Christoph Buchmann: 我在自动化行业拥有多年的经验,深刻理解市场上缺乏一个工具来快速评估自动化成本,这导致了iAutomate的创建。iAutomate旨在通过简化自动化解决方案的访问和加速与解决方案提供商之间的对话来促进工业4.0转型。它不仅能帮助解决方案提供商提高销售效率,还能赋能最终用户,让他们能够自行构建商业案例,从而获得内部支持和资金,最终推动自动化项目的实施。iAutomate作为一个解决方案验证工具,可以帮助用户在参加行业展会之前或之后更好地了解自动化解决方案,从而做出更明智的决策。 TJ Fanning: 我在仓储自动化领域拥有丰富的经验,致力于通过Kardex和iAutomate提高行业透明度,减少信息不对称。长期以来,自动化解决方案提供商普遍认为其价值在于定制化,这导致了缺乏价格透明度,阻碍了行业发展。自动化解决方案的实际成本远低于市场普遍认知,这主要是因为提供商花费大量时间在资质审核上,而忽略了较小的项目。iAutomate通过简化和加速设计概念化、高级预算等流程,使客户能够快速评估自动化解决方案的成本和可行性,并缩小选择范围。它还可以帮助最终用户更好地了解不同自动化技术的优缺点,从而做出更明智的决策。
