Webinar: Learn How To Protect Your “Smart” Equipment

written by Lauri Moon | February 16, 2018

The growing need for connected, “smart” equipment can be a disruptive force for many manufacturers. Investments in smart equipment can supercharge your production. It is critical to your company’s long-term health to embrace these changes before your competition gets ahead of you and leaves you in their dust.

Plus, your new equipment allows Predictive Maintenance strategies that simultaneously reduce your maintenance costs and improve your asset performance. Tying your smart equipment together with the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) enables a shift from old product-based to new service-based offerings.

In this webinar, we will discuss how you can:

  • Improve efficiency and reduce maintenance costs through new predictive maintenance strategies and technologies.
  • Enable product-as-a-service approaches to help grow revenue.
  • Create new value-added services that grow customer loyalty without adding operational complexity.
  • Learn through real-life examples how greater connectivity can help industrial equipment manufacturers evolve and grow.

Webinar: Accelerate Manufacturing Performance with Industrie 4.0

written by Lauri Moon | February 16, 2018

Smart manufacturing technologies are evolving faster than ever – including innovation platforms, digital-twins, augmented reality, sensors, cloud-edge, big-data analytics, 3D printing, new robots, etc. Adoption of these essential Industrie 4.0 enablers is becoming more commonplace – and much more critical. Market leaders who ignore these new opportunities risk falling behind their more innovative and agile competitors.

Business leaders are focused on improved performance, not implementing new or better technology. This webinar provides details and methods on how to achieve rapid time-to-value with lower risk for interruptions, all while creating a foundation to outpace the competition with operational excellence and strategic differentiation.

Experts from Deloitte and PTC will discuss how to:

  • Identify the leading Industrie 4.0 value propositions applicable to your business
  • Build on what you have with wrap-and-extend capabilities
  • Mitigate the risks of a digital business transformation
  • Specify the right performance metrics to drive adoption and expansion

Register to attend on March 6, 2018 and learn how your organization can incorporate Industrie 4.0 capabilities into your business plans, and accelerate your digital transformation.
