Beyond the Camera: Network Choices that Impact Machine Vision Systems
As automation accelerates, understanding the network that connects hardware with software will help ensure that machine vision systems operate at their full potential.
Prioritizing Network Investment in Manufacturing
Industry 4.0 is driving major gains in efficiency, automation, and innovation. But there's a flip side: That progress depends on fast, secure, always-on connectivity. Manufacturing, in particular, is an interesting case study.
BOOSTING OIL PAD OUTPUT WITH COMPREHENSIVE PIPE CORROSION MONITORING
Corrosion and erosion gradually reduce pipe wall thickness, increasing the risk of leaks or catastrophic failures-jeopardizing personnel safety, environmental protection, and asset integrity.
Benefits and Applications of IO-Link Wireless in the Food Industry
With IO-Link Wireless, food manufacturers and distributors can optimize their processes and stay ahead of the competition. The CoreTigo team provides a comprehensive look at how this works in a real factory setting.
Penn Waste Inc. Minimizes Machine Downtime and Improves Efficiency
Penn Waste realized that it needed an advanced wireless solution combined with smart sensors that would deliver accurate, reliable and continuous real-time data for predictive maintenance.
Shaping the Future-Proof Warehouse through Smart Connectivity
Future-proofing warehouse operations will require smart connectivity and specifically scalable, fluid network capacity and a new way of thinking about the invisible network that keeps the robots rolling in the warehouse of tomorrow.
Combining the Best of Both Worlds: Laying the Hybrid Network Foundation for a Smart Factory
Harnessing the full potential of these next-generation solutions demands a robust communication network capable of transporting vast amounts of data from the factory floor to the data center's IT infrastructure.
What is "Platform as a Service" and How Does it Improve Efficiencies in IIoT Ecosystems?
With each new IIoT device brought to market, manufacturers spent untold amounts of time and money making it live up to its potential. Time and again, they were building and rebuilding the same technology to enable data-based decision making, miles away from the device itself
Breaking down Walls to Build e-Factories
Thomas Burke, Global Strategic Advisor at CC-Link Partner Association (CLPA), looks at how industrial automation vendors, machine builders, and end users can futureproof robotic systems with value-adding network technologies.
Why smart interconnection is essential for building the factories of the future
Today, the super-high bandwidth and low latency of 5G have tremendous potential to transform all industries, especially manufacturing. They need intelligent networks to ensure manufacturers get the most from their 5G campuses.
Serving IoT Needs with Cassia Networks and Soracom
One factor that can complicate an IoT application is the crowding that may occur when many connected devices occupy the same area. To help corral all of these signals, many organizations opt to deploy Bluetooth gateways to help connect their IoT devices to the cloud.
Increasing Rural Broadband Can Help Rural Manufacturers Compete
Rural manufacturing's comparative decline is multifaceted, but the solution may not be. One of the most impactful distinctions between today's most and least competitive manufacturers is access to reliable, high-speed internet.
Interwire 2021 Trade Exposition - Industry 4.0 in Wire Manufacturing
Industry 4.0 is truly the future of manufacturing. Automation, robotics, machine learning, and data analytics are just a few examples of how the fourth industrial revolution affects the way wire and cable is made and how well companies compete on the world stage.
Benefits of VFD Cables Over THHN
Cables with the proper shielding, i.e. foil plus braided shield or semi-conductive fleece with foil and a braid shield, prevent the VFD system from radiating electrical noise that can interfere with the surrounding networking, wireless communication, and industrial devices.
Increase Security and Control Costs During Network Upgrades
While COVID-19 may have many legacies, one of them will definitely be an explosion in the amount of network capacity required. Most enterprises are experiencing the need for increased network capacity.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
