Case Study: Blackbird achieves global, reliable real-time production-line monitoring with EMnify

Industrial Iot – Collecting Data From Manufacturing Lines Within Minutes

Blackbird, a Denmark-based electronic devices company, builds Factbird IoT units to digitalize manufacturing lines and enable real-time efficiency analysis. Facing unreliable service from traditional telcos and local operators, Blackbird needed a specialist M2M partner that could provide secure, global connectivity, real-time device/location data, and flexible IoT tariffs — so they chose EMnify.

EMnify supplied network-agnostic SIMs, the Connectivity Management platform with real-time data and REST API (integrated into Blackbird’s AWS environment), Regional Internet Breakout for lower latency, and flexible traffic pooling. The result: rapid, global rollouts (1000+ devices in 16+ countries, 6000MB+ data/month), reduced connectivity costs and latency, uninterrupted production-line monitoring, faster troubleshooting, and improved trial-to-customer conversion and sales for Blackbird.
