Data-Driven Manufacturing – Leveraging the Potential of Closed-Loop Systems
In the era of Manufacturing 4.0 and digital transformation, the manufacturing industry is undergoing a paradigm shift. One of the most promising advancements is closed-loop manufacturing, helped by the digital revolution that has paved the way for transformative advancements in the manufacturing industry.
From Simple Trend To a Must-Have Industrial Requirement
Closed-loop manufacturing stands out as a groundbreaking concept that maximizes productivity and quality by seamlessly integrating feedback metrology data by interconnecting engineering and manufacturing together. In this article Bertrand Gili, VP Strategy & Business Development at Sandvik Industrial Metrology Division explores the advantages of closed-loop manufacturing, highlighting Sandvik’s instrumental role in driving the industry forward with its expertise in tooling, digitalization, and cutting-edge solutions. No one else is better positioned than Sandvik’s new digital manufacturing approach to help companies in their digital transformation journey.
Closed-Loop Manufacturing: Revolutionizing Production Efficiency
Closed-loop manufacturing revolves around the continuous feedback loop between the manufacturing process and metrology data. By collecting and analyzing real-time data from various stages of production, you can gain invaluable insights that allow you to fine-tune your processes for optimal efficiency. This integration of feedback data empowers your team to identify and resolve issues immediately, resulting in enhanced productivity and reduced downtime. Your Industrial Metrology solutions, when well interconnected become the eyes and ears of what is happening on your production floor. Then, it becomes easy to define an automated process that can take real-time to improve your manufacturing throughput.
