What SmarTwin™ does.

// 01

Reads every signal your plant produces.

PLCs (Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Mitsubishi), OPC-UA, Modbus, MQTT, REST APIs, SAP/Oracle/Tally — plus manual entry for paper-based areas.

// 02

Calculates live OEE per machine per shift.

Availability × Performance × Quality. Per line, per machine, per product. Refreshed every 3 seconds. Visible on every shop-floor screen.

// 03

Classifies downtime operator-tagged.

Real reason codes — bearing failure, tooling, raw material, changeover, manning. Not black-box ML guesses. Plant Heads see the truth.

Built for

Plant Heads who got tired of OEE numbers arriving 3 days late.

Most Indian plants run OEE on weekly Excel reports. By the time a Plant Head sees Tuesday's drop, it's Friday. The shift's gone. The cause is forgotten. SmarTwin shows OEE per machine per shift, live, on the same screen as the line supervisor — close the loop in minutes, not days.

// THE PAIN

OEE numbers come weekly from a paper system. By the time we see a problem, the shift is over. The same chronic downtime causes keep showing up but nobody can isolate why because the data is aggregated to oblivion. We're plateaued at 66% OEE and don't know what to fix first.

FAQ

Questions buyers actually ask.

SmarTwin™ is the telemetry layer of the Wistwin® digital twin platform. It reads signals from PLCs, sensors, and manual entry across your plant floor and turns them into live OEE, downtime, scrap, and throughput dashboards. Refreshed every 3 seconds. Visible on every shop-floor screen — Plant Head wall, supervisor mobile, MD scorecard. Indian plants use SmarTwin to move from weekly Excel OEE reports to real-time visibility.
Yes. This is exactly what Wistwin is built for. For legacy machines without PLCs, we deploy edge sensor kits (vibration, temperature, current) that retrofit non-invasively. For machines with no instrumentation at all, the supervisor mobile app lets operators log shift events in seconds with multilingual buttons. We meet your plant where it is — we don't ask you to ripandreplace.
Siemens (S7-300, S7-400, S7-1200, S7-1500), Allen-Bradley/Rockwell (CompactLogix, ControlLogix), Mitsubishi (Q-series, FX-series), Omron (CJ, NJ, NX), Delta (DVP, AS), Schneider (M340, M580). Connection via OPC-UA, Modbus TCP, MQTT. Custom connectors built on request — typically 2-3 weeks.
The edge gateway buffers up to 7 days of data locally and syncs when network returns. No data loss. Local shop-floor screens continue to display live OEE from the edge — the dashboard doesn't depend on cloud connectivity. This matters in Indian plants where network drops are common in Tier-2 industrial belts.
Yes. Standard OEE (Availability × Performance × Quality) ships by default, but every parameter is configurable per plant, per line, per product. Some customers prefer TEEP (Total Effective Equipment Performance) which adds scheduled vs unscheduled time. Both supported. Custom KPIs (FTQ, FPY, OPE, ALOR) can be defined in the configuration UI without code.
Pilot (single line): 6–8 weeks. Includes PLC connector setup, edge gateway install, OEE calculation configuration, supervisor mobile rollout, shop-floor screen deployment. Plant rollout: 10–14 weeks for all lines. Multi-plant: 4–6 months for hub-and-spoke architecture. Most customers see their first shop-floor live-OEE screen within 30 days of pilot kickoff.
Yes. SmarTwin runs on AWS Mumbai (ap-south-1) by default. On-premises deployment available for customers with air-gap or data-residency requirements (typical for defence, certain pharma, and PSU plants). DPDP Act-compliant. ISO 27001 certification in progress (Q3 2026).
SmarTwin is priced as a Layer 2 module on the Wistwin platform — Run tier. Pricing is per-line per-year, with edge gateway hardware billed separately at cost. Indian customers in the ₹100–500 Cr revenue band typically see an 11-month payback on OEE improvement alone, before any other module is added.
Yes. AssetTwin is the foundation layer — every sensor event needs to be tagged to a specific asset, area, and unit in the hierarchy. We typically deploy AssetTwin and SmarTwin in parallel during pilot: 4 weeks of AssetTwin import + structuring, then SmarTwin connector deployment in weeks 4-8.
Hub-and-spoke. Each plant runs its own local SmarTwin reading from local PLCs. A central corporate SmarTwin aggregates KPIs across all plants. Group COO sees one cross-plant view; plant supervisors work in their local view. Cross-plant benchmarking — "Why does Plant A's Line 3 outperform Plant B's identical Line 3?" — is a frequent group-level use case.
