Unfortunately, it is difficult to improve a process with inadequate data. Many of the SMEs in developing countries are still using manufacturing machines from the yesteryears which do not have computational and connectivity capabilities. Therefore, we developed an end-to-end Internet-of-Things (IoT) solution, which reliably tracks the production performance of manufacturing machines. This paper elaborates on the designs and the rationale behind it. As of the writing of this paper, our IoT system has been deployed in real manufacturing environment and has been running for approximately 90 days on a 24/7 basis without data lost. © 2021 IEEE. publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. date: 2021 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Ooi, Boonyaik Yaik and Lee, Wai Kong and Schubert, Martin J.W. and Ooi, Yuwei and Chin, Cheeyang and Woo, Wing Hon (2021) A Flexible and Reliable Internet-of-Things Solution for Real-Time Production Tracking.
