As the foundation of the digital economy, data center infrastructure (DCI) requires constant infrastructural expansions and upgrades to increase efficiency and reduce costs.

While we come to accept the reality that time may not heal all economic wounds onset by the pandemic, we can focus on ways to turn these challenges into opportunities.

When the expected volume and product life cycle make automated transfer attractive–or even necessary–for an assembly operation, the work of choosing the right conveyor system begins.

Smart manufacturing promises improved performance through the digital transformation of manual and mechanical systems, and the further integration of automated systems with business systems and advanced technologies. This feature originally appeared in InTech magazine's August issue, a special edition from ISA's Smart Manufacturing and IIoT Division.

Jesse Ku, an industrial control system cybersecurity expert at Moxa who is also IEC 62443 certified, has proposed a five point "S.M.A.R.T.” cybersecurity strategy.

As business operations become more digitized, cybersecurity can no longer be an afterthought because the implications of failing to stay abreast of the latest protection solutions and best practices pose much more than just financial risk.

Bill Lydon talks with Ryan Smeltzer, OPA program manager for ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company, about the company’s commitment to open automation.

Through IIoT technologies, power grids are being transformed from experience-based management to data-driven management.

The industrial robot market has, as a result of COVID, done something highly unusual–it has moved from a mature and conservative phase into an exciting, fast-growth, almost start-up-like phase.

IIoT systems add value within a plant, but they are also a natural fit for data gathering in the field.

Claudia Jarrett, US country manager at industrial parts supplier EU Automation, explains why plant managers should consider the alternatives to lean manufacturing.

Claudia Jarrett, US country manager at industrial automation supplier EU Automation, discusses how obsolescence management can avoid plant damage and worker injuries while maintaining optimum production levels.

These fundamental steps help extract data and additional value from pressure and temperature instrumentation. This feature originally appeared in the May 2022 issue of InTech Focus Temperature & Pressure.

Whether measuring or controlling temperature, it begins with the sensor. Better sensors make better process measurements. This feature originally appeared in the May 2022 issue of InTech Focus Temperature & Pressure.

Staying ahead of threats to Industrial Control Systems (ICS) Cybersecurity.

Industrial network security is not a luxury option anymore—it is a necessity. A spate of high-profile cyberattacks targeting critical infrastructure has underlined the need for industrial organizations to prioritize cybersecurity.

The success of additive manufacturing technology is often measured by the efficiency and reliability of the controls.

Cobots are becoming a mainstream technology. As they do, new varieties of cobot are being released, and new industries are being targeted. In this insight, we take a look at a few growing cobot trends.

Modern temperature instrumentation simplifies technician access, calibration and SIL procedures. This feature originally appeared in the May 2022 issue of InTech Focus Temperature & Pressure.

Rather than simply defining a minimalist access policy, security posture and context can play a role in improving Zero Trust security. This helps significantly reduce risk by making more informed decisions about connectivity.
