Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems are often discussed separately, but their combined power is transforming smart manufacturing. While MES focuses on managing the shop floor operations, from
Smarter Automation represents a significant leap forward in Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) technology. It’s not just about faster processing speeds or increased memory; it’s about integrating advanced technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and
The term “smart factory” conjures images of futuristic robots autonomously assembling products, and while that’s part of the picture, it’s a much broader concept. A smart factory leverages interconnected systems, data analytics, and automation to
