SKF talks about turning big data into smart data

By Michelle Froese | January 26, 2016

let's talkMore data has been created in the last couple of years than in the entire history of the human race. However, 99 % of generated data goes unused in some industries.

So, how do we turn Big Data into Smart Data, and create value for the manufacturing industry?

SKF is sparking the conversation and spreading ideas with a new series of a knowledge-sharing symposium called “Let’s Talk.” Industry experts are discussing topical trends such as Digitalization, Industry 4.0 and Sustainability in front of a live audience.

The first event’s topic is about Big Data and Industrial Digitalization.

Speakers are as follows;

  • Johan Stahre, Head of Division Production Systems, Chalmers University of Technology,
  • Kent Eriksson, Business Consultant Internet of Things, PTC, and
  • Victoria Van Camp, Director Technology and Solutions, SKF Group.

“In the beginning, SKF worked with hand-held devices to take in data from our customers to prolong their machines’ service intervals,” said Van Camp, Director Technology and Solutions, SKF Group. “Data as part of an entire puzzle is more valuable than data in small pieces. Today, Big Data can be analyzed and I see a great opportunity in that. The combination of analytics and diagnostics with knowledgeable people is going to be very powerful in the future.”

The events are being held at Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden. The recorded symposium will be published on SKF’s YouTube channel.
