Manufacturing has made great progress in the last few years: through the development of robotics, automation, and advanced manufacturing, processes are becoming digital and automated. On the other hand, there are several challenges that manufacturers are still striving to overcome, for example, IT/OT convergence. In this whitepaper, you will learn how manufacturers can connect their machines and use collected data to drive operational efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and avoid unexpected downtime.
Business Insider estimates that global manufacturers will invest $70 billion on IoT solutions in 2020. That’s up from $29 billion in 2015.
In this whitepaper, you will learn about:
- The role of IoT in the future of manufacturing
- How IT and OT convergence play a vital role in digitizing manufacturing processes
- The evolution of smart factory and its needs
- Softweb Smart Factory and how to deploy it
