TE Connectivity manufactures sensors for use in harsh environments, smart manufacturing and IIoT.
The Industrial Internet of Things, or IIoT, is a digital transformation of industrial manufacturing from linear to dynamic. Industrial automation previously targeted specific manual processes to improve efficiency, accelerating the speed and quality of production through robotics and tooling. IIoT carries this process automation into four dimensions, incorporating sensors and instrumentation to automate data collection, analysis, and reporting. Real-time data collection monitored by precise thresholding creates a system of constant checks and balances, offering perpetual coverage independent of human attention.
Because IIoT operates at a digital level, problems are flagged much sooner than in systems reliant on visual inspection or periodic testing. This creates safer operating conditions for staff, decreases repair costs for equipment, and reduces emissions for the environment. Further, sophisticated software and analytics examine the system holistically, revealing trends at the micro and macro levels that may not be readily apparent through visual inspection. With better information, engineers can make better decisions about production and maintenance.
From miniaturized sensors with multiple digital output signals to wireless sensor technologies, TE offers various solutions to enable Industry 4.0 and IIoT.
Sensors can track the integrity and location of inventory and raw materials which are key to supporting efficient production and supply chain.
Sensors in precision manufacturing rely heavily on process automation to provide continuous operation while helping to decrease risk of injuries.
Condition monitoring can help anticipate machine failures, increase productivity, lower maintenance costs, and improve worker safety.
The rise in urban populations has driven the demand for larger buildings and the ability to control the internal environments.
Sensors are an integral part of most HVAC and refrigeration systems - helping to maintain comfortable indoor climates and efficient system performance.
