Could reading instruction manuals become a thing of the past?
Simon Bennett, Aveva’s head of AI innovation, says the AI can locate where there has been, say, a power failure. It then delves into “a monster PDF manual”. From this, the AI - via a computer screen - generates different ideas of what the problem might be. It can also produce a 3D image of the affected machinery, such as a turbine, with Mr Bennett noting that engineers appreciate such visual responses to their questions.
Dozuki’s AI-powered system CreatorPro can automatically create a user guide based on an engineer making a video of him or her talking through and carrying out a process. “The user uploads the video, and a step-by-step instruction guide is automatically created,” says Allen Yeung, Dozuki’s vice president of product. “The AI chooses the text that accompanies each step, and it can automatically translate that into other languages.”
Empower Your Industrial Data Strategy: Integrate Litmus Edge with AVEVA PI
Litmus Edge provides several integration solutions to unlock your data from the AVEVA PI System, moving past the limitations of the Asset Framework SDK and PI Web API to enhance accessibility:
- DH Historian Agent: This Windows-based agent harnesses the Asset Framework SDK to collect data from the PI historian and securely transmit it to Litmus Edge for further processing.
- Northbound Integration: Using the PI Web API and OMF (Open Messaging Format), this integration enables Litmus Edge to send processed data back to the PI server, simplifying connectivity with proprietary OEM machines.
- Cloud Integration: OSIsoft’s acquisition by Aveva and the introduction of the AVEVA™ Data Hub allow Litmus Edge to send data directly to cloud-based services, enabling remote data management and analysis.
ABB co-launches interoperability initiative to unlock Industrial IoT insights for more efficient and sustainable industry
At the Hannover Messe on April 23, 2024, founding members ABB (including B&R), Capgemini, Microsoft, Rockwell Automation, Schneider Electric (including AVEVA) and Siemens announced collaboration on a new initiative to deliver interoperability for Industrial IoT ecosystems.
Hosted by the Linux Foundation and open to further interested parties, the Margo initiative draws its name from the Latin word for ‘edge’ and will define mechanisms for interoperability between applications, devices and orchestration software at the edge1 of industrial ecosystems. In particular, Margo will make it easy to run and combine applications from any ecosystem member on top of the hardware and runtime system of any other member. Margo aims to deliver on its interoperability promise through a modern and agile open-source approach, which will bring industrial companies increased flexibility, simplicity and scalability as they undergo digital transition in complex, multi-vendor environments.

Data-driven Maintenance Work Order Management with Crosser and AVEVA
The customer faced a significant challenge with its existing automated work order management system. This system relied on monitoring maintenance metrics using PLCs alongside predefined trigger points. AVEVA System Platform was responsible for initiating SAP to trigger specific work orders aligned with predefined work plans. However, this approach demanded manual adjustments to PLCs and the AVEVA System Platform each time a new device was introduced or new parameters were required.
Moreover, when a SAP work order was completed and counters needed to be reset to zero, manual connections to the PLCs were necessary, introducing operational risks and requiring substantial manual effort with each new device or reset. The existing approach not only carried operational risks with each change but also imposed significant manual labor for every new device and reset process.
Autonomous operations: The key to sustainably capitalizing on FPSO market growth
Yinson’s partnership with AVEVA, named Project Polaris, aims to combine our industry and technology expertise with its in-depth knowledge of the industry and FPSOs. Project Polaris is an integrated asset management solution consisting of AVEVA™ Asset Strategy Optimization, AVEVA™ Predictive Analytics, AVEVA™ BI Gateway, AVEVA™ Unified Operations Center, and AVEVA™ Work Tasks used in conjunction with existing solutions including AVEVA™ PI System™. It’s designed to improve the overall operations, maintenance, and reliability of the FPSO assets and drive toward sustainable, autonomous operations.
Using a unified operations center that provides a common user experience across the organization, Project Polaris is already helping Yinson overcome business challenges. From visualization to predictive analytics, Project Polaris integrates with existing applications and is scalable, allowing the solution to continue to gain value while reaching goals for 15 unique use cases. By monitoring asset reliability and efficiency, users can understand asset health and performance to make data-driven decisions that optimize operations, reduce unplanned downtime to zero, prevent failures, and maximize production through effective asset lifecycle management.
Harnessing Machine Learning for Anomaly Detection in the Building Products Industry with Databricks
One of the biggest data-driven use cases at LP was monitoring process anomalies with time-series data from thousands of sensors. With Apache Spark on Databricks, large amounts of data can be ingested and prepared at scale to assist mill decision-makers in improving quality and process metrics. To prepare these data for mill data analytics, data science, and advanced predictive analytics, it is necessary for companies like LP to process sensor information faster and more reliably than on-premises data warehousing solutions alone.

Our connected future: How industrial data sharing can unite a fragmented world
The rapid and effective development of the coronavirus vaccines has set a new benchmark for today’s industries–but it is not the only one. Increasingly, savvy enterprises are starting to share industrial data strategically and securely beyond their own four walls, to collaborate with partners, suppliers and even customers.
Worldwide, almost nine out of 10 (87%) business executives at larger industrial companies cite a need for the type of connected data that delivers unique insights to address challenges such as economic uncertainty, unstable geopolitical environments, historic labor shortages, and disrupted supply chains. In fact, executives report in a global study that the most common benefits of having an open and agnostic information-sharing ecosystem are greater efficiency and innovation (48%), increasing employee satisfaction (45%), and staying competitive with other companies (44%).

Inside Schneider Electric’s Smart Factory
According to Clayton, the goal of Schneider Electric’s IIoT initiative in Lexington is to boost efficiency and overall market competitiveness by introducing technologies that modernize and reinvent the control, monitoring and management processes of the plant.
It’s part of Schneider Electric’s global effort to digitally transform its factories and distribution centers. The 183-year-old company’s supply chain encompasses nearly 300 factories and logistics centers in more than 40 countries. Most of those facilities use the same IIoT technology that the company offers to its customers.
“These facilities are core to [our] Tailored Sustainable Connected Supply Chain 4.0 program, which creates a customized, sustainable and end-to-end connected supply chain across the plan, procurement, make, customer and sustain domains,” explains Clayton.
