Advanced analytics and artificial intelligence

Embedding intelligent technologies in control systems can provide a new paradigm for machine operation.
Advanced analytics applications can reveal hidden patterns and correlations in past data and project these onto future events. This makes business planning much easier and faster. However, the technology also has its limits: Its potential can only be exploited if certain conditions are met.
Digitalization influences the success of companies. It is linked to disruptive concepts such as IoT, deep learning/machine learning, data analysis, big data, cloud and edge computing and thus to the all-encompassing artificial intelligence (AI).
Wear on the spindle in ball screws can be continuously monitored and evaluated using an intelligent system from the KIT.

Energy chain sensors from Igus monitor the movement of Güdel's linear robots and measure wear, making it possible to plan maintenance by recording and evaluating the data.

Artificial intelligence. Hans-Jürgen Heitzer is Head of Division for Kardex Mlog in the Kardex Group and is therefore familiar with the future opportunities that Industry 4.0 and artificial intelligence bring for intralogistics.
Basics - Artificial intelligence

What is artificial intelligence? This basic article explains the origins, explains subcategories such as machine learning, deep learning and reinforcement learning and provides an overview of current applications of the technologies.

Avoiding machine failures through condition monitoring is one of the biggest challenges for plant operators. Industrial plants are defined here as all the machines in a factory that can be monitored and are connected to each other via the control system.

Which technologies should companies rely on in 2020 to future-proof themselves? Automation expert Omron has compiled a list of robotics and AI trends.

Aries Embedded presents its new C-Vision kit. The kit is a design platform for industrial applications with embedded vision and artificial intelligence. It enables the processing and evaluation of image data.
