To build a factory that meets demand for one of the world’s most iconic vehicles, you have to be driven. When KUKA Systems Group built a new factory for Jeep Wrangler bodies, it took advantage of the Internet of Things (IoT) to create a highly automated plant that connects as many as 60,000 devices and robots to a central data-management system.

When KUKA Systems Group built a new factory for Jeep Wrangler bodies, it took advantage of the Internet of Things (IoT) to create a highly automated plant that connects as many as 60,000 devices and robots to a central data-management system.
KUKA connected the factory’s robots and thousands of other devices to back-end monitoring systems. With a streamlined management environment, the system is able to adapt quickly to changes in production requirements, and powerful new access to data allows KUKA to drive actionable insights into factory operations.
