The Platform

The Platform

A layered intelligence system

not a single tool.

1

Capture

Real-world signal capture

Cameras, sensors, PLC signals, MES, ERP, and machine data combined into one operational record.

Video · PLC · MES · ERP

2

Understand

Process understanding

Cycle times, bottlenecks, downtime, deviations, walking routes, non-value-adding activity, and root causes.

AI · Agents · Analysis

3

Optimize

Improvement intelligence

Recommendations, simulation, best-practice capture, benchmarking, and root-cause analysis at every station.

Insights · Actions

4

Automate

Automation foundation

Almetra’s intelligence and blueprints become the foundation for robotics, autonomous workflows, and self-improving systems.

AI · Agents · Analysis

Built for how your

Factory runs.

DATA INTEGRATION

DATA INTEGRATION

Every relevant signal

from the floor and the systems that surround it.

PHYSICAL LAYER

Vision data

Cameras mounted as operational sensors. Workstation views and bird-eye coverage. Machine cycle tracking and component movement detection.

MACHINE LAYER

PLC & sensor data

PLC signals, downtime events, OEE inputs, and machine cycle data, integrated directly with visual evidence from the same moment in time.

SYSTEM LAYER

MES & ERP

Production orders, planned cycle times, quality records, and operational context combined with physical reality to produce a complete operational picture.

ABB improves production productivity by 15%+ with AI-powered shop floor intelligence

By turning optical shop floor data into real-time operational insights, the team identified bottlenecks, understood root causes, and achieved improvements that traditional lean methods could not have delivered in the same timeframe.

INSIGHT

Bottleneck: Station 10 constrains entire line

At 18.5 min median cycle time

1.85× the takt time of 10 minutes

This single station limits daily throughput to ~45 units.

Bottleneck removal increases line output:

by up to 35%

VIDEO ANALYSIS

ROOT CAUSE EO

20% NVA time

operator waits for upstream part (42%)

walks to tool cart (31%)

handles documentation (27%)

Moving the tool cart closer saves:

~3 min/cycle

PRIVACY & SECURITY

Privacy is not a feature.

It's the foundation.

Most AI tools arrive at the works council as a problem to manage. Almetra is designed so they become advocates not obstacles.

Raw video deleted immediately

Footage is processed and discarded immediately. No stored video, no surveillance risk.

Processes tracked, not people

Individual performance is never captured or stored. We observe how work happens not who's doing it.

High cybersecurity by design

GDPR-compliant. Works council co- decision. No performance ranking. Open to audit.

“Our productivity increased by 15%, a game-changer in a long-established line. Almetra is the reality on the shopfloor.”

— Christian Steinler, Factory Manager, ABB Heidelberg
