The way fab shops harness the power of welding and specifically GMAW production data has changed dramatically over the past decade. As Industry 4.0 trends shift from just fancy buzzwords to an expected part of remaining competitive, the Industrial Internet of Things (lloT) has continued to marry smart technology with traditional manufacturing processes. Today's technology has made it easier than ever to deliver machine connectivity and real-time data across an organization, its employees, processes, and products. These changes are pushing fabricators to new digital heights on the shop floor, the back office, and the C-suite.
