DIGITAL MANUFACTURING & IOT IN INDIANA
Tom Linebarger, CEO, Cummins Inc.
CEO Executive SummitIndianapolis, IN - 2015
Q: How is Cummins leveraging the Internet of Things?
A: Like many companies, we gather information in our manufacturing process that helps us from a supply chain and complexity point of view. We’re also using telematics [tracking and diagnostics] in the fields. Even though we test and model everything before a product launch, we still end up having issues to resolve when they finally get experienced by customers. With telematics, we can bring information from the sophisticated control systems and sensors on engines to a large database and query that database to solve issues much more quickly.
