System Architecture

The SAKSHAM System Architecture is a comprehensive and intelligently designed framework that ensures seamless connectivity, real-time control, and advanced data insights — right from the field level to enterprise and cloud analytics.

Level 0 -The Field Devices or Process Layer

All real-world industrial equipment and instruments generate critical operational data at this layer.

Includes:-

CNC Machines
Robotics
VFDs / MCCs / iMCCss
Servo Drives
Sensors and Transmitters

Devices communicate through industrial protocols:-

EtherCAT
Modbus TCP/IP
PROFINET
Ethernet/IP
This is the origin point of all process data, forming the foundation for higher-level control and monitoring.

Level 1 - The Control Layer

Responsible for real-time control and deterministic processing across the plant.

Powered by SAKSHAM Hardware:-

Executes precise logic operations through advanced SAKSHAM CPUs.
Ensures accurate, stable, and safe industrial control.
Provides reliable hardware-based automation backbone.

I/O and Communication Handling:-

Manage distributed input/output using S700 and S800 I/O racks.
Seamlessly integrates with communication modules.
Maintains continuous and efficient data flow throughout the system.
Forms the foundation for consistent, reliable, and safe plant-wide automation.

Level 2 - The Supervisory OT Layer

The heart of SCADA operations, enabling real-time supervision, control, and decision-making.

Key SCADA Components:-

Engineering Station for system configuration and project management.
SCADA Runtime for real-time monitoring and control execution.
Operator control interface with detailed process visualization.
Alarm monitoring and management across the plant.
Historical trend analysis for performance insights.

Secure IT–OT Communication:-

A dedicated firewall ensures secure communication between OT and IT layers.
Protects plant operations from cyber threats and unauthorized access.
Maintains safe, seamless data exchange with enterprise systems.
Ensures supervisory visibility, operational integrity, and plant-wide cybersecuritye.

Level 3 - The Enterprise Connectivity Layer

Links Operational Technology (OT) with enterprise-level Information Technology (IT) systems.

Enterprise Connectivity and Remote Access:-

Secure RDP access for remote monitoring and centralized control.
Internet-enabled connectivity for plant-wide accessibility.
Enables centralized management of critical industrial systems.
Ensures plant data is securely available beyond local boundaries.

Organizational Integration:-

Supports enterprise-wide data sharing and collaboration.
Enhances cross-department coordination through real-time insights.
Strengthens centralized decision-making with timely operational data.
Improves overall organizational efficiency and visibility.
Ensures that plant operations are securely connected, accessible, and aligned with enterprise strategy.

Level 4 - The Cloud and Insights Layer

Designed for advanced analytics, centralized storage, and enterprise-wide visualization.

Cloud Data Processing:-

All plant and system data is securely pushed to the cloud.
Ensures scalable and reliable data storage for long-term use.
Provides global accessibility for monitoring and analysis.

Insights and Advanced Analytics:-

Real-time dashboards for monitoring key plant metrics.
Historical data analysis for understanding long-term trends.
KPI tracking to measure efficiency and performance
Predictive analytics to forecast failures and optimize operations.
Empowers enterprises to make data-driven decisions and continuously enhance operational productivity.

Together, these five levels form a complete end-to-end automation ecosystem, ensuring that every process - from field data acquisition to cloud-based analytics - operates with seamless connectivity, real-time visibility, and intelligent automation. The SAKSHAM System Architecture redefines industrial efficiency by transforming data into intelligence and operations into smart, connected enterprises.
