Impact of IOT in Manufacturing
The Internet of Things (IoT) is more than the latest buzzword in technology. It’s a real game-changer that can create business value from previously hidden data, especially for manufacturers.
#FocusOnImprovingOperations
Lowering the costs of production and operations, creating new revenue streams, and increasing customer satisfaction and loyalty are all paths to greater success and profit. Each one requires in-depth knowledge of the business and the customers, and then using that unique information to make business decisions that move the needle on revenue and create competitive differentiation. It ensures an organization to achieve more success by using hidden data to improve operations, efficiency, and decision-making.
All your things are connected through the internet, so that the business systems can receive and analyze that data. Then it can act on the data, by discrete decisions or in an automated way that’s triggered by a specific set of conditions. The real magic happens when we get the chance to look at that data – really analyze it – for insights about the business, the customers, and the processes. An equipment can tell a lot that we won’t find out any other way. And it can turn those insights into a real competitive advantage. we can even apply artificial intelligence and machine learning to the data and discover insights we might never detect on our own.
Every manufacturing business is different, but many manufacturing processes are similar on a basic level. Raw materials or parts at the beginning, a series of tooling or assembly steps in the middle and Finished product at the end. Every step in that chain has associated data about speed, efficiency, breakdowns, temperature, fluid levels, shift changes and human interventions.
With embedded devices and sensors, we can learn from our own systems and glean insights about how best to manage the process, including:
While reducing operational costs is a major focus of IoT solutions, that same cost-reduction solution may also be able to generate increased revenue. As data is collected and analyzed, new trends may reveal new revenue opportunities. Organizations with more sophisticated data and analytics capabilities are able to harness that data to deliver more value to the business, including stronger customer engagement, better business optimization and improved product design processes.
These organizations are:
Many organizations, especially small and medium-sized ones, see technology costs and complexity as overwhelming. As we continue to fine-tune the solution, we can evaluate adding new scenarios to extend the benefits of IoT across your business. The best part will be the benefits that was expected – the insight about data revealed that couldn’t have predicted. The one that puts us a step ahead of competitors and saved or made money in a way we hadn’t thought about. After all, that’s what digital transformation is all about.

As the world changes, so does the future of our students. We cannot sit back and let them enter a drastically shifting employment market without transforming the pedagogy, culture and approach to technology that is a legacy of the previous century.
The Industrial Internet of Things, or IIoT as it is more commonly referred to, is the industrial framework that allows the efficient use of IoT devices in various manufacturing and industrial processes.
