In order to remain competitive in today’s global economy, manufacturing companies are working to improve efficiency, productivity and quality. To do so, they must proactively prevent defects instead of corrective action. 

Document control helps manufacturers keep their documents in check. Organizations use document control software to manage structured documents used in the design, development and manufacturing of products, throughout their entire lifecycles.

Over the past 50 years, computer programming languages have made several significant advancements all focused on making a computer easier to use in a more human-readable format. If you wanted to learn programming in the early days you would have had to learn Assembly Language, a set of binary machine operation codes that instructed the microprocessor how to perform each step. 

Industry 4.0-empowered solutions help manufacturers become more nimble, integrated, efficient, safe and sustainable.

As energy becomes more expensive and sustainability more prized, manufacturers are under the gun to reduce energy consumption. Process monitoring, which standardizes and optimizes manufacturing processes— helps to make this possible in the age of Industry 4.0.
