Mitigating Project Risks through Front-End Loading for Control System Migrations
FEL is all about minimizing the risk: The cost risk, the schedule risk, and the scope risk for any capital undertaking. Early in a project, the cost impact of changes is low, but it increases, often drastically, in later stages.
Tips From an Expert: Creating a Positive Workplace Culture in Manufacturing
60% of business leaders who prioritise performance management say they outperform their competitors. Despite this, 49% of employees say they don't have regular performance conversations with their managers.
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
The Benefits of Predictive Maintenance Capabilities in Energy Management Systems for Industrial Facilities
Future trends in predictive maintenance focus on leveraging AI and machine learning to improve system accuracy and efficiency, and integrating IIoT for enhanced connectivity and data exchange in smart factories.

Featured Product
PickerPal Products provides full case pick module protection to protect employees from falls.
PickerPal has two independent, spring-loaded arms that are self closing, which is preferred by OSHA. 3 arms are used when a kick plate is required. OSHA states that when an employee is within 4' of the edge, the area changes from a pallet position to a, "walking/working surface," which requires a kick plate or a third arm. The spring-loaded arms open on contact with the loaded skid and close on their own as products are off-loaded. This design provides multiple benefits: • Top arms close as product is removed, creating a safety gate, and the third arm closes when the empty pallet is removed. • Empty pallet positions are no longer a safety hazard. • Each are is easily replaced without removing the entire assembly.
