Enhancing Hydraulic System Performance: From Real-Time Monitoring to Predictive Maintenance
The hydraulic industry is undergoing significant transformation, propelled by advances in technology and a rising demand for efficient, sustainable, and reliable solutions. Industrial hydraulic equipment, which powers machinery across diverse sectors, includes essential components such as pumps, motors, cylinders, valves, and hoses that work together to transfer energy via pressurized fluid. From manufacturing and construction […]
Optimizing Manufacturing Performance: Leveraging OEE and the Six Major Losses for Plant and Multi-Site Efficiency with Cloud Integration
We have seen a significant rise in mid-market manufacturers adopting Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) solutions in the past year. OEE is a key performance indicator (KPI) that measures how effective manufacturing operations are utilized compared to their full potential and provides a clear productive manufacturing time percentage. Given the recent years of constant disruptions—COVID-19, supply […]
Haunting Manufacturing Trends Spooking Your Halloween
As the winds of autumn stir and shadows lengthen, eerie trends are creeping into the manufacturing world that could haunt operations long after Halloween has passed. These haunting realities reveal how technology, sustainability, and the workforce are transforming the industry in ways that can be both exciting and, at times, unnerving. Here’s a look at some […]
Maximizing Efficiency: How HMI/SCADA Software Transforms Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) Fleet Management
Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) have become a staple in modern warehouses and clean rooms. These robots leverage advanced technologies to navigate and execute tasks without direct human control. Unlike traditional automated systems that are confined to fixed paths or preprogrammed routes, AMRs are equipped with sensors, cameras, artificial intelligence (AI), and real-time data processing capabilities. […]
The Critical Role of HMI and Remote Management in Powering IIoT
Key Technologies Driving IIoT Adoption The global Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) market is expected to reach USD 194.4 billion in 2024, with growth projections to USD 286.3 billion by 2029. This reflects a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%, according to MarketsandMarkets analysts. IIoT is a critical driver of digital transformation across all […]
Edge Analytics for Industrial Automation: Harnessing Real-Time Insights with HMI/SCADA and Intelligent Rule-Based Systems
Decision-makers are increasingly adopting edge analytics to optimize processes and boost operational efficiency in today’s fast-paced industrial landscape. Manufacturers can process real-time data directly at the source—whether on the factory floor or in the field—by integrating HMI/SCADA systems with advanced analytics. According to ARC’s Industrial Edge Computing Market report, the industrial edge computing market is […]
Ensuring Compliance: How Six Data Quality Dimensions Drive FDA 21 CFR Part 11 Success
After exploring various articles on the six data quality dimensions and data governance, I realized these principles are fundamental to driving success in regulated industries, especially in the context of FDA 21 CFR Part 11. At the heart of these concepts is data—ensuring it remains accurate, trustworthy, and secure. High-quality data is the foundation for […]
Harnessing the Sun: Optimizing Solar Energy with ADISRA SmartView HMI/SCADA
A close friend recently installed a small-scale solar photovoltaic system to power her entire home, and soon after, my neighbor followed suit. Around the same time, an ADISRA partner developed a solar application using ADISRA SmartView, which I will discuss later in this blog. These events sparked my curiosity about solar energy’s growing role in […]
Low-Code HMI/SCADA Template: The Key to Smarter Data Center Monitoring and Automation
Despite a recent dip in its share price, Nvidia’s data center business saw an impressive 409% year-over-year growth in the last quarter, with CEO Jensen Huang forecasting an additional $1 trillion in data center investments over the next four years. Rapidly becoming Nvidia’s most prominent business unit, this growth is fueled by the rise of […]
Harnessing Predictive Power: Integrating Rule-Based Expert Systems
I recently spoke with a customer who, despite being retired, continues to consult for his former company because he is the only one who knows how to fix many of the machines on the plant floor. As the industrial automation workforce ages, it is becoming increasingly clear that an HMI/SCADA system with a rule-based expert system would be […]
