Industry Industry Building Materials & Glass

Changing the recipe for a building material or glass product can have drastic impacts on machine health, cost, waste, and quality. But given the production time and complexity of these products, how is it possible to determine the necessary recipe changes?

The right tools and technologies can help teams understand the most impactful production variables. This enables them to make recipe or process changes and advance continuous improvement efforts. Complex data analysis tools empower building materials and glass manufacturers to minimize waste, improve sustainability, and build a collaborative, data-driven culture.

Six ways to improve glass production with IIoT and Digital Twins

Glass manufacturers today are up against complicated problems on both ends of the production cycle: from raw materials to output. Here are six ways that an Industrial IoT Platform can help glass producers overcome today’s difficulties and lessen the impact of future challenges.
