IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) Webcast Series
Upcoming Webcasts:
The 2017 Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) Webcast Series
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is a transformational strategy that is revolutionizing manufacturing operations across the world. CFE Media publications take an in-depth look at IIoT-related issues, strategies, and opportunities. Building on the past IIoT Webcasts, the 2017 four-part series will examine concepts, technologies, applications and case uses for IIoT and of interest to engineers, managers, and technicians across the production industries.

Webcast Three: IIoT transforms predictive maintenance
Thursday, August 24, 2017 at 11 a.m. PT/1 p.m. CT/2 p.m. ET
One (1) Certified Professional Development Hour (PDH) available for all attendees.
Manufacturers exploiting the latest IIoT industrial-connectivity and analytics advances are melding operations and maintenance data to spot trends that lead managers to contextualized, actionable insights. At the same time, they are building the plant-floor technology infrastructure of the future. Connecting complex machinery and equipment to operations and enterprise systems enables machine learning, predictive maintenance and secure monitor and alarm. IIoT addresses significant integration challenges posed by the unique data types generated by the many kinds of machinery and equipment found in plant environments, from CNC machines to robotics.

Webcast Four: Preventive maintenance: technologies, applications and business models
Thursday, October 19, 2017 at 11 a.m. PT/1 p.m. CT/2 p.m. ET
One (1) Certified Professional Development Hour (PDH) available for all attendees.
It’s a fact that predictive maintenance and services has, out of the box, proven to be the most significant industrial internet of things (IIoT) application. What IIoT-based predictive maintenance and services means is that an equipment supplier can assume greater responsibility for the condition of its equipment in the field, and a plant manager can monitor key points in production for integration with enterprise systems.

Webcast One: Get your head into the cloud
Now available for viewing on-demand
One (1) Certified Professional Development Hour (PDH) available for all attendees.
Automation technologies are converging with information technologies. To handle growing volumes of data generated by IIoT-enabled devices, companies will need powerful data processing capability. Cloud-based environments transform how process-automation projects are engineered and instantiated, replacing client/server. This Webcast focuses on how emergent IIoT technologies change the way process and automation engineers execute projects and sustain productivity in today’s, and tomorrow’s, cyber-physical world.

Webcast Two: Sensing and control at the edge: Microcontroller kits
Now available for viewing on-demand
One (1) Certified Professional Development Hour (PDH) available for all attendees.
Microcontroller kits emerge as a go-to tool in IIoT-based industrial automation
In an unforeseen instance of innovation, microcontroller kits are being used to build IIoT digital devices and interactive objects. The industrial-automation industry has taken note of these commercially available edge-computer, board-level embedded controllers. Attend the IIoT webcast on sensing and control at the edge to ask your questions as Arlen Nipper discusses with moderator Kevin Parker and Control Engineering editor Mark Hoske the future of microcontroller kits in industrial automation.
