Self-Diagnostic

How much does your floor handle data on its own?

See your floor’s data self-reliance across six areas in a single diagnostic.

More equipment, but is your data still living apart?

Most floors don’t lack tools—they lack the connectivity to link scattered equipment, so everything takes manual effort. Check your floor’s self-reliance with 12 questions, as a score and a diagnostic.

The Wall

The data-connection wall manufacturing floors face

Equipment grows and data piles up, yet the floor still runs on “manual work.”

I need the manual, but first I have to find where the manual even is.

I manage three machines, all on different protocols, so I end up exporting CSVs and pasting them into slides.

Call the SI vendor and a quote comes first. That alone costs KRW 20M every year.

Every time a new machine arrives, we reconfigure the whole integration from scratch.

Siloed, heterogeneous systems

Legacy and modern systems are built separately and never connect. People end up stitching MES, ERP, WMS, and PLC together by hand.

Burden concentrated on one person

One person handles three or more systems on average. Response varies with skill level, and dependence on outside vendors follows.

Recurring vendor lock-in

Even after one integration, every new machine brings new costs. Technology, knowledge, and bargaining power all stay tied to the vendor.

KRW 20–30M in annual outsourcing costs

Maintenance and customization outsourcing alone runs KRW 20–30M a year per plant. Multiply across lines and plants and the number explodes.

What a factory needs isn’t “yet another new system,” but connecting scattered systems and data to build a self-reliant operating environment.

The Solution

While conventional software stays tied to SI, Hypercanal hands control back to the floor

No waiting, no outsourcing—the floor does it directly. See at a glance how it differs from typical SI and in-house development.

The Hypercanal Way

AI agents unify scattered hardware, and even non-engineers run it themselves

Three stages—connect, learn, and operate on your own. Equipment, knowledge, and operations all move at the node level.

01 · CONNECT BY NODE

Connect with nodes

No coding, no SI—even non-experts do it themselves. Connect equipment, sensors, and upper systems at once with drag-and-drop.

02 · LEARN PER NODE

Turn field knowledge into assets

AI agents learn field knowledge—product manuals, error handling, quality standards—and accumulate it as company assets.

03 · OPERATE YOURSELF

Operate on your own

Collected field data combines with node knowledge to build a self-reliant operating environment that manufacturers run themselves.

Manufacturing-specific on-premise architecture

Core data and know-how as internal assets

All data processing happens inside your own servers, so core data accumulates securely.

AI, securely and without cost pressure

Training, inference, decisions, and knowledge accumulation all run inside your infrastructure—use it without usage limits.

AI even for security-sensitive industries

It runs even in air-gapped environments, so defense, semiconductor, and energy sectors that delayed AI can finally use it on the floor.

One Workflow

From connection to response— one workflow the floor actually needs

For both field teams running the plant and partners delivering hardware and solutions, connection, dashboards, and AI operations all flow as one.

Canal Builder

Connect your equipment yourself — no hand-offs

Protocols and global hardware nodes come ready—pull them in with one click. Field teams connect directly, and partners build and scale delivery systems without outsourcing.

  • One minute to connect a sensor—from collection to upper-system integration on one screen
  • Instantly connect field-protocol nodes like OPC-UA and Modbus
  • Push collected OT data straight to MES, ERP, and upper PLCs
Widget Studio

Pick only what you need, build your own dashboard

Drag and drop 50+ industrial widgets—no queries, no code, just pick a node. Dashboard changes are no longer an outsourcing or dev task.

  • Built-in industrial widgets: gauges, trends, spectra, tables, and more
  • No more waiting on outside vendors to add, edit, or swap charts
  • Per-dashboard view/edit permissions and custom views by line or process
AI O&M · Knowledge assets

The more you use it on-prem, the smarter the AI gets

Manuals, error handling, and process know-how are learned and accumulated as your assets. Routine operations get automated so people focus on higher-value work.

  • Learns past issue patterns and recommends responses for similar situations
  • Ask in one line of natural language and get answers grounded in accumulated knowledge
  • Data and know-how accumulate and stay only within your infrastructure
Field Q&A

We answer the floor’s questions with real features

These are the questions production-engineering and plant staff face on the floor—and the ones HW makers and SI partners hear from customers every time.

Q.

A machine suddenly throws an error code, but the non-expert operator doesn’t even know where the manual is.

It instantly highlights the node where the anomaly occurred. The AI agent combines the manual learned for that node with the error code and past response history to suggest instructions, then guides preventive action through follow-up questions.

Canal Builder + AI Agent
Field · Expert-level response, even from non-experts Partner · Fewer post-delivery maintenance calls
Q.

I want to add a new metric to the dashboard—do I have to call an outside vendor again?

Drag the widget you want from 100+ industrial widgets and just change the data-source property. Operators can configure hierarchy levels themselves, so calls to developers and vendors drop.

Widget Studio
Field · Dashboard edits at zero cost Partner · Customization requests absorbed as product features
Q.

Hundreds of auto-reports piled up over six months—I want to summarize and compare just the important ones.

“Compare the top 3 lines by defect rate over the last six months.” Ask in one line and the AI combines per-node knowledge assets with accumulated reports to return an instant summary, comparison, and key insights.

AI Agent · Data analysis
Field · 90% less time spent searching reports Partner · Automated customer reporting lightens operations
Q.

A new machine just arrived—do I have to negotiate extra development again?

Just add a node—no separate development estimate. After automatic protocol detection, operators can set up two-way MES/ERP integration themselves.

CASE 01

Ultra-precision finishing automation

A major Korean power-equipment maker · Gas-turbine blade surface finishing (polishing) process

12×Productivity gain 1/day → 12/day
Gas-turbine blade finishing automation cell with the Hypercanal operations screen

A blade finishing process that ran at one piece per person per day had to scale to 12 pieces a day through automation—without giving up micrometer-level quality. We unified and learned every quality-affecting variable—finishing RPM, force, and speed, robot motion, coating thickness, ambient temperature and humidity—to build an operating brain that derives the optimal settings for each model.

BEFORE
  • Manual process capped at 1 piece/day
  • Finishing quality depended on operator skill
  • No process data, so root causes couldn’t be traced
HOW
  • Five heterogeneous systems turned into nodes with Canal Builder
  • AI Agent recommends optimal settings per model
  • Analysis and reporting fully completed within the air-gapped network
RESULT
  • 12× productivity gain (1 → 12 per day)
  • Operator-independent, consistent finishing quality
  • Data turned into assets, supporting manager decisions
CASE 02

Ultra-high-voltage transformer & ESS PCS/BCP assembly and fastening

A power & industrial automation specialist · BCP (Battery Control Panel) production line

Company-wide MESUnified fastening history Global traceability secured
BCP fastening work with an Atlas Copco toolESS PCS Panel fastening dashboard screen

A company supplying core PCS/BCP units to global data centers was asked by its customer to provide torque, angle, and result data for each fastening operation. By combining Atlas Copco’s fastening solution with Hypercanal middleware, it tracked fastening history by operator, station, and product, and linked the full history to a unified MES.

BEFORE
  • Reliance on paper drawings and verbal handovers
  • Quality varied with each operator’s interpretation
  • Traceable work history was required
HOW
  • Step-by-step work instructions structured as nodes
  • Work progress and completion logged in real time
  • Operator authentication, fastening values, and signals managed together
RESULT
  • Fully switched to digital work orders
  • Standardized procedures minimized variance between operators
  • Work history logged automatically, securing delivery traceability
