Modern manufacturing technology involves teaching your factory how to monitor itself, personalize products, and make changes as needed. But how do you get there? It all starts with sensors and the Internet of Things (IoT).

IoT devices are all around us today as consumers. With an app on a smartphone, we can change the temperature of our house, turn on/off lights, open/close the garage door, and even check for water leaks in our basements. This internet-connected device revolution exists just as profoundly in industry, as well. This one-hour webinar will introduce you to the manufacturing counterpart of IoT – starting with common sensors and their manufacturing applications.

Attend this webinar, and you will learn about Industry 4.0, the possibilities being created by modern technology, and how the Internet of Things (IoT) fits into this vision. We’ll explore the capabilities of limit switches, inductive proximity sensors, photoelectric sensors, ultrasonic sensors, capacitive sensors, and specialty sensors, among others.
