Fujitsu Limited today announced that it has with Intel Corporation carried out a field trial to visualize manufacturing processes at Shimane Fujitsu Limited, which primarily manufactures notebook PCs. The field trial linked the FUJITSU Cloud Service IoT Platform with the Intel® IoT Gateway. As a result of this trial, the companies were able to rationalize functionality testing and repair processes on Shimane Fujitsu’s manufacturing line, and in line with this, cut additional shipping costs that resulted from delays by 30%.
The trial was a part of the IoT collaboration with Intel, launched in May 2015.
