IIoTIndustrial Internet of Things

A network of connected sensors and machines that stream real-time data from the factory floor for monitoring and analytics.

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) connects machines, sensors, and devices on the plant floor so they continuously stream data — temperatures, vibration, cycle counts, energy use — to analytics platforms. It is a foundational layer of Industry 4.0.

IIoT enables real-time OEE tracking, condition-based and predictive maintenance, and digital twins, turning previously invisible operational data into actionable insight.

Put IIoT into practice

SymplProcess turns these concepts into working models, calculators, and templates your whole team can use — no spreadsheets required.
