GoodLinker - Help Enterprises to Embrace Smart Manufacturing with AIoT Technologies

“I graduated from the department of mechanics, some of my college mates start to take over their family business at this moment. After years of develop manager experience in a multinational OEM corporation, my dream is to help manufacture small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to do digital transformation with advanced technologies.” GoodLinker Founder, Ethan Feng, shares his story.

GoodLinker develops smart factory tools with AIoT technologies. Our vision is to make smart manufacturing happen everywhere. The GoodLinker multi-background team redesigned the architecture and process to upgrade traditional equipment into smart machines.

There are more than 30 enterprise users from different industries in Taiwan includes metal processing, rubber, plastic, electroplating, casting, textile, PCB, SMT, 3DP, food processing, printing, breeding... etc. There are also have some use cases in the SEA market such as Vietnam now.

A cost-effective equipment data acquisition, cloud storage, and concatenation service

GoodLinker’s solution does not call for a massive system overhaul, as its AWS IoT Core certified device can be attached to existing machinery, turning it into “smart equipment” by adding computing, event handling, data acquisition, and cloud connectivity capabilities. The first stage of smart manufacturing is visualising production line data. With “GoodLinker Cloud of War Room”, it is available to monitor machinery, improve management and production efficiency, and reduce labour costs.

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are the backbone of the global economy. SMEs are responsible for up to 99% of all business establishments. For manufacturing SMEs, efficiency and productivity remain the name of the game, and smart manufacturing and smart factories begin with ensuring they have good, reliable data with which to make key decisions.

“Thanks to GoodLinker’s subscription model, a subscription service with a cloud dashboard and mobile app that gives business owners real-time data, malfunction alerts, and history reports. Our solutions are 10 times more economical and implementation time is 10 times faster (less than a week) compared to the typical onboarding process for new technologies,” Ethan Feng added.
