Do you remember life before GPS? Many of us can, but only faintly — folding maps in the car, printing directions, or stopping at gas stations for help. It wasn’t long ago, yet it already feels like another era. GPS quietly changed more than navigation; it made working, transacting, and moving through the world effortless […]

Walk into any plant, and within minutes, you can tell if reliability runs deep or if it’s just a slogan on the wall. You don’t need a report to see it—you can feel it.As Amit Khanna, VP of Business Excellence at Tata Steel Thailand, puts it, “Housekeeping is the first thing.” A clean, organized plant signals that […]

Factories today don’t struggle to collect data — they struggle to make sense of it. Machines measure everything from pressure to vibration, but most of it lacks meaning. Without context, even the most advanced dashboards can’t explain what’s happening on the floor.That’s starting to change.A new generation of AI agents at the edge is learning to understand […]

Talk to any plant manager and you’ll hear the same frustration: too many proofs of concept, not enough results. The real opportunity isn’t running another pilot—it’s building scalable systems that deliver measurable value every day. That’s where Industrial IoT (IIoT), machine learning (ML), and now generative AI (GenAI) are starting to prove their worth, not in isolated demos but across […]

Every factory depends on expertise — the intuition of a technician who can hear when a nozzle is misaligned, or the experience of an engineer who can trace yield loss back to a single feeder. But that expertise is disappearing fast, even as machines generate more diagnostic data than ever before.This new white paper, GenAI, Operational […]

Most predictive maintenance sensors work well—until they don’t. When your pump is in an acid-laden environment, your mill bearings hit 120-150°C, or your crane gearbox runs at 4 RPM for half the shift, the majority of “AI-enabled” standard sensors become expensive paperweights. That’s where COOs leading high-reliability plants are quietly shifting from standard predictive AI […]

In many industrial organizations, operations and maintenance teams still walk into work with more uncertainty than confidence. There are checklists to follow, logs to review, and a familiar set of problems that always seem one step ahead. Something breaks, someone reacts, and the system limps forward. That rhythm is common across transport, utilities, manufacturing, and […]

AI is moving faster than most industries can digest. According to data cited during a recent IIoT World session, AI capability is now doubling every 3.5 months—a 100x improvement in a single year. That’s not evolution; that’s exponential transformation. For industries like manufacturing and energy, the real question isn’t whether AI will shape the future, but […]

The manufacturing industry is in the middle of a labor crunch. As experienced workers retire and skilled talent becomes harder to find, many factories are struggling to maintain consistency, efficiency, and quality. Generative AI is emerging as a powerful tool—not to replace human workers, but to support them, capture institutional knowledge, and make shop floor […]

You can tell something’s shifting in manufacturing—not by the headlines, but by the way small teams are solving problems that used to be ignored. At IIoT World’s Manufacturing Day in May 2025, a group of founders and CEOs joined a refreshingly candid discussion about what it really takes to move the needle in industrial innovation. […]

As industrial organizations accelerate their digital transformation journeys, one persistent challenge continues to block progress: the gap between Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) teams. While “IT/OT convergence” has become a buzzword in Industry 4.0 circles, most professionals on the ground still struggle with what that actually means in practice and how to achieve […]
