From machine to CO₂ report: how Manufacturing-X works for SMEs
How can companies successfully get started with Manufacturing-X while achieving clear business impact? SITEC and Smart Systems Hub demonstrate this using the example of CO₂ reporting in mechanical engineering. The starting point: heterogeneous machines, limited internal resources, and high initial complexity. At the same time, the demands for data sovereignty, ESG reporting, and collaboration within supply networks are increasing. The solution combines Smart Systems Hub’s experimental environment and infrastructure with SITEC’s hands-on experience as a machine builder and operator. Production data such as energy consumption and unit counts are securely transferred via EDC connectors into a standardized data space, where they are provided to an analytics service and aggregated into reliable key figures. SITEC integrates the results into its connACT SERVICES, creating reusable building blocks instead of isolated one-off solutions. The result is rapid proofs, a scalable IT/OT integration, and a reliable foundation for further applications such as digital product passports. This episode is aimed at decision-makers in mechanical engineering as well as OT and IT teams who want to implement Manufacturing-X pragmatically, reduce implementation efforts, and reliably meet ESG requirements.
