Peakboard is an innovative low-code solution for industrial data visualisation that has been specially developed for use in production, logistics and other operational areas. Peakboard can be used to create customised dashboards that make relevant information visible in real time exactly where it is needed - directly at the workplace, on machines or on large displays in the production hall. The solution combines OT (Operational Technology) and IT in a simple way and consists of a combination of free design software (Peakboard Designer) and powerful visualisation hardware (Peakboard Box) or a BYOD version (Bring Your Own Device). This allows data from a wide variety of sources to be brought together, structured and utilised - without any complex infrastructure or costly IT projects. What makes Peakboard special is its ability to visualise production, machine or ERP data in real time and interactively. Getting started is easy thanks to the low-code approach, as the Peakboard Designer user interface works via drag-and-drop and can be operated without programming knowledge. At the same time, the solution offers a high degree of flexibility: Peakboard supports numerous data sources, including OPC UA, MQTT, Siemens S7, Modbus, SAP, SQL databases, Excel, REST APIs, SharePoint and many more. This makes Peakboard the interface between IT and OT - clear, fast and directly at the point of action. A key advantage of Peakboard is the ability to interact. Dashboards are not only there to display data, but can also process input - for example via touchscreens, scanners, buttons or RFID readers. For example, employees can report faults, indicate material requirements or confirm work steps. At the same time, each Peakboard Box runs decentrally and autonomously, which means that no central server infrastructure is required. This saves costs, reduces complexity and makes the solution robust - ideal for industrial environments. By using Peakboard, companies benefit from greater transparency and faster response times. Information that was previously scattered across different systems or only available with a time delay is suddenly available in real time - visually processed and tailored to the specific application. This creates a better basis for decision-making, processes can be optimised and employees can be empowered. Another advantage is the ease of implementation. As Peakboard can be used without a complex infrastructure and thanks to its simple operation by specialist departments, projects can often be realised within a few days. This makes Peakboard particularly suitable for agile improvement projects or quick proof-of-concepts. Typical areas of application are production lines with display of OEE, cycle times and order status, assembly stations with digital worker guidance, logistics areas with material flow visualisation or stock levels, quality management with error evaluation and maintenance with fault messages and machine data. One practical example is Johannes Giesser Messerfabrik GmbH. Here, machine data is combined with SAP information and visualised directly in production. This reduces queries, saves time and supports employees in their daily work. Peakboard is also used at Merck Contract Logistics to replace physical shop floor boards with digital dashboards and bring more transparency to warehouse processes - together with technology partner Softing. Peakboard consists of three central components: the free Peakboard Designer for creating dashboards, the Peakboard Box as a compact hardware solution for the industry and the BYOD option for operation on your own hardware or virtual machines. Thanks to partnerships, for example with Softing, even complex machine parks can be easily connected and data can be utilised efficiently. To summarise: Peakboard brings data to where it is really needed - on the shop floor, in assembly, in the warehouse or in maintenance. The solution helps companies to make their processes more visible, efficient and responsive. It enables employees to make better decisions, act faster and continuously improve processes - without major IT projects, but with maximum practical benefits.
