Where digital and ecologic transition meet

Where digital and ecologic transition meet

We can say that those two concepts meet in NeXT. More precisely in our logo The green and blue, as the “green” and digital.   The plan Next Generation EU testifies the sinergy between green economy and digitalization, setting the bases for a double transition,...

What it means to digitize processes: Pt.6

We have reached the end of the digitization process Or better… the most important… most advanced part is missing. In fact, we have reached the top of what we mean today when we talk about the digitization process. In this last episode we will talk about something as...
What it means to digitize processes: Pt.5

What it means to digitize processes: Pt.5

In the fifth episode we’ll approach the reality that concerns logistics. It’s a reality through which the digitization can do and give a lot in order to improve productivity, flow speed and the improvement of the quality of the products. Resume of the previous...

What it means to digitize processes: Pt.4

In this episode, we’ll continue our digitization route in order to improve our performances. This time we’ll pay particular attention to another of the three KPIs monitored with the OEE: quality. Resume of the previous episodes We started digitizing the performances...

What it means to digitize processes: Pt.1

With this episode we’ll start a journey going back through experiences in order to find out, step by step, how we could improve our machines (production), thanks to the progressive digitization of the processes. All of that until we reach the “Smart factory”. Why is...
