Discover Your Smart Factory IQ

whitePaper | March 29, 2023

Smart factories have various areas of strengths and weaknesses, just as people do. Strengths bring the opportunity for positive differentiation, whilst weaknesses offer challenges to address in order to deliver consistently on expectation. Many people like to measure their IQ to see how they compare in terms of being “Smart”— so why should we not do the same for the data-driven Smart assembly factory? This helps reveal both strengths and weaknesses, builds the roadmap for improvement and development, increases visibility of unique values, and eliminates risk derived from bottlenecks and inefficiencies. It is time to put our Smart, data-driven manufacturing operation to the test, ensuring preparedness as the industry transforms toward the elusive Industry 4.0.

DIGITAL TWINS What they are, their value, how they can reduce costs and increase returns in automation

whitePaper | November 5, 2022

Many credit the birth of the digital twin to Dr. Michael Grieves, who applied the idea to the manufacturing sector in 2002; however, the argument is often made that its origins can be traced back even further. For example, during the Space Race (1955-1975), NASA would create a replica of each spacecraft they would send into orbit. These replicas were studied and used for simulation to gain insight into their performance and improve their space exploration initiatives.
