Raw Description
At Data Digitalisation Limited, our R&D team is making manufacturing transparent through our IIoT solution PTApp. The app is specifically developed to enable remote visualising of the factory floor and digitalising factory management. Using cloud computing, PTApp can generate real-time operational reports based on big data, which greatly assist manufacturers to remotely improve efficiency across their production lines and make agile adjustments with access to KPIs. Working with end-users, our team can customise unique production reports for our clients, from OEE reports to reports on productivity, fault alarms and energy consumption. | Description | PTApp, utilising IIoT technologies, enables remote factory visualisation through real-time reports, customised KPIs to assist digital management and improve manufacturing efficiency || Product | PTApp directly collects data from the CNC controllers of production equipment and is compatible with mainstream controllers from brands such as Fanuc, Mitsubishi and Brother NC that are favoured by manufacturers in Greater China. Utilising cloud computing technology to process the data collected, PTApp can generate real-time operational reports such as OEE, overall factory productivity, equipment and staff performance, yield rate, machine downtime and equipment maintenance alerts etc, thus assisting our clients to achieve their corporate goals through designing and successfully implementing IIoT technologies and enabling them to remotely improve their productivity, efficiency and performance across their factories.

Strategic Analysis

Executive Brief

Data Digitalisation Limited (DDL) is an Industrial IoT (IIoT) specialist focused on the "Digital Twin" and smart manufacturing sectors. Their flagship product, PTApp, integrates directly with mainstream CNC controllers (Fanuc, Mitsubishi, Brother) to provide real-time OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness), fault diagnostics, and energy consumption analytics. They bridge the gap between heavy machinery and cloud-based decision-making.

Strategic Fit & Lead Score

Lead Score: 58/100

  • Why this Score? DDL is a software/systems integrator rather than a direct material user. However, they are a "Gatekeeper" to the precision machining and high-end manufacturing industry in Greater China. Their software identifies efficiency bottlenecks—many of which (tool wear, thermal drift, downtime) are materials science problems that 6C's diamond technology is uniquely positioned to solve.

6C Solutions Proposal

Application Area 6C Solution Technical Value Prop
Predictive Maintenance PCD-Coated Tooling PTApp monitors tool life and OEE. By upgrading client CNC tools to 6C Poly Crystalline Diamond (PCD), tool life increases 10-50x compared to carbide, directly improving the OEE metrics DDL tracks.
Harsh Environment Sensing BDD Sensors Manufacturers using PTApp for "Energy & Waste" monitoring can integrate 6C Boron Doped Diamond (BDD) electrodes for real-time chemical sensing in CNC coolants or industrial wastewater.
Thermal Stability PCD Heat Spreaders High-speed CNC operations monitored by PTApp often suffer from thermal expansion/drift. 6C Diamond heat spreaders (2000 W/mK) in critical machine components stabilize precision.
IIoT Edge Hardware SCD/PCD Substrates The IIoT gateways and "Cloud Boxes" used by DDL require high-reliability power electronics. 6C diamond substrates enable smaller, fanless, high-power edge devices for factory floors.
System Verticalization MPCVD Reactor Sales For DDL’s top-tier manufacturing clients, 6C can provide custom MPCVD reactors to bring high-performance diamond coating or semiconductor growth in-house.

Engagement Hooks

  • Technical Question: "Your PTApp identifies 'Machine Downtime' and 'Tooling Faults' as major OEE killers. Have you considered how integrating 6C’s proprietary PCD coating data into your predictive algorithms could allow your clients to run spindle speeds 3x faster without compromising tool integrity?"
  • Value Statement: "6C provides the 'Hard-Tech' materials (Diamond) that allow your IIoT software to report record-breaking OEE and productivity gains for your CNC manufacturing clients."

Potential Technical Synergy: The "Smart Diamond" Loop

6C can provide the physical material upgrades that DDL’s software validates.

  • Step 1: PTApp identifies a specific CNC line is underperforming due to frequent tool changes (high downtime).
  • Step 2: 6C provides custom MPCVD-coated diamond tools or PCD inserts.
  • Step 3: PTApp captures the real-time data showing a dramatic increase in yield and a decrease in energy-per-part (Diamond's low friction reduces spindle load).
  • Outcome: A joint "Hardware + Software" optimization package for the Greater China manufacturing market.
