@vinco_automation: We are currently in the early stages of the 4th industrial revolution referred to as Industry 4.0. This is the phase of cyber-physical transformation of manufacturing. An exemplification of Industry 4.0 is smart manufacturing. Smart manufacturing illustrates the need for technology to mitigate risks, open up new opportunities, and remain competitive. A recent study shows that the top investment in smart manufacturing is process automation with a whopping 63% already invested. 33% of people who invested in technology this past year said process automation is delivering the highest return on investment, beating out Cloud/SaaS and Industrial Internet of Things, which came in second and third place. In order to properly use smart manufacturing within process automation we must integrate IT and OT. Vinco Automation is at the forefront of our current technological revolution. We are helping to bring IT and OT controls onto one device to help plant managers, building managers, and other OT professionals to now monitor and act on gathered data in real time to help build efficiencies and prevent downtime. If you are looking to get all of your devices, process controls, KPI, “digital twins” bringing “IT – Information Technologies” to a “OT – Operational Technologies” onto one platform give Vinco Automation a call.
