Litmus announced a new partnership with Oden Technologies to offer a turnkey solution for smart manufacturing. This includes out-of-the-box data acquisition from machines, advanced analytics, and machine learning.

Litmus Edge is a data intelligence platform to collect, normalize, and analyze large quantities of live data from industrial assets. Further, Oden provides the big data compute engine and machine learning, real-time, and predictive process metrics.

“We can get customers up and running by connecting to any machine and collecting data in minutes, then integrate that data with Oden so customers can see proven predictive and prescriptive applications to deliver value in under 30 days,” said co-founder and COO of Litmus John Younes, in a press release. “Litmus provides intelligence at the edge, and Oden provides the cloud-based analytics and machine learning necessary to predict and prevent problems, then prescribe actions that lead to better business decisions.”

Litmus Edge is deployed at the edge and can connect to any PLC, CNC, sensor, robotic system or SCADA/MES/Historian with no programming with its abundance of pre-built drivers – 250 to be exact. After connection, data is normalized automatically.

Data is fed to the Oden Industrial AI platform, fed by Litmus, offering real-time metrics and reporting.
