Indian Chemical News Preventive maintenance and using AI

A revamp is underway of a widely revered strategy to avoid or mitigate industrial equipment failures. The failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) is a core Six Sigma tool for improving processes and products. Recent technology advancements are breathing new life into this longtime, largely unchanged best practice.

A confluence of factors like Industry 4.0, the knowledge gap and COVID-19 have created new expectations among the industrial workforce, including the need to grow and retain industrial data scientists.

Reactor operations continue to be critical for today’s refineries, but reactor simulation solutions have traditionally been difficult to use and maintain. The problem is magnified as experienced engineers and operators retire at a faster rate.

面对动荡、不确定、复杂和模糊（VUCA）的环境，工业企业能够做些什么呢？艾斯本认为，利用工业AI是一个核心的策略，它能确保供应链的弹性和敏捷性，以满足不断变化的市场需求。去年年底，艾斯本举办了一场虚拟客户圆桌会议，出席会议的有使用aspenONE Supply Chain Management (SCM)解决方案的欧洲化工制造企业。在会上，这些企业客户分享了他们所面临的动荡的供应链挑战，以及AspenTech SCM如何帮助他们应对目前空前艰难的环境。

Managing the master schedule for pharmaceutical production is like riding a roller coaster — with both calm periods and high-velocity swings. It requires making complex decisions daily in response to fluctuating and intertwining inputs across multiple production areas and over multiple product families.

Today’s pharmaceutical manufacturers face increasing pressure to deliver high-quality medicines quickly, efficiently and economically while complying with regulatory requirements and meeting sustainability goals. AspenTech’s Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) solution digitally guides and records batch procedures in line with the ISPE’s Pharma 4.0 initiative, increasing production quality and reducing cycle time, cost and waste.
