Machine learning has emerged as not just a better way to operate the machines of today, but it acts as a guidepost to design the machines of tomorrow. As one author in this maxon-sponsored eBook notes, machine learning “transforms an industrial operation into a system of systems that can get products to market faster at a lower cost.”
Machine learning opens the door to better products manufactured more efficiently. It also uncaps the potential of the overall operation by developing its own efficient operational ecosystem.
These aren’t long-range dreams. OEMs can begin today delivering systems that anticipate the future while realizing all the potential in the present-day operation. By integrating robots and traditional machine systems, the OEM can create safe, reliable and integrated systems that allow their manufacturing partners the most efficient system, and the most effective use of their most valuable resource—their workers.
It takes planning and commitment, but the return on this investment in machine learning in general and the Industrial Internet of Things in particular will give manufacturers a flexible, dynamic and profitable tool—and a huge advantage on any competitor who doesn’t follow this path.
