(Gerd Altmann\/Pixabay)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Because the maximization of OEE requires inputs from both hardware and software, or better equipment capacity and optimal algorithm stability, Kaji said PSSNA aims to intelligently integrate the physical and digital world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn order to refine the quality control, the changeover process and the supply chain management, my division makes not only hardware but also software,\u201d Kaji said. \u201cThis is the key to achieve a smarter OEE.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While PSSNA aims to boost OEE to maximize customers&#8217; productivity, Mitsubishi Electric Automation &#8211; a U.S. affiliate company of Mitsubishi Electric Corporation &#8211; employs edge computing to build connectivity and deliver the \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mitsubishielectric.com\/fa\/sols\/efactory\/index.html\">e\u2011F@ctory<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo support manufacturing, the e\u2011F@ctory concept is to connect device and equipment via IoT, while also utilizing data, AI and machine learning,\u201d said Toshio Kawai, chief executive officer of Mitsubishi Electric Automation.<\/p>\n<p>The creation of an \u201ce\u2011F@ctory\u201d demands real-time utilization of shop floor data and connectivity with the information technology system. Edge computing is an important architecture to bridge the two.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEssentially, edge computing allows the seamless coordination between factory automation and information technology systems in order to facilitate real-time data processing to improve manufacturing,\u201d Kawai said.<\/p>\n<p>Robert Miller, senior product marketing manager of Mitsubishi Electric Automation, said the company also taps into the time sensitive networking (TSN) technology, which allows manufacturers to \u201cput a timestamp on things and give higher priority to some packets versus other packets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo you can run multiple protocols over the internet but still maintain determinism,\u201d Miller said. \u201cWhen you hit the stop on a machine, you don&#8217;t have 30 seconds or a minute. It needs to stop right away. That&#8217;s why determinism is definitely required when it comes to manufacturing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Japan\u2019s incentive for boosting industrial automation results from\u00a0 the smart city concept, which celebrates the \u201cdiffusion of connectivity,\u201d said Fumio Oda, general manager of Macnica Americas, a subsidiary of Macnica Fuji Electronics Holdings that specializes in semiconductor, software and hardware design.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s say we talk about sensors in robots. Once you put in sensors to robots, the data information goes to the gateway, the processing system and the AI algorithm,\u201d Oda said. \u201cJapan is not looking at sensors or AI algorithm only. They are looking at the solution for everything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Oda said this concept of connectivity and synchronous communications within the entire manufacturing network drive the future of industrial automation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not expecting to see major breakthroughs in industrial automation in the next one or two years,\u201d Oda said. \u201cThose machines need to be connected to data first. That&#8217;s data acquisition and visualization. What&#8217;s going to happen first is connecting machinery to machinery. After that, smart cities and smart factories are going to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"featurecaption\">Photo at top: Manufacturing equipment\u00a0on the shop floor, in the warehouse and at the loading docks is being automated for Industry 4.0.
