Where artificial intelligence is breaking new ground
Whether it’s efficiency, compliance or decarbonization, companies in the process industry are facing an array of challenges. Endress+Hauser and SICK have entered into a strategic partnership in process automation to provide customers with even better support.
Why are SICK and Endress+Hauser joining forces on process automation? What is the benefit to customers? And what is required for this partnership to be a success? Mats Gökstorp and Peter Selders take the time to answer our questions.
Optimizing processes with AI requires users and providers to embark on a shared journey. Endress+Hauser follows a standardized procedure, ensuring transparency at every step and fostering trust.
AI doesn’t always have to be the answer. A multi-sensor system such as the QWX43 fermentation monitor supplies data to conventional, cloud-based algorithms – another way for users to benefit from digitalization. Microbrewer Armin Pillmeier uses real-time analysis for precise control of fermentation processes.
Jawad Tayyub and his team are developing AI solutions for next-generation measuring devices and advanced production technology. He is championing the opportunities offered by the new technology and is calling for a dialogue between researchers and practitioners.
From purchasing to logistics, Endress+Hauser already utilizes AI in many areas to create transparency and optimize processes. One application specifically helps to monitor product quality in the field.
In an increasingly complex world, Endress+Hauser is taking steps to open up to people and organizations outside the company in a collaborative search for innovations. The approach has already made it possible to quickly gain ground in the field of AI.
Hydrologists Dr Benjamin Mewes and Dr Henning Oppel founded Okeanos in 2019. The start-up, based in Bochum, Germany, is working on projects including AI-based solutions for flood protection, storm monitoring and optimizing water treatment plant management.
Rapid assessment of measurements at water treatment plants is possible thanks to the experience of the operators. In the future, machine learning could help spot the need for action. Endress+Hauser is working on this kind of assistance system for liquid analysis.
There is more than one kind of artificial intelligence – and it’s nothing new. Artificial intelligence stands to improve our everyday existence like few technologies have done before. Yet we are seldom aware that it is already shaping our lives.
Supplying water is a mammoth task in the Philippine mega-metropolis of Manila. Maynilad tackles this challenge with intelligent data models and steady digitalization of its infrastructure.
Technology, especially digitalization, can help conserve resources in the water industry, thus promoting the UN’s global goals for sustainable development. Emily Hoon, global industry manager for water & wastewater, explains how Endress+Hauser supports its customers in this area.
