1. INCREASED AUTOMATION IS LEADING TO A PUSH FOR DIGITALIZATION.
As manufacturers continue to focus on automation, the growing quantity of automated components in production means more motors, PLCs, power distribution components, and connections between machines and systems. Thanks to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), these components and their related production processes – from conceptual design to operation and maintenance – generate data. Today’s automation architects know that storing, interpreting, and taking action on that data is the next frontier. For data to be made useful, it requires digitalization: a transformation of the ways in which we work and collaborate to leverage the data at our disposal.
