Machine Level Network Design


With a Machine Level Network Design, we help your machines make the right connections to increase visibility and reduce costs. Improve overall equipment effectiveness by more than 10% by connecting machines for intelligent decision making.


When considering your network, ask yourself the following:

 

   • Do you have cell/zone topology standards?

   • Do you have line expansion requirements?

   • Are you performing device-level analytics?

   • Do you require standard network documentation?

   • Do you need to capture data from machines?

   • Is your access layer switch hardware on a common platform?

 

If you answered yes to these questions, we can help with the overall design of your system.

What You Can Expect

If you decide that our Machine Level Network Design services are right for you, there are some things you can expect.

 

When you invest in a Machine Level Network Design service, you can anticipate:

 

   • A collaboration meeting: Before going on-site, we will hold a collaboration meeting to discuss objectives, expectations, and functional network requirements. We want to make sure we are all on the same page before we start.


   • On-site data collection: Next, a Rockwell Automation Authorized Service Provider Network Engineer will conduct a current network analysis. This analysis will consider a multitude of items, from manufacturing process flows to planned expansions.


   • Off-site data processing: After the analysis, the data is analyzed by a Rockwell Automation Network Engineer. They will form a network design package, complete with physical and logical drawings that include component specifications.


   • Design package review: Finally, a Rockwell Automation Authorized Service Provider reviews the drawings and ensures they meet your requirements.
