The Overlooked Data Problem Slowing Down Manufacturing AI
While manufacturers invest in AI and digital twin programs, the Adlib ebook “AI-Powered PLM in Manufacturing” reveals that most of the data required for those initiatives is buried in documents that machines can’t read. Across the industry,…
AI May Be Ready for Manufacturing. But Is Manufacturing Ready for AI?
For the past few years, manufacturers have heard the same message on repeat: AI is ready for industry. But a quieter question is now being asked inside control rooms and boardrooms alike — is industry ready for AI?At…
Industrial AI’s Next Phase: Proof Before Scale
At Infinite Uptime’s CXO Circle in Bangkok, the discussion around industrial AI felt different. The room was filled with people who run plants. They weren’t asking whether AI belongs in manufacturing anymore. They were asking how…
How IIoT Is Bringing Data-Driven Quality to Industrial Fabrication
Industrial fabrication is transforming as manufacturers shift from manual inspection to intelligent, data-driven systems. Through the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), machines, sensors and analytics platforms communicate seamlessly to create a connected production ecosystem. This integration…
By 2028, Plants Won’t Just Run Themselves—They’ll Tell You Why
In a few short years, the most visible change inside industrial plants won’t be new machinery—it will be silence. No more scribbled shift logs, no frantic data reconciliation between operators, and no confusion over what happened…
The AI Scaling Problem Nobody’s Solving: Why 140 Applications Delivered Zero Scale
Jason Schern, Field CTO at Cognite, reveals the uncomfortable truth about industrial AI: companies are building solutions that can’t scale beyond a single site, and it’s killing their ROI.The 140-to-Zero ProblemDuring a recent audit, a large…
When Yield Becomes Sustainability — Redefining Efficiency in Semiconductor Manufacturing
Sustainability used to sit on the periphery of semiconductor manufacturing — an environmental checkbox managed by a separate team. That era is over. The next generation of fabs is proving that sustainability is not a corporate…
Standardize Before You Scale: A CFO/COO Playbook for Best-of-Breed Without the Bloat
Every plant in a multi-site network ends up with its own stack: different sensors, dashboards, line apps, and even naming conventions. When you start planning for agentic AI—software that can coordinate and recommend actions across operations—the…
The Next Manufacturing Advantage: From Products to Intelligent, Connected Services
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…
Beyond Dashboards: Manufacturers Want Predictive Data, Not Pretty Graphs
Walk into any modern factory and you’ll see walls of dashboards. Vibration graphs, torque curves, temperature plots, even “traffic-light” alarms glowing red or green. It looks sophisticated — until a critical press fails and the line…
