Spill and leakage detection in manufacturing
industrial environments: leak hazards and impacts Industrial environments handle many PROCESSING tasks that involve HAZARDOUS liquids. For example, chemical MANUFACTURING and fuel handling sites store acids, solvents and oils. As a result, undetected leaks can lead to environmental contamination, serious health risks for workers and lengthy downtime. When a SMALL LEAK escapes a drum or […]
Queue detection in manufacturing reduces wait times
queue: Identifying Bottlenecks and Their Causes In manufacturing, a queue describes work-in-progress accumulation at a station. A queue appears when items wait for processing because the downstream capacity cannot keep pace. First, identify the station where jobs in the queue pile up. Next, map the process step by step. Then, collect timestamps for arrivals and […]
Thermal imaging for hotspot detection in manufacturing
thermal, thermal image and infrared in industrial process Thermal sensing plays a core role in modern industrial process control. First, thermal cameras capture infrared radiation and turn it into a thermal image that operators can read at a glance. Next, the sensor measures the infrared radiation by wavelength and then the system maps that energy […]
Metrics and KPIs for manufacturing productivity tracking
manufacturing kpis and metrics Manufacturing KPIs and metrics are quantifiable measures that align with operational and strategic goals. They translate shop-floor activity into numbers. They help teams act quickly, correct problems, and plan investments. In short, these metrics tell managers what to improve and where to focus. Companies often group measurements by efficiency, quality, delivery, […]
Perimeter breach detection in manufacturing
Perimeter security: Understanding perimeter threats in manufacturing Manufacturing facilities face a growing range of perimeter threats. First, facilities attract attention because they hold valuable intellectual property and critical production lines. For example, manufacturing accounted for 26% of all cyberattacks in 2025. Second, attackers mix physical intrusion with cyber techniques to cause disruption. As a result, […]
Occupancy analytics heatmap for manufacturing insights
Understanding occupancy analytics: occupancy and analytics in manufacturing Occupancy analytics brings clarity to factory floors, and it does so by combining people counts, movement patterns, and contextual data. In a manufacturing setting occupancy means the presence and location of workers, equipment, and materials within a defined area. Analytics then converts those raw counts into trends, […]
