IoT and energy saving

Out of many approaches to IoT, energy saving is one topic where you get quick results in a short time period. If the amount of electricity goes down, your costs go down! Mitsubishi's Electric Industrial IoT Evangelist, Hajime Sugiyama, will talk about the approach and methods to install IoT for energy saving. (Video courtesy of Mitsubishi Electric, Japan)

It is rocket science: ABB robot helps test extreme high-temperature systems

A testing system designed to help with the development of components for jet engines and other high-temperature systems is 30% faster, thanks to a nimble ABB IRB 1200 robot. The developers predict that the new system could reduce the testing and development cycle from weeks to days.

omlox: The locating standard of the future

The promises of Industry 4.0 are huge, but any proprietary solution for just one plant will fail due to extremely high costs. An economical solution for Industry 4.0 needs standards in order to enable the reuse of elements for suppliers and the lock-in free maintenance and low-entry costs for users.

Feeding the digital brain

Upgrading to digital measurement tools can be the first step on the road to factory management systems capable of learning and making suggestions for improvements. Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are forming the ‘digital brain’ that has the capability to revolutionise the efficiency of today’s industrial plants.
