Manufacturing software for the modern factory floor
We build Industry 4.0 solutions that bring digital intelligence to manufacturing operations. Our platforms connect machines, track production, monitor quality, and provide real-time visibility into factory operations.
Manufacturing development challenges we solve
IoT & Sensor Integration
Connecting factory machines and sensors to software systems requires handling diverse protocols, high-frequency data streams, and edge computing capabilities.
Production Visibility
Factory managers need real-time dashboards showing production output, machine utilization, defect rates, and downtime — not reports delivered hours later.
Legacy System Modernization
Many manufacturing operations run on legacy ERP and MES systems. Modernization must happen without disrupting active production lines.
Our manufacturing development services
Production Monitoring & MES
Real-time production tracking with OEE dashboards, machine utilization analytics, and automated production reporting.
IoT & Predictive Maintenance
Sensor data collection, machine health monitoring, and predictive maintenance alerts to prevent unplanned downtime.
Quality Management Systems
Digital quality inspection workflows, defect tracking, SPC charts, and compliance documentation for manufacturing standards.
Technologies we use for manufacturing
What we have built

How to hire manufacturing developers
Factory Systems Assessment
We analyze your production environment — machine types, sensor requirements, existing ERP/MES systems, and production KPIs you need to track in real-time.
Industrial IoT Team Assembly
Matched developers with IoT protocol, sensor integration, and time-series database experience. Your team includes embedded systems, backend, and dashboard specialists.
Paid Trial Week
Your team works on your actual manufacturing project. Verify their industrial protocol knowledge, sensor data handling skills, and dashboard development quality.
Build & Scale
Month-to-month engagement. Add data engineers, DevOps, or mobile developers as your smart factory platform expands to more production lines and facilities.
IoT Production Monitoring — 500+ Sensors
Built an IoT-based production monitoring platform connecting 500+ sensors across a manufacturing facility. The system tracks OEE in real-time, predicts maintenance needs, and reduced unplanned downtime by 35%.
500+ sensors connectedGeminate Solutions builds custom manufacturing software for factories, production facilities, and industrial-tech companies globally. Our Industry 4.0 development covers IoT sensor integration, production monitoring, quality management systems, and predictive maintenance platforms. With 500+ sensors connected in production deployments and expertise in MQTT, OPC-UA, and InfluxDB, we bring proven industrial IoT experience. Dedicated teams from $3,000/month.
Common questions about manufacturing development
Can you connect factory machines to software?
Yes. We integrate with industrial IoT protocols including MQTT, OPC-UA, and Modbus. We handle data collection from PLCs, sensors, and legacy machines using edge computing gateways.
Do you build custom ERP modules?
Yes. We build custom ERP modules for production planning, inventory management, quality control, and shop floor management — either standalone or integrated with existing ERP systems.
Can you modernize our legacy manufacturing systems?
Yes. We specialize in gradual modernization — wrapping legacy systems with modern APIs, building new interfaces, and migrating data without disrupting active production operations.
How much does manufacturing software development cost?
Basic production monitoring costs $30,000-$65,000 and takes 10-14 weeks. Mid-complexity MES platforms with sensor integration run $65,000-$160,000. Enterprise manufacturing systems with predictive maintenance range $160,000-$350,000.
Do you have ISO 9001 and FDA compliance experience?
Yes. We build manufacturing software with ISO 9001 quality documentation, FDA 21 CFR Part 11 electronic signatures, and ISO 13485 compliance for medical device manufacturing. Every system includes digital audit trails.
Can I hire manufacturing-experienced developers per month?
Yes. Dedicated industrial IoT developers start at $3,500/month. Our engineers have built sensor integration platforms, production dashboards, and quality management systems. Start with a paid trial week.
How long does it take to build a production monitoring system?
Basic sensor monitoring with dashboards takes 10-14 weeks. Adding predictive maintenance, quality tracking, and ERP integration extends to 14-24 weeks. We ship live sensor data visualization within the first 5 weeks.
What tech stack do you use for manufacturing projects?
We use React for operator dashboards, Node.js and Python for backend processing, MQTT for sensor data ingestion, InfluxDB for time-series data, PostgreSQL for production records, Grafana for analytics, and AWS IoT for device management at scale.
