The Edge Computing whitepaper explores how edge computing transforms industrial operations by processing data closer to the source, reducing latency and network congestion. In Industry 4.0, smart devices on production lines generate and analyze data in real-time, enabling quicker operational decisions and improving overall equipment efficiency (OEE). While edge computing doesn't replace centralized systems like MES or ERP, it enhances their capabilities by providing real-time visibility into production line performance, leading to improved efficiency and a clearer organizational overview.
