Customer: Hörmann Digital
Industry: Industrial Manufacturing
Headquarters: Munich, Germany
HÖRMANN Digital leads the digital transformation of the HÖRMANN Group, a European consortium of industrial manufacturing companies. The company focuses on AI, cloud solutions, and data-driven innovation to modernize the digital capabilities of the HÖRMANN Group's subsidiaries across industries such as automotive, intralogistics, communication, and engineering.
HÖRMANN Digital sought to test a retrofit solution to enable predictive maintenance of automated warehouse facilities. With diverse machinery and equipment in use at different test locations, the goal was to deliver a proof of concept that could identify and address potential issues before they caused downtime. HÖRMANN needed an advanced, scalable system that could seamlessly integrate with its existing infrastructure to predict failures and enhance operational efficiency.
Tactical Edge supported HÖRMANN Digital to deploy AWS’s MONITRON system, an end-to-end predictive maintenance solution, in two large-scale Proof of Concepts (POCs). MONITRON leverages AI and IoT sensors to monitor equipment for potential failures, providing real-time alerts for preventive maintenance. The system was integrated across key machinery to ensure early detection of anomalies, minimizing unplanned downtime.
“Tactical Edge’s commitment to our success was unparalleled. Their team went the extra mile to support us hands-on, even on short notice, and their executive leadership demonstrated a deep understanding of our objectives. My team greatly benefited from Tactical Edge’s expertise in designing and deploying predictive maintenance solutions. Their white-glove service ensured that we achieved the best possible outcome in our test scenario. I wholeheartedly recommend Tactical Edge as a partner for any manufacturing company’s digital transformation journey.”
– Friedrich Arnold, Head of HÖRMANN Digital
