DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION
We develop digital solutions that simplify processes, connect data in a meaningful way, and put people at the center – for greater efficiency, security, and sustainable success.
Our Digital Transformation Unit at GEMÜ thinks comprehensively and globally. We bring together technologies, processes, and people to strengthen our customers' competitiveness. We always work cooperatively – in close collaboration with colleagues, partners, and users. For us, digitalization means reducing the workload for people, simplifying processes, and creating added value.
Our valves have always been at the heart of industrial processes. In the Digital Transformation Unit, we are driving development forward – from product to partner, from valve to intelligent solution. Our goal is to rethink the world of processes through digital innovations: more connected, more efficient, and more transparent throughout the entire life cycle.
HOW WE ARE SHAPING THE DIGITAL FUTURE AT GEMÜ
Our digital transformation has many facets – and one clear goal: added value for our customers. We are focusing our activities on four key areas in order to implement digitalization in a practical, economical, and sustainable manner.
We consider the entire life cycle of a valve – from the initial idea to engineering and production to operation. This results in digital solutions that simplify planning, optimize supply chains, and maximize operating times. In this way, we directly link innovation with measurable business benefits.
We create lean, robust, and automated processes – right down to our customers' factories. This enables us to reduce errors, increase efficiency, and improve responsiveness. As a result, production lines become more resilient and future-proof.
We ensure smooth, secure data flows from the machine to the IT architecture. This lays the foundation for digital factories and AI-supported workflows. This enables real-time decisions and continuous process optimization.
Digitalization can only succeed with people who actively shape change. We promote digital skills, agile working methods, and a resilient corporate culture. This creates an organization that not only accepts change, but drives it forward.
Our technological expertise
For us, innovation means combining technological excellence and digital intelligence. With two core competencies—the design of the digital process plant and the use of artificial intelligence—we create the foundation for efficiency, safety, and sustainability.
In our Digital Transformation Unit, we lay the foundation for the process plants of the future. Networked valves, unique identification, and continuous data flows make operations more transparent, efficient, and secure. Real-time data enables predictive maintenance, while smart services such as remote maintenance and notifications increase flexibility. An interoperable architecture ensures compatibility and rapid scaling – even in highly regulated environments.
Artificial intelligence is changing how process plants are planned, operated, and maintained. Our approach: use AI where it creates real added value. Intelligent data analysis improves processes and operational safety, while generative AI supports employees in planning and service. Secure networking makes processes more robust, efficient, and sustainable – a decisive step toward the intelligent plant of the future.
HOW DIGITAL SERVICES ARE REVOLUTIONIZING PROCESSES
With the introduction of our CONEXO platform, BWT Aqua AG (CH), a leader in water treatment for industry and pharmaceuticals, has digitized its service and documentation processes – efficiently, paperlessly, and with end-to-end traceability.
The company was looking for a way to modernize its service and documentation processes. Paper-based processes were time-consuming, prone to errors, and made complete traceability difficult.
The introduction of the CONEXO platform made maintenance and service fully digital. Starting with digital diaphragm replacement via QR/RFID identification, complete workflows followed: from planning and storage to mobile execution and digital signatures to automatic ERP documentation.
The new standard since the beginning of 2023: completely paperless maintenance and seamless traceability. Employees save time every day by no longer having to search for documents – creating increased efficiency and satisfaction. This enables time savings of up to 70% for field maintenance work and around 65% for customer goods receipts.
