Huawei has joined hands with Infosys and Wapwag, a provider of smart water affair solutions at the Huawei Connect networking event held earlier this month. Together they aim to release a series of important innovative practices including smart robots/ machine tools and smart water affairs based on open edge computing IoT, accelerating the implementation of industry applications.
Mike Liu, the Vice President of Infosys and Country Head in Infosys Greater China, said, “Infosys and Huawei have jointly innovated the intelligent industrial robot or machine tool interconnection solution. The solution implements predictive maintenance, helping manufacturers greatly improve maintenance efficiency. The downtime of industrial robots or machine tools is reduced by over 70% and the defect rate is reduced by 40%. The solution can help schedule production based on device resource usage and it can also optimize production lines, significantly improving the production efficiency.”
Currently, Huawei edge computing IoT is in wide use in fields such as elevator connection networks, smart manufacturing, smart water affairs, power IoT, cities, and lighting IoT. Huawei has also recently joined hands with 116 partners in the industry to initiate the Edge Computing Consortium (ECC), promoting rapid innovation and accelerating digital transformation through open architecture.
Swift Liu, President of Huawei Network Solutions R&D Department and ECC Vice Chairman, said, “The Huawei edge computing IoT solution is extremely open. It supports various industrial protocols and interfaces and is widely applied to various industry connectivity scenarios. In addition, it leverages its open edge computing capabilities and cloud management architecture to rapidly meet intelligent data processing requirements in different industries. This helps industries quickly innovate, improves production efficiency and quality, reduces O&M costs, and improves public services.”
