Memex Automation's Thomas Smeenk, VP of Business Development, wrote a very nice article for Today's Medical Developments:
Below is a snippet:
"Mazak’s MTConnect networked plant shows global manufacturers that through the Internet of Everything, plants can achieve dramatic improvements through connectivity.
"Earlier this year, Ben Schawe, vice president of manufacturing, presented the results of the implementation of an MTConnect networked plant using MERLIN, a real-time machine monitoring and manufacturing execution systems (MES) solution. The results are nothing short of stunning and a clarion call to manufacturers, globally. With a 17% increase in plant-wide productivity, Mazak has demonstrated the validity of the MTConnect networked plant."
