Industry 4.0 and IoT

IMAS 4.0

Plant monitoring, maintenance and energy management connected to the ERP

IMAS 4.0 is Labinf’s open Industry 4.0 platform: it collects data from CNC machines, plants and IoT sensors, brings it into a single communication layer and makes it available to the ERP, to maintenance and to energy management, including third-party systems.

Who it is for

Who it’s for

Manufacturers with CNC machines and production plants
Energy managers and facility managers
System integrators and technical consultants
Managers of office and service buildings

The context

The problems we solve

Machine and plant data locked in different protocols and systems
Production information not connected to the ERP
Maintenance handled on failure instead of planned
Little visibility on energy consumption, by site and by user
Building systems managed with separate tools

Our approach

How we work

IMAS 4.0 uses open protocols (BACnet, LonWorks, Modbus, OPC-UA) to acquire field data and translate it into a single communication layer. The collected data remains available to the ERP, the maintenance system and the energy dashboards through open APIs and databases.

The result

Operational benefits

Consistent field data, available to every business system
Integration between machines, plants and ERP
Predictive and planned maintenance
Energy consumption and KPIs under control, across multiple sites
Open platform that integrates with third-party systems

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about IMAS 4.0

What is IMAS 4.0?

IMAS 4.0 is Labinf Sistemi’s open Industry 4.0 platform. It collects data from CNC machines, plants and IoT sensors, brings it into a single communication layer and makes it available to the ERP, maintenance and energy management.

Which protocols and machines does it support?

IMAS 4.0 uses open protocols such as OPC-UA, Modbus, BACnet and LonWorks. It can acquire data from PLCs, CNC systems, automation plants, IoT sensors and building systems (HVAC, lighting, access control).

Does it work with a non-Labinf ERP?

Yes. The collected data stays available through open APIs and databases, so IMAS 4.0 connects both to Labinf ERPs (such as LIGEST or iDempiere) and to third-party management systems.

Which modules does IMAS 4.0 include?

Besides machine-to-ERP integration it includes SCADA for interactive plant design, IMAS EnerVue for energy management, IMAS BAS for building automation and IMAS MAINT for predictive, scheduled and corrective maintenance, with remote diagnostics and support.

Can energy consumption be monitored across several sites?

Yes. IMAS EnerVue is a web dashboard showing energy consumption and KPIs by site and by user, across multiple sites, to spot waste and compare plants.

Is IMAS 4.0 suitable for Industry 4.0 projects?

IMAS 4.0 connects machines to the management system and collects production data, which are typical requirements of Industry 4.0 projects. Eligibility for any incentives should be checked case by case with your own advisor.
