V@ guide

The smart way to get machining recommendations. Identify errors before they occur. Digital modules and automated digital communication processes enable preventive maintenance to be carried out and knowledge to be shared. The smart way to receive recommendations and prevent downtime.

PROGRESS DRIVES YOUR BUSINESS FORWARD

The desire to offer our customers maximum benefit has been the driving force behind our innovations under the "V" banner for over 100 years and is the principle behind the digital transformation at VOLLMER. True to this promise, our engineers and developers are currently working on a whole host of digital solutions, tools and services packed with functions and features. Fewer/Shorter downtimes, predictive maintenance, maximum system availability and the utmost transparency throughout the process – these are just some of the benefits you can expect from the world of V@dison.

Operator Notifications

Store communication relationships and connect to machine parameters. Receive automated notifications on various devices and display values in a standardised format. Make use of our prefabricated processes or easily create your own flows using the Node-RED open-source system.

VOLLMER Dashboard

The VOLLMER Dashboard for visualising machine data: Access live detailed machine status information. At any time, from any device, from anywhere in the world. You always maintain an overview of the basic data for your machines and the machine utilisation. And you therefore achieve the highest degree of transparency.

Standard Protocols

Standardised interfaces and protocols (e.g. OPC UA, MTConnect) mean that data can be effortlessly exchanged between our machines and your applications.

VOLLMER IoT-Gateway

With the VOLLMER IoT Gateway, you can connect your machine to a digital environment, which therefore allows for a flow of data.

The Heart of our V@dison solution: The VOLLMER IoT Gateway

The VOLLMER IoT gateway enable you to integrate your VOLLMER machine to a digital environment and capture data for further analysis. The IoT gateway converts electric I/O signals into understandable data and is the hardware needed as an interface between your machine and applications. And thanks to standardised protocols such as OPC UA or MTConnect, this not only enable data flow towards V@dison products, but also towards any third party solutions in your pre-existing IT infrastructure.

"With V@dison, we have opted for a digital strategy that we want to drive forward together with our customers and partners," says Dr Stefan Brand, CEO of the VOLLMER Group. "This is about meaningful and efficient networking of our machines via different IoT platforms in order to improve manufacturing processes and to give new momentum within tool development."

The “dison” in V@dison stands for “digital solutions”. But perhaps it also reminds you of the famous inventor Thomas Alva Edison, who worked hard to make electricity available to the masses and offer people solutions that made their lives easier.

This is precisely the motivation behind our new V@dison product range too: Digital solutions to bring you added value.
