“Tsifra” is launching a cloud version of the system for monitoring the operation of equipment and personnel for discrete production “Smart Workshop”. It is being deployed on a cloud platform. The company has already successfully tested the technology at several industrial enterprises in Russia. The flagship equipment monitoring system “Dispatcher” served as the basis for creating the cloud version.
Cloud monitoring “Smart Workshop” collects and processes production data in real time to monitor the condition of machines, evaluate the efficiency of personnel and make the right decisions to optimize processes. The cloud monitoring system is distributed by subscription: monthly or annual, and is primarily intended for small and medium-sized enterprises.
“Most small and medium-sized enterprises in mechanical engineering are not yet ready for large-scale investments in digital projects. And they expect simple solutions from us to close the “pains” of management personnel and gain an advantage over competitors due to the correct distribution of capacities and resources. And to make our system accessible to such companies, we have developed the “Smart Workshop” cloud service. After all, the subscription model of payment for the service reduces Capex, since there is no need to invest in the infrastructure itself,” said the head of the Mechanical Engineering and Metalworking Division of the Tsifra Group of Companies. Vasily Churanov.
“As leaders in industrial digitalization, we always look at the prospects for the development of technologies in the industry, offering our customers those solutions that are just gaining momentum, but have significant potential. Industrial clouds are one of the technologies that will undergo significant development in the coming years. Together with our technology partners, we are forming a set of cloud solutions for enterprises in various sectors of the economy, paying great attention to information security issues,” said the CEO of GC “Tsifra” Mikhail Aronson.
The technology of the Smart Workshop monitoring system meets all safety requirements and can be installed at facilities related to critical information infrastructure, claims Tsifra.
Thanks to a customized system of automation of data processing scenarios and report visualization, the cloud equipment monitoring system is connected in a few minutes and without capital expenditures.

Document flow
Specialized devices and sensors are connected to the equipment, after which the data collection process is launched. The data is transmitted and processed on cloud servers, and then transmitted to a web client, which provides end users with all the analytics with production efficiency indicators and reports on operating time and downtime.
The web client is accessible from any device, which increases the overall level of convenience for manufacturers. The “smart shop” can also implement a fully remote connection to monitoring. If the production has “smart” CNC machines, then it is enough to get access to the service and perform the final setup of the system via direct connections.
The Russian monitoring system allows increasing equipment utilization by 15-40%, as well as reducing unscheduled equipment downtime by up to 35%.
