Detailed IIoT Data for JIT Sheet Metal Production Scheduling
In the rapidly evolving landscape of manufacturing, the integration of IIoT data has unlocked unparalleled opportunities for optimizing production processes and fostering dynamic responses to operational challenges. By merging IIoT data with ERP/MES systems, manufacturers gain real-time insights into work requirements and schedules, while direct connections to machinery CAM systems enable instant adjustments to accommodate schedule changes and other unforeseen disruptions. This synergy allows for continuous tracking of raw materials and finished goods, thereby enhancing inventory management, reducing waste, and ensuring more efficient resource utilization. Additionally, the capability for dynamic scheduling means that production timelines can be adjusted to address unexpected events, such as equipment availability or urgent orders. These advancements empower manufacturers to streamline operations, minimize disruptions, and maintain a seamless and responsive production environment. The transformative power of IIoT is poised to revolutionize modern manufacturing capabilities, paving the way to a more adaptive, resilient, and profitable industry.

Leveraging Data as an Asset
As metal fabricators face new challenges for labor and external economic and social pressures, it becomes more and more important to have timely insights in your value stream. In this session, we will illustrate how manufacturers are leveraging data analytics technology to eliminate data silos, decrease manual reporting efforts and increase the speed at which they can make decisions across the business. By the end of the session, attendees will be presented with the tools needed to get stated on their data transformation journey.
