Even at operations considered to be world-class, there are significant opportunities to improve throughput, cost, and productivity. Continuous improvement through data visibility and business intelligence has largely plateaued. Machine learning offers an exciting path to a step change in performance and competitive advantage, but current ML solutions are not working for industrial operations. Praemo offers a new approach that makes industrial machine learning a competitive advantage for industrial operations. The Praemo Razor™ engine ingests your data as-is from your automation, quality, historian, maintenance, and other manufacturing systems of record to deliver differentiating insights to drive next level continuous improvement. You don’t need a data science team to leverage Razor™ immediately for predictive maintenance, predictive quality, and continuous process optimization.
