How AI and ML can improve sensor integrity

The integrity of sensors and actuators is critical to the safe and profitable operations of industrial processes. However, the lack of visibility into the heath of those sensors and actuators makes it challenging to ensure their integrity. The slightest sensor variation can have a rippling effect on production rate, scrap, and waste. Sensor integrity affects consumer-facing issues such as safety, customer satisfaction, and higher warranty costs. Nielsen conducted a survey for Advanced Technology Services and founded that the average cost of poor-quality calibration costs manufacturers $1,734,000 each year.
