Real-time sensor data is enabling smart factories to better understand their own processes, allowing more efficient operations. One of the most diverse and widely deployed type of sensor in the industrial internet of things (IIoT) is the pressure sensor. Here, Richard Mount, Director of Sales at ASIC design and supply company Swindon Silicon Systems, explores how integrating ASIC technology with a MEMS pressure sensor keeps smart factories operating safely and efficiently.
Smart factories use connected devices, machinery and production systems to continuously collect and share data. This data is used to inform decisions, improve processes and address any issues that arise — ultimately improving manufacturing efficiency. According to the 2021 State of Manufacturing Report from Fictiv, 95% of manufacturers agree that digital transformation is essential to…
