Smart Connected Assembly - Powered by data
Atlas Copco is now taking its vision of smart factory to a higher level. Called “Smart Connected Assembly – Powered by data”, it addresses the challenges faced by manufacturing companies of how best to use the data collected in their production. The concept shows how to generate value by utilizing data created by Atlas Copco smart tools and solutions at each phase of a customer's process – from design, to prototype, and to assembly.
The main industry challenges are:
Mayor combinación de producto
La demanda de personalización de productos para el consumidor final aumentará. La visión de tamaño de lote 1 de Industria 4.0 supone que el coste de producir una unidad o un millón sea el mismo. Para esto se necesita una flexibilidad superior en la producción
Complejidad de los sistemas
Los sistemas de producción serán más y más complejos, y cada vez más tareas críticas de producción dependerán de los sistemas en red. Gestionar la configuración, las versiones de software y el control de acceso será de vital importancia para controlar la calidad y mantener el tiempo de actividad en la producción
Factores humanos
El factor humano tendrá un papel muy importante en el futuro. Los operarios de montaje deben adoptar las nuevas tecnologías para aprovechar al máximo el potencial disponible. Esto implica que los sistemas deben ser fáciles de usar y que la inmensa cantidad de datos generados durante el proceso de montaje debe procesarse para presentar al operario solo la información más importante
Sostenibilidad
La sostenibilidad alcanzará un nivel de importancia nunca visto, con plantas alimentadas por energía eólica y solar. Se observará un aumento de la conciencia medioambiental y se aplicarán normativas al respecto a nivel mundial
And what does “Smart Connected Assembly - Powered by data” mean?
Imagine, technology that collects and analyzes tightening data throughout the life cycle of your product program, and can thus predict tool failures, recommend an optimal maintenance plan, and reduce your production costs. Technology that provides valuable insights from previous production programs in the data it generates.
This technology is here! Smart Connected Assembly – Powered by data is the next level of our smart factory concept. The data continuously created by Atlas Copco smart tools and solutions can be used to maximize uptime and quality in your operation and cut your production costs.
That’s smart!

Smart Connected Assembly supports Industry 4.0 becoming reality. A reality where technology is easy to use and quickly delivers value.
Listen to our experts explaining how the 6 pillars of values we strive for and how it would benefit your business.
Aumente el tiempo productivo
Increase tool uptime from 98% to 99,5% with a more data-driven approach for predictive maintenance. Using analytics to get useful insights about the condition of the equipment to determine the maintenance tasks. As a result, the repair can be scheduled at a time that minimizes the impact on production.

Introducción de nuevos productos
New product introduction cost down by 57% - From 3500 EUR to 1500 EUR using Virtual Stations. Now a simple software configuration change is all it takes.
Presented by Robert Karlsson - Senior Product Manager, Atlas Copco
Productividad mejorada
Improved productivity by 73% - First time through increase from 92,5% to 98% in one year with a structured data analysis process. This is achieved by fewer reworks, higher end-product quality and maximum uptime on the assembly line. Smart process monitoring and analysis software like Atlas Copco ToolsNet enhance the capacity to monitor, analyze and improve the assembly process.

Reducción del consumo de energía
Reduction in energy use by 80%.
Multiple wireless tools running on one virtual assembly process controller leads to a significant reduction use of energy use, which can be up to 80%. More than a cost reduction, it is also to meet environmental policies.
