1. What is the Industrial Internet of Things?
It is a concept that connects the integration of industrial machinery and equipment with advanced sensors, software, and networking technologies. In this way, you can create and connect an automated ecosystem. Such a digitisation enables smart factories that have improved efficiency staff safety, and sustainability.
The application of IIoT in manufacturing and the use of industrial IoT solutions speed up the manufacturing process and reduce waste. As a result, the productivity increases while keeping the planet safe. Obviously, it also reduces downtime and lowers maintenance costs as it provides real-time data that introduces predictive maintenance.
2. How IIoT solutions will drive industry 4.0?
Industry 4.0 refers to a new phase in the industrial revolution that focuses heavily on interconnectivity, automation, machine learning and real-time data. Industry 4.0, also referred to as IIoT technology or smart manufacturing, combines physical production and operations with smart digital technology, machine learning, and big data. All of this creates a more holistic and better-connected ecosystem for companies that focus on manufacturing and supply chain management.
Industrial IoT solutions can be applied to solve difficult logistic, manufacturing, and supply chain issues that benefit both the manufacturer and the consumer. Leveraging IIoT in an existing enterprise is a mutually beneficial aspect of IIoT implementation and can reduce operational costs while ensuring the highest quality possible in a wide variety of an industry's processes.
3. What are the benefits of using our industrial IoT solutions?Our industrial IoT solutions are well-suited multi-tasking services for a variety of industries. Sectors such as process automation, machinery, food and beverage, water and wastewater, energies and chemicals, cement, metal, and mining use these solutions to improve safety in working environments, increase efficiency, and reduce carbon footprint.
Obviously, using industrial IoT solutions helps the entire ecosystem and introduces a lot of innovative changes that can be of utmost importance for sectors where very high uptime and predictive maintenance are top priorities.
