Product-as-a-service (PaaS) offerings have advantages and potential for transforming societies to a circular economy and for improving environmental performance. Original equipment manufacturers providing PaaS offerings take higher responsibility for product performances in the use phase than those selling products. This responsibility can be supported by digital technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and big data analytics (BDA). However, insights on how data of product designs and in-use services are managed for PaaS offerings in product lifecycle management (PLM) software are scarce. This mini-review first gives an account of extant major research works that successfully applied BDA, a specific technique of artificial intelligence (AI), to cases in industry through a systematic literature review. Then, these works are analyzed to capture requirements for a PLM system that will exploit the IoT and BDA for PaaS offerings. The captured requirements are summarized as (1) facilitate product and service integration, (2) address multiple lifecycles, (3) adopt an ontology approach encompassing several product standards, and (4) include reading data to process in an interoperation layer.

Industrial Internet platforms have the ability to access, manage and control product-related data, information and knowledge across all the lifecycle phases (beginning of life, middle of life and end of life). Traditional product lifecycle management/product data management software have many limitations when it comes to solving product lifecycle management challenges, like interoperability for instance. Industrial Internet platforms can provide real-time management of data and information along all the phases of a product’s lifecycle. Platform openness in combination with the above-mentioned industrial internet platform characteristics helps solve the product lifecycle management challenges. This article describes the product lifecycle management challenges in detail from the existing literature and presents solutions using industrial internet platform openness and related dimensions as well as sub-dimensions. A wide pool of platforms is narrowed down to specific platforms that can solve the documented product lifecycle management challenges and allow the manufacturing companies to collaborate as well as enhance their business. We also present in detail managerial implications toward long-term and sustainable selection of industrial internet platform.

Das Internet der Dinge (Internet of Things, IoT) ist die nächste Generation des Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). Physikalische Daten werden durch IoT in die digitale Welt transportiert. Durch die Wahrnehmung und die darauf basierten Entscheidungen von Menschen bringt die erweiterte Realität (Augmented Reality, AR) im Gegenzug digitale Informationen zurück in die physikalische Welt. CAD und PLM sind die Vermittler, die diese beiden Gebiete zusammenhalten. Das alles macht aber nur dann Sinn, wenn die Realität in der Werkshalle betrachtet wird. Wie passt IoT in den Produktlebens- zyklus eines realen Produktes? Anhand eines Produktbeispiels des PTC-Kunden Bosch Rexroth wird beschrieben, wie ein vernetztes Produkt die Grundlage für die eigene Überarbeitung bietet und dazu beiträgt, neue Marktsegmente zu definieren und auch dank AR-Technologie eine bessere Verbindung zwischen Hersteller und Kunden zu schaffen.

The new industrial revolution Industry 4.0, connecting manufacturing process with digital technologies that can communicate, analyze, and use information for intelligent decision making includes Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) to help manufactures and consumers for efficient controlling and monitoring. This work presents the design and implementation of an IIoT ecosystem for smart factories. The design is based on Siemens Simatic IoT2040, an intelligent industrial gateway that is connected to modbus sensors publishing data onto Network Platform for Internet of Everything (NETPIE). The design demonstrates the capabilities of Simatic IoT2040 by taking Python, Node-Red, and Mosca into account that works simultaneously on the device.
