Why Should We Consider Manufacturing Analytics/IIoT
Help machine shops understand IIoT / Manufacturing Analytics and the potential solutions enough to make a determination of whether they should seriously consider IIoT or not. Manufacturing is moving towards needing to be more data driven to compete. However, companies struggle to understand if IIoT solutions make sense for them, can be successful, are affordable, and want to look for alternatives if available. They have also already been bombarded by IoT marketing fluff and a lot of stories of failed IoT projects. Our approach is to be transparent about the solutions, their value, and the options. We don’t get into the big, high‐minded ideas of Industry 4.0/Smart Manufacturing or the IoT hype. That’s been overdone already. Let’s get real.
