Data Acquisition using Arrowhead Framework for Condition Based Maintenance of Industrial Equipment

As Industry 4.0 and Internet of Things are established across factories and enterprises, the interest for learning more about these concepts and the possibilities they provide for condition based maintenance is expressed by a factory in Sweden. By addressing the aspects of Internet of Things and Industry 4.0, a system for performing data acquisition from sensors in an industrial environment is developed using Arrowhead Framework. This framework is evaluated around its suitability for this kind of application, and regarding what the framework may provide to the factory compared to other solutions and systems. A solution featuring a system based on Arrowhead Framework is developed, implemented, and briefly tested. The system is successful in performing data acquisition, and Arrowhead Framework is considered a viable option that may be used to provide a system tailored for different purposes, presumed that the factory is prepared to allocate resources on developing a solution around it
