What role will IoT play in the future of fluid power

Well, I don't have the answer to that question but I know of some experts who can certainly give some very interesting insights into the understanding of the role of IoT in fluid power.

At our November 19-20, 2019 Fluid Power Technology Conference in Cleveland at CSU, our IoT panel will discuss that very topic.  Included on that panel of experts will be Jeremy Drury of IoT Diagnostics, Adam Livesay of Elevat IoT, Mike Nager of Festo, and Rodney Rusk of Bosch Rexroth.


They will be discussing the concepts, methods, and technologies being used to implement IoT into fluid power systems.  They will consider where on your machinery this new technology should be introduced, who in your facility should be involved, and what technologies should be considered.

It is interesting that in a mature technology like fluid power that developers are finding ways to improve the operation, efficiency, and expected results of all types of industrial and mobile machinery including older plants and equipment.

This session is just one of many that will be offered at the Fluid Power Technology Conference.  I invite you to register to attend to take in expert advice from this panel and several others I will be previewing from this blog.

Here is a link to register for the event.
