EP 9: Bringing Out the Best in Control Valves
Today, however, diagnostics and analytics data is much more easily accessible, which makes it possible to move from reactive to predictive and eventually prescriptive maintenance. Listen to today’s episode where Don Mack and Jonas Norinder talk with Frank Fortino about valve monitoring and how it can improve process control, enable better maintenance planning and minimize those dreaded unplanned shutdowns.
EP8: How to Prioritize and Implement Digital Technologies
Generally this podcast is about the newest technologies for digitalization within the process industries, but when an organization is interested in these technologies, how do you take the first step? I am joined once again by one of our digitalization consultants, Jonas Norinder, and we will be diving into our methodology for helping customers prioritize and implement their digital transformation.

EP5: Practical Use Cases for Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
As the digital transformation in manufacturing progresses, an increasing amount of data is becoming available. Artificial intelligence gives plant personnel the opportunity to analyze and convert this data into useful information from which actionable decisions can be made. In this episode we are diving into Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. I am joined by Don Mack and Clayton French to talk about how process industries customers are using these technologies today, and some of the key considerations to getting started with leveraging these technologies to gain valuable insights for your own organization.
