At the heart of every manufacturing operation is the machine assets and the people that make the products. Machine assets in manufacturing plants produce thousands of data points every second and represent the preeminent component of the digital thread.

 

In this white paper, we explore unique manufacturing use cases and business opportunities derived from, and driven by, the digital thread and enabling technologies, with machine asset data as the cornerstone.

 

By stitching together critical product information with digital assets across the full product lifecycle, a digital thread empowers manufacturing companies to drive continuous improvement and innovative new business processes and models.
