IOT REFERS TO THE CONNECTIVITY OF JUST about everything! Be it your devices at home or even your vehicle, IoT is what connects them to the manufacturer as well as you. May sound mysterious, but it’s true.
The technology actually has its roots in a world that predates the rise of smart appliances: Industrial manufacturing. The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) “takes networked sensors and intelligent devices and puts those technologies to use directly on the manufacturing floor, collecting data to drive AI and predictive analytics.”
Deepak Pohekar, executive director of ZF Wind Power Coimbatore, says, “It is imperative to understand that digital transformation is reinventing companies and their factories. In manufacturing, it requires the seamless integration of both information and operations technology.”
According to Transcendent, the possibilities are almost endless when it comes to how IoT, AR, VR, and machine learning can help facilities with energy savings, labor savings, employee safety, and more. IIoT is changing the manufacturing industry. One of the many benefits of IIoT is how it can improve operating efficiencies. For example, if a machine goes down, connected sensors can determine where the issue is occurring and trigger a service request to an engineer. IIoT can also work together with an EAM CMMS where engineers can receive these generated requests on their mobile device and immediately go to the location to repair or assign it to another engineer near the asset.
