Case Study: an agricultural equipment manufacturer enables predictive maintenance with Cirrus Link MQTT and Sparkplug

Agricultural Equipment Manufacturer Enables Predictive Maintenance and Increases Efficiency with MQTT and Sparkplug

An agricultural equipment manufacturer sought to implement predictive maintenance and increase operational efficiency but faced challenges in standardizing and modeling OT data from its varied facilities for use in AWS IoT SiteWise. They needed a solution to bridge the OT-IT gap and provide a single source of truth for their data scientists. Cirrus Link provided its IoT Bridge for SiteWise, working in conjunction with the Ignition SCADA platform.

The solution from Cirrus Link utilized MQTT and the Sparkplug B specification to seamlessly standardize and deliver operational data from the plants to AWS IoT SiteWise with zero coding. This gave the manufacturer’s data scientists immediate access to reliable, real-time data for advanced analytics, resulting in improved operations, more uptime, and the successful enablement of predictive maintenance and AI use cases.
