The rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) is like the advent of the Internet all over again. From the perspective of new business models and process transformation, IoT applications are perhaps even greater than what the Information Superhighway brought us a few decades ago. The universal connectivity of devices and ongoing innovation borne from […]

Many IoT applications begin with a small number of connected devices and then grow over time to a substantial number of devices. Therefore, it is important for organizations to understand how their IoT infrastructure will scale to handle an increase in the number of connected devices and the corresponding message throughput. Failure to plan for […]

A large manufacturer produces hundreds of parts for an industrial distributor of multiple vehicle types. Challenges • Throughout the plant, automated robotic welding systems are utilized. The motor supplying wire feed to the welding gun often wears. • Irregular wire feeding causes the wire to buckle and jam. This means unplanned stoppages and downtime of […]
