Many industrial facilities like mines, wind farms or marine vessels are often located in remote areas. Operating far from other infrastructure has its challenges, such as dealing with harsh weather conditions and ensuring that a qualified workforce is available at the right spot and time.
Remote, however, doesn’t always mean far away: crane operators at container terminals can work from a control room rather than high up in a crane, and in mines, blasting can be managed from a safe distance.
How can automation and digital technologies help address challenges in industrial sites that are hard to reach? And how can technology enhance safety and even open up opportunities for a more diverse workforce?
To find answers, The Process Automation Podcast host Fran Scott is joined by:
Mårten Sjöström, Professor of Signal Processing at Mid Sweden University
Sanjit Shewale, Global Head of Digital at ABB Process Industries
Johannes Sikström, Section Manager Process Control and Analysis at Boliden
