Why aren’t factories as smart as they could be? How edge computing accelerates the journey to a remarkable factory
The benefits of smart manufacturing come not from making individual machines smarter, but from gaining continuous insights into, and control over every process, from the start of the supply chain to the end customer.
A first step that enterprises take toward digital transformation is often proof-of-concept initiatives focused on just one or two use cases. Unfortunately, these applications may be built on “accidental architectures” that have evolved over the years on the factory floor. These architectures are not engineered for efficiency, manageability and scalability, so they prevent enterprises from driving innovation forward. As a result, their factories are not as smart as they could be.
What is left on the factory floor is an unfulfilled opportunity to increase safety and profitability.
