FREMONT, CA: The biggest concern hindering the increased efficiency in manufacturing is the application of outdated technology. Machines are fixed on the floor and are allowed to run, manufacturing parts at a rate nobody knows, other than the operators. Operators have maximum control over the rate of manufacturing, derived obviously from their prolonged experience. The same process is being followed since the dawn of industrialization, almost a hundred years ago.

The implementation of IIoT facilitates monitoring, augments efficiency, and improves equipment life expectancy.

By connecting the machines to the network, basic dashboards for enhanced display, and the descriptive analytics components can be achieved. The reduced hardware expenses have made things even more easier for the manufacturers.
The edge device, which used to cost more than thousands of dollars previously is now available below $500. These machines are utilized as a gateway for recording information off machines, enacting the role of a miniature computer that can be linked to Wi-Fi or cellular internet.
On the flip side, the processing speed is in-expensive among software too. Especially when services like Amazon Web Services (AWS) can be leveraged to allow the companies to scale its software much quickly and efficiently.
The key aspect is the upgraded technology that enables the factories of the present to do more than what could be done at least ten years ago. Analytics allow the manufacturers to utilize the existing avenues for new customers too. It curbs the necessity to purchase newer physical devices even though more data than ever is being streamed at present. IIoT assists porting all data to cloud or AWS directly from the dashboards for maintaining infrastructure and technical implementation.
