KaufFe Innovation - the expansion stages of the Bluebox

The Bluebox is currently divided into three levels. Level 1 is "descriptive analytics," the descriptive analysis in which insights into the current production status can be gained from historical and live data.

Level 2, the tower, incorporates diagnostic and predictive analytics. These analyses provide explanations for causes, effects, and interactions, and make predictions about future events. The focus here is on shop floor management and the continuous improvement process (CIP).

Level 3, the Datafacture, deals with "prescriptive analytics," or the analysis that mandates action. This involves concrete measures that can be taken in advance to prevent potential future problems. The focus here is on the development of AI (artificial intelligence), intelligent algorithms, machine learning, data science, and more.

General questions

Below you will find some answers.

  • What can I use the Bluebox for?

    For analyzing production data and organizing production processes in manufacturing plants with CNC machining centers, injection molding machines, production machines, and manual workstations. 


    The tool can capture, evaluate, and visualize actual and target states, and map requirements such as productivity, availability, OEE, energy management (ISO 50001), shop floor management, PDCA cycle, predictive maintenance, and trend analysis. 


    The Bluebox.SDI industry system excels particularly in organizing production processes in manufacturing plants and controlling the flow of goods, offering features such as work, order, and production planning; chaotic storage management; inventory control; tool management; maintenance; repair and servicing planning; shop floor data collection; quality management; batch and return tracking; task planning; document management; delivery and order management; shipping processing; invoice processing; complaint handling; and much more. 


    And the best part – all according to our guiding principle: 

    Keep it Simple & Efficient

  • What hardware components do I need?

    The Bluebox is hardware-independent. Installed on a standard gateway box, the Bluebox can be deployed decentrally, easily, and quickly in production and is also cloud- and web-enabled. 


    This also applies to energy measurement according to ISO 50001.  

  • How quickly can I expect to see initial results?

    The Bluebox is connected within a few hours. The first results are immediately visible.  

  • How is the display done?

     Machine, material, order, status, and time-related data is managed. 


    Dashboards with display, input, and selection options make it ideal for quality and energy management (ISO 50001), audits, and reporting. 


    Production and machine orders are planned and controlled via a web browser-based resource cockpit, live data, visualization, and a mobile app.  

  • What interfaces are available?

     Connecting machines of all types, as well as other operating and measuring equipment or existing systems (e.g., ERP), is quick and easy. 


    This also applies to measuring points and devices for energy management according to ISO 50001.  

  • Is communication with other systems also possible?

     The Bluebox is ideally suited as a standalone system or as a complement to your existing system. The tool can communicate with MES, MDE, ERP, QM, planning, and ERP systems from various manufacturers. 


    Connecting to these systems is very easy, fast, and secure.  

  • What happens to the collected data?

     The Bluebox includes a database. Data can be stored there or transferred to a storage location of your choice, such as a server. 


    Importantly, you can manage your data yourself.  

  • Can I also have my process data managed?

     At your request, we also handle the management and storage of your collected process data, including backup and system recovery. We offer solutions for this through ISO certification and GDPR compliance. 


    Our systems are operated in data centers in Germany and meet the ISO 27001 standard – ensuring high security and protection against unauthorized access. ISO 27001 is the leading international standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) and thus the most important cybersecurity certification.  

  • How can I generate value from the collected data?

     As a future-proof production system, the Bluebox grows seamlessly with your company. Integrated continuous improvement tools with features like data analytics, machine learning, and AI allow you to quickly and easily optimize your production as needed. 


    Shop floor management made easy – Keep it Simple & Efficient. 


    This also works perfectly with existing data stored in Excel, CSV, databases, or other existing IT systems. And all without any effort.  

  • How open and flexible is the solution?

     We help you equip your production and processes with the latest IoT standards, while enabling you to remain independent and open to future developments in the IoT world.  

  • What are the advantages for me?

     The Bluebox offers you the opportunity to easily, quickly, and reliably integrate your production into the modern IoT world. Thanks to open source and open hardware, you remain independent at all times. This saves you time, money, and hassle. The Bluebox.SDI perfectly supports you in implementing digital transformation and improving your energy and resource efficiency. 


    Process transparency is the prerequisite for this.  

  • BAFA funding available?

    The funding programs for digitalization, energy and environmental management support SMEs in implementing their digital transformation and improving their energy and resource efficiency. 


    Bluebox.Energy meets all the requirements and is on the BAFA's list of eligible software.
