The challenge

Why it mattered

Vimachem provides a modular Manufacturing Execution System to more than 130 pharmaceutical and biopharma manufacturers, according to the company. Production equipment generates a constant stream of data — but on many shop floors it stays locked inside machines and PLCs. Turning that data into reliable, real-time insight requires secure, standards-based connectivity and a pipeline that never loses a value.

What we built

Capabilities delivered

Industrial IoT engineering · OPC UA integration · Data pipelines · Dashboards & analytics

01

OPC UA machine connectivity

Direct, secure connections to production equipment and PLCs over OPC UA.

02

Data acquisition & buffering

Reliable collection of tags and events, with buffering when the network drops.

03

Cloud data pipelines

Ingestion and storage of high-frequency machine data for analysis.

04

Real-time dashboards

Live machine states, process values and alarms for operators and managers.

05

Charts & statistics

Trends, distributions and production statistics over shifts, batches and lines.

06

OEE & performance insight

Availability, performance and quality metrics that reveal where time is lost.

Engineering highlights

How we built it

  • OPC UA
  • Edge gateways
  • .NET
  • Time-series data
  • PostgreSQL
  • Cloud
  • Real-time dashboards
  • Standards-basedOPC UA end to end — no proprietary lock-in between machines and software.
  • Secure by designCertificates, encrypted channels and segmented networks; machines are never exposed to the internet.
  • Built for regulated industryAccurate, traceable data suitable for GxP manufacturing environments.
  • From signal to decisionRaw tags become clear charts and statistics that production teams act on.
Outcome

Machine data that used to stay on the shop floor now flows in real time into dashboards and analytics — giving pharma manufacturers a live, trustworthy view of their equipment and production.
