A practical guide for transforming manufacturers’ digital infrastructure

whitePaper | August 17, 2022

The need for true customer-centricity is impossible to ignore in the manufacturing world. Disruptive technology, instant availability of information, the expectation of to-the-second service in an on-demand consumer economy have given rise to a new power balance, in which the demands of the customer call the shots – rather than the way manufacturing businesses determine they should operate. In this redrawn landscape, intelligent automation (IA) can be the difference between success and failure. But what does it take to integrate IA into a manufacturing operation – and where are its benefits felt most prominently?

These are unprecedented complexities in the manufacturing sector that will require companies to evaluate how operation layouts need to be modified to assure safety and operational efficiencies. These design decisions have a material impact on the productivity and efficiency of the production line and, hence, your business. How can manufacturers begin to effectively model and make these trade-offs? If necessary, how can these changes to the production line be persistently maintained and efficiently updated in the future? What is the “next normal” for these companies?

The latest generation of scanCONTROL 30xx laser scanners is extremely powerful, precise and individually adaptable. The scanners are used for high-precision 2D / 3D profile and gap measurements in automation, production monitoring and quality control. For demanding surfaces such as red-hot objects or transparent objects, the patented blue laser scanners are ideally suited. This White Paper shows various applications examples and explains more about the benefits of high performance scanners.

Until 2020, progress towards digital transformation for most manufacturers was slow. But the urgency for manufacturers to make successful digital transformations escalated during the first 8-12 months of the global pandemic. As COVID-19 reshaped consumer buying behaviors, the pace jumped from a crawl to a sprint: According to one study, 85% of organizations accelerated their digital transformation initiatives in 2020.[1] Some industry observers believe we witnessed 6.5 years of digital progress in the last eight months of 2020 alone.

Imagine the power of a process model that defines the pace of your production. Imagine process mining insights, which allow you to feel the pulse of actual process performance. Imagine a digital twin as a virtual representation of your manufacturing processes. Imagine a single software which - at the same time - enables a more collaborative approach, with all members of the workforce working towards performance improvement, reducing waste & defects. Now stop imagining... that reality is here.
