AUTOMATION 2023: IIoT & Industry 4.0 (May)

This May edition of AUTOMATION 2023 unfolds with a look at how modern, smart factories are built with unknowable future technologies in mind. A truly sustainable environment starts with early planning that allows for flexibility far down the road. With that in mind, we’ve brought you pieces from industry experts who share what they know about readers’ very specific challenges: corralling all types of data and making it useful (and accurate) with a data mesh; HMIs continuing to provide operators with data and insights, even with the unrivaled connectivity we’re seeing today; and much more. You’ll also hear from the decision-makers who allow all these implementations to become a reality—it’s not all about the technology. With this issue of AUTOMATION, we invite you to celebrate your wins along the way to Industry 4.0 and beyond as the innovation and integration of IIoT evolves.

If you have a moment, let us know what you think of this issue. We are always striving to bring our readers more of what they want and need to see in upcoming AUTOMATION ebooks.
