Benefits

Low-Risk Product Development

Want to create a smart IoT machine product, but concerned with its future ROI? Advantech's smart machine turn-key solution helps you build a prototype quickly to help assess your ROI before rolling into production.
Expedited Proof-of-Concept

If you're struggling to put all the pieces of your smart machine puzzle together, don't worry. Advantech has you covered. Our turn-key smart machine builder solution helps deploy and assess a Proof-of-Concept (PoC) quickly.
Streamlined Migration

We're happy to offer Professional Design Services to help with custom pieces, hardware, and software--any issues discovered during the PoC. The full end-to-end solution means you don't experience migration issue compared to other competitors' pieced-together solutions.
Accelerated Time to Market

According to a survey, our OEM partners estimate a smart machine project cycle can normally take anywhere from 18 to 24 months to complete. Using Advantech's smart machine turn-key solution can significantly shorten project timelines to 12 months or shorter.
Increased Service Revenue Streams

Digital transformation of your processes means you're able to provide more service-based products, such as preventative maintenance services, to customers.
