The Evolution of Traceability
The Evolution of Traceability
Building a fundamental strategy for success in next generation manufacturing
Join us as we focus on the internal justification for traceability and the benefits of implementation, as well as relevant externally imposed regulatory requirements. This session will also explore the evolution of traceability and explain why the latest generation of traceability implementations, which we at OMRON refer to as “Traceability 4.0,” is not just about tracking products and components. It is also about optimizing productivity and quality by tying process, equipment, material and even operator data to the tracked product ID.
During this session we will take a high-level view of track-and-trace and address some key discussion points:
- WHY is traceability important?
- WHAT value does traceability offer to my organization?
- HOW can I implement a complete traceability solution and make it an integral part of my digital transformation strategy?
Building a Robust Data Acquisition System
Building a Robust Data Acquisition System
A cost competitive solution for improved data collection
Data acquisition systems are imperative for industries looking to increase productivity and achieve operational resilience. Ensuring visibility into critical asset performance is key to enabling real-time decision making, helping to drive the highest level of operational efficiency. However, not all data acquisition systems are created equally. Systems have grown in sophistication over the years, placing an onerous burden on information technology professionals and operational technology engineers alike. During this presentation we will explore various solutions as it relates to cost, compatibility and functionality. We will introduce the SQL kit. A simple, secure solution that eliminates the need for PC based systems or middleware.
Planning for Tomorrow, Today
Planning for Tomorrow, Today
Advice to future-proof your architecture
Technology is evolving ever faster, making it harder for manufacturers to decide when and how to implement automation. The challenge for the plant floor is implementing automation that makes the best use of current technology, while still being flexible enough to plan for future developments. We will discuss how automation trends are influencing automation decisions, and we will discuss how to make automation architecture decisions today with an eye towards flexibility for tomorrow.
