Scale automotive operations without rewiring your stack

Connect PLCs, SCADA, MES, and plant IT systems in one place. FlowFuse helps teams monitor, automate, and standardize production workflows across plants in real time.

The Problem Today

  • Data exists, but responses are still manual and inconsistent across teams and systems.

  • Improvements don't scale: pilots work in one plant but require rework and cause execution drift across sites.

  • Workflow logic is fragmented across PLC scripts, MES customizations, spreadsheets, and local practices, making maintenance, traceability, and quality containment reactive.

What You Get with FlowFuse

  • One platform to connect OT data (PLCs, SCADA, sensors, MES) with IT systems (ERP, CMMS, analytics, reporting).

  • Low-code automation built on Node-RED so engineers can ship and iterate flows quickly.

  • Dev/test/prod environments to safely roll out standardized workflows across plants.

Key Outcomes for Automotive Manufacturers

Reduce downtime response delays with faster escalation and coordinated actions.

Improve traceability and quality containment by standardizing data and workflows.

Deploy best practices across plants to reduce execution drift.

Use Cases

Automotive assembly line with robotic welding stations and real-time production monitoring for line stoppage detection and incident management.

Line stoppage detection and context-rich incident workflows — alerts create maintenance tickets with plant context.

Vehicle manufacturing quality inspection area with production dashboards supporting traceability and quality containment workflows.

Quality containment and traceability dashboards with automated containment actions.

Large-scale automotive production facility with standardized manufacturing processes deployed across multiple production lines.

Changeover and setup standardization, rolled out across lines and plants with controlled deployments.

Used by automotive teams to standardize plant operations on top of Node-RED
