Machines and software are everywhere. The next competitive edge no longer comes from owning more of them — it comes from connecting, learning, and evolving faster than the competition. For manufacturers, the challenge is no longer adopting technology but turning it into a measurable, repeatable advantage.From Efficiency to IntelligenceTechnology is rewriting the rules of manufacturing […]

Every machine in a factory is a storyteller. Motors hum, valves pulse, and robotic arms flex—each leaving a digital footprint in the form of vibration signatures, torque readings, and temperature curves. Production systems add more layers: batch IDs, recipe adjustments, and operator inputs. Together, this flood of time-series data could tell manufacturers not only what […]

In the age of digital transformation, data is more than a byproduct—it’s a powerful asset. But most manufacturers are sitting on untapped potential. This white paper from Critical Manufacturing explores how modern data platforms, combined with MES systems, are reshaping industrial operations—from the shop floor to executive decision-making.Readers will gain a clear understanding of how “dark data”—the 60–90% […]
