Case Study: ALPLA streamlines shop floor connectivity and analytics with Crosser

ALPLA standardizes IoT across 200 production sites with Crosser

ALPLA, a global leader in plastic packaging with over 200 production sites, faced challenges in connecting diverse machines and handling heterogeneous infrastructures across its vast operations. The company needed a flexible solution to unify connectivity, support strategic and ad-hoc data use cases, and scale its digital initiatives. This led them to partner with Crosser and implement its low-code platform for streaming analytics and integration.

Crosser provided a straightforward, low-code solution that empowered ALPLA's engineers to build data flows themselves, eliminating IT bottlenecks. The implementation resulted in faster responses to data requests, reducing the time for new data connections from months to nearly immediate. The Crosser platform gave ALPLA the flexibility to scale new use cases across its heterogeneous plants and provided a standardized, corporate solution for future IoT initiatives.
