Why has CoolAutomation been working to "free air conditioning from machines"?

Through our experience working with HVAC systems in buildings and facilities worldwide, CoolAutomation has witnessed the reality that HVAC systems are fragmented by manufacturer and equipment, preventing the flexible control and data utilization that should be possible. Despite HVAC being one of the most important pieces of equipment in a building, control methods are often limited by differences in manufacturers and models, hindering operational improvements and energy savings.

CoolAutomation believes that rethinking air conditioning from a "device-centric" approach to one centered on "control and data" is essential for future building operations.

The answer: "CoolMaster," an integrated air conditioning system.

CoolAutomation has always believed that in order to truly utilize air conditioning, it is essential to be able to handle all air conditioning systems within a single control and operation framework, regardless of the manufacturer or equipment. To achieve this, we chose an approach of creating a control platform that acts as a "bridge," absorbing the fragmented communication and control of air conditioning systems from each manufacturer and connecting them with higher-level systems such as BMS, EMS, and the cloud.

CoolMaster is the embodiment of this concept, made usable in the field. By integrating air conditioning with CoolMaster, it becomes possible to comprehensively understand the operational status and energy usage of the entire building, leading to more efficient energy management starting with air conditioning.

CoolAutomation × Macnica makes it possible to achieve integrated and improved air conditioning systems.

1. Integrate air conditioning systems from various manufacturers at the "operational level," not just conceptually.
With CoolMaster at its core, integrated control can be achieved in conjunction with higher-level systems, even in air conditioning environments with a mix of different manufacturers and models.

2. Energy management can be advanced starting with air conditioning.
By gaining a comprehensive understanding of air conditioning operation, we can work towards visualizing and optimizing energy use.

3. Implement and deploy smoothly while utilizing existing equipment.
It does not require equipment upgrades and can accommodate phased implementation and future expansion.

4. A "usable integration" that considers everything from design and implementation to operation.
With Macnica 's involvement, given their understanding of Japan's equipment environment and operational realities, we can implement the integrated air conditioning system that our customers envision in a way that can be continuously used on-site.
