Automotive parts manufacturer in Germany implements Qmulus to advance digital transformation

Qmulus, Finsterwalde, Germany announced that a leading European automotive parts manufacturer has implemented its digital platform to initiate a major transformation in smart manufacturing. This marks the client’s first step toward digitalization, with a focus on enhancing furnace operations through remote monitoring and data collection.

The client selected Qmulus to address a critical need for digital control of industrial belt furnaces, which previously lacked any remote system. The initial implementation connects two key furnace assets to the Qmulus platform, allowing for real-time operational visibility and control, independent of operator location.

The decision to deploy Qmulus was shaped by the manufacturer’s prior experience with UPC-Marathon, reflecting a foundation of trust and established collaboration in the sector. The project is secured through a multi-year Software as a Service (SaaS) agreement, underlining a long-term commitment to operational improvement and scalable technology integration.

Although the implementation is in its early stages, Qmulus stated that the groundwork has been set for substantial efficiency and productivity gains. The company emphasized that this partnership demonstrates its growing role in supporting manufacturers with connected, data-driven systems designed for long-term impact.
