Audi puts production data in the limelight

Audi logo

In the assembly department at Audi AG in Ingolstadt, PLC controls recognize the vehicle type of the currently delivered bodywork along the production lines.

The order system provides the information as to which accessories have to be fitted to that car body. BizConnect, the flexible Java communication framework (EAI) developed by Sybit, ensures that this information is visualized on large electronic display panels and is, therefore, available to assembly workers.

Sybit BizConnect therefore connects three worlds:

  • Audi order system
  • PLC controls
  • microSYST display panels

Within the shortest time, an easily maintainable and enhanceable solution was implemented that visualizes data in real time. Audi also successfully uses Sybit BizConnect in the stock control of paint shop accessories.
