As part of a change <- - average!> global strategy to create business units for the corporate market, the global giant General Electric (GE), born in 1890 from the hand of the inventions of Thomas Alva Edison, as the incandescent lamp, strong commitment now to its new division digital technology, based on the so-called “industrial internet” to link the physical world of machines and production of large-scale virtual or digital universe.
The application of information technology in the industry it enables increases well they assure specific productivity as it enables to solve one of the main dilemmas, which is the unplanned “downtime” and predicting critical equipment failures.
With that strength, in late September created business unit of GE Digital, with the ambitious goal of becoming the leading fast-digital technology industry worldwide
“The world is changing dramatically and productivity is increasingly critical. Our customers require increases in productivity levels by an average of between 10% and 20% year over year, “says Mel Ramos, commercial director of GE Digital for the entire region of Latin America.
To achieve these goals, in addition to technology, equipment, expertise or business partners to help implement improvement projects need technology that enables them to minimize the possibility of unforeseen events. There
manufacturing sectors where business margin can be lost in a single day stop production for some unforeseen factor, exemplified Ramos. Digital GE’s goal is to help companies reach “zero unplanned downtime,” summarizes
range of customers of GE Digital division is broad. It ranges from government agencies related to areas of infrastructure, to the aviation industry, mining and oil extraction companies; through all kinds of industrial companies producing goods or services such as transport, health, energy generation, exploration, etc.
GE Digital provides software solutions accessible from the “cloud”. It is advanced software to control production processes, to automate, to predict equipment failures with advanced mathematical optimization models or manufacturing processes.
crossing information from different industrial sectors is key to growth the new division of GE. “We bring in the same ‘home’ these different software layers of different industries, to facilitate the sharing of knowledge to our external customers,” says Ramos
The first step of the process to transform an industrial process “Industrial-digital” is the connection or communication: machinery, equipment or process that transmits key data; then it is trying to analyze that information to optimize processes.
