    1. Digitalisation is driving innovation

    Digitalisation is having a transformative effect on industrial organisations. By knowing how machinery and systems are performing - often in real-time - it is possible to make informed decisions, streamlining operations and delivering cost savings to the bottom line.

    2. Connected compressors – why now?

    Compressed air is estimated to account for around 12 per cent of all energy used in industry globally – and it can be as high as 40 per cent in some facilities. Ensuring the reliability of compressed air supply, and optimising its use, are therefore vital considerations. New technologies now allow air compressors to be connected over a secure network to mobile devices, where their performance can be monitored remotely and plant managers can derive meaningful insights into their operation.

    3. SMARTLINK at-a-glance

    The seven things you should know about SMARTLINK section will answer your questions on how it works, what happens to the data, and more.

    4. How connected compressors deliver customer benefit

    The collection and analysis of data only deliver value when the information is used in a meaningful way. Find out what kinds of insight are possible with SMARTLINK. Read some real-life examples of how SMARTLINK foresight has averted serious consequences for customers.
