"The evolving demands of modern commerce put immense pressure on manufacturing operations," says Pieter Krynauw, president, Honeywell Intelligrated. "Finding a competitive edge requires leveraging automation systems to their maximum potential, and that means embracing digital transformation and unlocking value from equipment-level data."

Connected offerings from Honeywell Intelligrated are designed to increase reliability and asset utilization for material handling automation systems throughout manufacturing facilities and distribution centers. Data from machine-level sensors enables real-time equipment monitoring, feeds predictive maintenance models and helps uncover causes of idle time to increase asset utilization.

Additionally, attendees can experience the companys TechSight augmented reality maintenance solution firsthand. It uses smart glasses and a videoconferencing platform to instantly connect on-site technicians with remote Honeywell Intelligrated technical support experts. This enables live service instruction via two-way audio and visual communication, expediting service issue resolution and reducing cost.
