Industry 4.0 technology enables the capture and processing of data in real time, both where its generated and where it is needed, to implement effective improvements to manufacturing processes. Capturing data, though, is not enough. Sensors must be placed in the locations where they will be most effective, and data itself must be interpreted by knowledgeable professionals who understand what the numbers indicate. The advantage Watlow® brings to an Industry 4.0 project is in its thermal experts, who understand both the important role thermal systems play in key application and industry 4.0 implementations.
