CESMII - i3X Technology Provider

Standards-Based Smart Manufacturing​

SmartRun Tech is a Member of CESMII (Clean Energy Smart Manufacturing Innovation Institute) and a Technology Provider of the Smart Manufacturing Innovation Platform (SMIP) built on i3X—the Open API that enables Manufacturing Applications to run on any Compliant Platform, not just ours.

Why We Joined CESMII ?

CESMII (Clean Energy Smart Manufacturing Innovation Institute) is the U.S. Department of Energy Backed National Institute for Smart Manufacturing. It brings Equipment Vendors, Platform Providers, and Manufacturers together around Open Standards instead of One-Off Proprietary Integrations.

As a CESMII Member, SmartRun Tech builds directly on that Foundation. Our Platform is designed around CESMII’s Published SM Profiles and the i3X Specification,enabling the Solutions implemented on our platform to seamlessly interoperate with other i3X Compliant Platform Based Solutions.

The standard i3X: the standard powering our platform

i3X (Industrial Information Interoperability Exchange) is CESMII’s Open API for how Applications Explore, Query, Subscribe To, and Write Back Plant Data, regardless of the Platform or Protocol underneath.

Instead of every Analytics Tool, Dashboard, or AI Application requiring a Custom Integration for each Vendor, i3X standardizes a single Data Contract built around Namespaces, Objects, and Hierarchy. SmartRun Tech built its Smart Manufacturing Innovation Platform (SMIP) as a Technology Provider directly on this Open Standard, making our Applications i3X Native from the ground up.

Why It Matters

An Open Standard Accelerates Adoption

Standardizing on i3X changes the economics of getting a smart manufacturing project off the ground.

Faster Integration

Applications built once against i3X connect to new lines and plants without custom point-to-point engineering.

Vendor Neutral

Customers keep control of their technology stack, with no lock-in to one supplier’s proprietary API.

 

Lower Total Cost

Reusable SM Profiles and one common contract cut the engineering hours typically spent per site.

Future-Proof

As CESMII publishes new companion specs CNC, energy, ISA-95 job control the same architecture extends to cover them.

Standardized Security

Access control and authentication follow one governed model instead of a different scheme per integration.

 

Ecosystem Access

Membership connects SmartRun Tech, and by extension our customers, to a growing library of published profiles.
