Webinar: Building an Industrial Data Foundation with SMARTUNIFIER

Industrial companies rarely lack data. The harder problem is turning data from machines, PLCs, databases, and applications into information that different teams and systems can understand and reuse.

A connection may deliver a value successfully, but important questions can remain: Which machine produced it? What unit does it use? What production context belongs to the event? Without a shared structure, each application must interpret the data again, adding integration effort and creating room for inconsistencies.

In our upcoming free webinar, Building an Industrial Data Foundation with SMARTUNIFIER, we will show a practical route from a raw machine event to standardized, contextualized information that a receiving system can use.

This webinar also marks the beginning of the SMARTUNIFIER Industrial Data Webinar Series. Through the series, we will explore important topics shaping modern industrial data environments, including Unified Namespace, AI on the shop floor, practical industrial use cases, and decentralized data architectures. We will announce details of the upcoming sessions separately.

The session combines a short introduction to data modeling and governance decisions with a guided demonstration in SMARTUNIFIER.

What you’ll learn

Using a machine event containing a temperature value and timestamp, we will demonstrate how to:

• Define a shared Information Model for a consistent equipment event.
• Configure connections and mappings to transform the source data.
• Add the context needed by the receiving system.
• Create a reusable integration pattern that can be adapted for additional machines.

We will also explain which decisions teams need to agree on before implementation, and how SMARTUNIFIER puts the agreed data structure and transformation rules into practice.

Building an Industrial Data Foundation with SMARTUNIFIER is the first session in the SMARTUNIFIER Industrial Data Webinar Series.

Join us on 10 November 2026 at 14:00 CET for a practical look at how raw machine data can become consistent, contextualized and reusable information.

Who should attend?

The webinar is designed for manufacturing, OT and IT teams, automation and digitalization specialists, industrial architects, data teams and system integrators.

It is particularly relevant if you are building a more consistent data foundation for MES, analytics, digital twins, or Industrial AI.

Webinar details

Join us to see how one raw machine event becomes a consistent, reusable information flow, and what it takes to build on that foundation.
