A highly capable machine does not help if the network around it cannot reliably support the data moving through the operation. Connectivity issues can quickly turn into delays, workarounds, and questions about whether the information in a system can be trusted. Network reliability deserves the same attention we give other parts of our critical production infrastructure. When the systems supporting the shop floor are stable, our teams do not have to work around technology. #SmartManufacturing #NetworkInfrastructure #DigitalManufacturing #IIOT
