Industrial Intelligence - Improving Efficiency and Sustainability in Manufacturing

Sustainability imperatives call for fresh approaches to modern machine design. Selecting optimal motion and automation solutions is multifaceted, with no one-size-fits-all answer. Standard pneumatics, electrical automation, and controlled pneumatics each have trade-offs, whereas CO2 emissions and cost play roles. Guidelines are essential. Leveraging intelligent algorithms and artificial intelligence can reduce CO2 footprints. As an outlook we touch on emerging fields like biotechnology, which demand scalable automation solutions.
