At an IIoT World Manufacturing Day panel on data sovereignty and industrial AI, Peter Sorowka of Cybus and leaders from MaibornWolff, SCHUNK, and Schwarz Digits outlined how competitive advantage in manufacturing is forming well before AI reaches full deployment. Many manufacturers are waiting for clearer AI winners, the right platform, the right models, the right […]

Anthony Vigliotti, Chief Product Officer at Adlib, identifies a foundational distinction in enterprise AI that most industrial organizations have not yet fully reckoned with. In brownfield manufacturing and regulated industrial operations, the cost of that gap is becoming harder to ignore.The distinction is this: a document can be treated as a data source, or it […]

Data breaches in the manufacturing industry rose 89% year over year, reaching 1,607 confirmed cases in 2025 compared to 849 in 2024, according to Verizon’s DBIR Report. The driver is the increasing connection between IT and OT systems. Files that once stayed within isolated networks, such as CAD designs, predictive maintenance logs, and supplier updates, […]

The energy sector has made real progress in deploying AI closer to operations. Battery storage operators are running predictive models at the site level. Renewable fleet managers are using AI to accelerate troubleshooting and optimize asset performance. Grid-connected systems are beginning to rely on edge-based inference to make decisions that must occur in under a […]

Every machine vibrates differently, and sensor placement on a machine can make or break the data quality. This IIoT World article is based on a video interview recorded at Hannover Messe 2026 with Julien Romala (Application Engineer, Tronics Microsystems, a TDK Group company). Where a vibration sensor sits, how quickly it learns what normal looks […]
