Make Smart Decisions with Smart Devices - Rockwell Automation Interview Hosted by Craig Resnick

There is no question that the digital transformation journey requires end users and OEMs to obtain much more production and machine information, which means that more industrial components need to have the ability to collect production operations or machine data, process that data into meaningful information, and send that information to the edge, to a control system, to a cloud, or some combination of those options. This has led to the development of smart devices that have these built-in capabilities to help production lines and machines to be more productive and information-enabled to increase production efficiencies and decrease unscheduled downtime.  In this podcast, ARC Vice President Craig Resnick interviews Rockwell Automation’s Brian Taylor, Business Director, Safety, Sensing and Connectivity, and Rodrigo Marangon, Global Business Director, Industrial Components Business to discuss what is a smart device, what type of products meet this definition of a smart device, applications where customers are deploying smart devices, examples of the results customers are seeing, what role are analytics playing in smart devices, and what the next generation of smart devices will look like.Would you like to be a guest on our growing podcast?Do you have an intriguing or thought provoking topic you'd like to discuss on our podcast?
