real-time and historical

Know what is happening now and understand what has happened before

The platform is more than just a real-time dashboard —it combines a monitoring system and a production data analysis tool in one place.

08 / Production performance

Industrial data enables measurable performance

The platform converts physical production activity into clear KPIs — the numbers that matter in production and management meetings.

09 / Downtime

Make production losses visible

Every minute of downtime is lost production. Automatically collected data provides an accurate, continuous picture of production interruptions — without depending on manual records.

Machine status

Know instantly whether each machine is running or stopped.

02

Production counting

Automatically collect production data without manual entry.

03

Production downtime

Measure production interruptions and their causes.

04

Cycle time

Monitor machine cycle behavior and deviations.

05
