Automation engineers have heard a lot about condition monitoring in recent years as one of the most common examples of how AI and digital transformation are actually hitting the ground with real results for industry. Sensing is certainly the foundation of the process, but it requires the proper mix of equipment and know-how to move from a simple project to a fully scaled-up implementation. In this episode of the Moore's Lobby podcast, Control.com's David Peterson visits Salim Dabbous, the Director of Consulting & Digital Solutions at SICK. Salim has a broad background that includes working with end users and integrators. He is now a director for a leading sensing manufacturer. Salim brings insights to help get started and move forward with successful projects that deliver tangible results.

Históricamente, la tecnología ha permitido que el ser humano trabaje menos horas produciendo lo mismo o más: ¿la IA es una amenaza o una oportunidad? La llegada de la inteligencia artificial (IA) está marcando un punto de inflexión sin precedentes en la economía global, planteando un escenario de reconfiguración productiva que supera en velocidad a cualquier revolución tecnológica anterior. A diferencia de la Revolución Industrial, cuya asimilación llevó décadas, la actual disrupción digital se desarrolla en tiempo real, impulsada por perfiles técnicos jóvenes y a menudo ajenos a las estructuras corporativas tradicionales. Este fenómeno no solo está alterando la forma en que se ejecutan las tareas, sino que está poniendo en tela de juicio la necesidad de ciertos procesos intermedios que, hasta ahora, sostenían gran parte del empleo en sectores administrativos y de servicios. La clave del debate económico actual no reside únicamente en la destrucción de puestos de trabajo, sino en el incremento de la productividad. Históricamente, la tecnología ha permitido que el ser humano trabaje menos horas produciendo lo mismo o más, lo que ha derivado en una reducción de la vida laboral y un aumento del tiempo de ocio. Sin embargo, la IA introduce una variable nueva: la capacidad de realizar tareas complejas de análisis de información, programación y redacción con una eficiencia que puede reducir plantillas de decenas de personas a un solo supervisor. Esta fricción de ajuste es la que genera una preocupación creciente en sectores como la traducción, la edición de textos, la arquitectura y los servicios de atención al cliente. Esta semana, en Economía Para Quedarte Sin Amigos, Nuria Richart y Domingo Soriano analizan cómo puede influri en nuestras vidas (y en nuestros empleos), las nuevas herramientas. Y lo hacen acompañados de un viejo conocido, Juan Manuel Sabugo, y fundador de Digita y L4H, dos empresas dedicadas a las telecomunicaciones y la domótica, y experto en nuevas tecnologías.Música Esta semana, el protagonista de nuestra selección musical es el grupo británico The Prodigy. Y estos son los temas que hemos escuchado: "Breathe" "Firstarter" "Invaders must die"

In this episode, Matt Housley and I reunite for a Friday catch-up, bringing back some of that classic Monday Morning Data Chat energy. We dive into the absurdity of the "buzzword industrial complex," and why declaring it the "Year of Context" is mostly just industry hype, per usual.We also tackle the chaotic reality of deploying AI agents (including the ultimate YOLO, OpenClaw) without proper data governance, the Anthropic class action lawsuit regarding copyright, and why regional conferences like DataTune are awesome. Finally, we discuss the shifting landscape of media, the death of traditional book publishing models, and the rise of the independent, niche creator.

Hello friends! Welcome to another exciting episode of Trve. Cvlt. Pop! It's all about music innit.On this weeks show, our old buddy Sam Sleight is here to talk about the most integral artists in two of his favourite musical genres, as we induct 4 bands onto the Mount Rushmore of noise rock and industrial.Plus there are reviews on new music from Harry Styles, Lamb of God, Mitski and Carpenter Brut, a lost pop tune from Fiction Factory and we look at David Draiman weirdly getting up in Franz Ferdinand's faces.

Industrial hemp has been developing quietly in New Zealand for more than two decades. In this episode, we're talking with Richard Barge, treasurer of the New Zealand Hemp Industries Association, about how the sector has evolved — from early government trials in the early 2000s to a growing network of farmers, seed processors, fiber decortication facilities and researchers exploring hemp's role in the bio-economy. Barge explains how New Zealand's hemp industry has taken a deliberate approach to growth, scaling carefully as markets develop rather than chasing acreage without demand. The conversation explores the country's regulatory framework, including the long-standing Industrial Hemp Regulations under the Misuse of Drugs Act and the policy changes now underway that could allow farmers to grow industrial hemp without a license. Other topics discussed: • Hemp seed foods and New Zealand's export-oriented agriculture • The emergence of fiber processing and hempcrete construction • Challenges around feeding hemp by-products to livestock • The role of research institutions and universities in developing new hemp materials • Opportunities for international collaboration and seed production across hemispheres Barge also describes the current supply chain in New Zealand, including seed processing, decortication capacity and companies working to introduce hemp into textiles, building materials and consumer products.

Missed the Industrial Marketing Summit? Wendy and Lee recap the biggest takeaways and behind-the-scenes moments from the event and even tease a few plans already in motion for 2027. Tune in to hear what industrial marketers can't stop talking about this week. In this episode, Wendy Covey and Lee Chapman debrief the recent Industrial Marketing Summit, sharing behind-the-scenes insights, key takeaways, and innovative strategies discussed at the event. One of the most notable changes since last year's summit was the dramatic increase in AI adoption among industrial marketers. While only about 10% of attendees reported using generative AI in their daily work the previous year, roughly 80% raised their hands when asked the same question this year. The discussion extended beyond experimentation to practical implementation, including custom GPTs, AI agents, and workflow automation. Another major takeaway came from keynote speaker Rand Fishkin, who highlighted how buyer behavior is evolving in the era of generative search. Website sessions may be declining, but revenue continues to rise suggesting that traditional attribution models are becoming less reliable. Instead of focusing solely on traffic metrics, marketers should prioritize high-quality engagement and conversions from more informed buyers.The Industrial Marketing Summit is already gearing up for its 2027 event, which Wendy and Lee said will be returning to Austin, Texas in late February. After another successful year, the team will review attendee survey feedback to refine the program and continue growing the conference experience. Planning will ramp up in the spring, with calls for presenters and sponsors expected around June. A notable addition for 2027 will be the introduction of the Industrial Marketing Summit Awards, designed to recognize standout work and innovation in industrial marketing. As the conference enters its fourth year, the goal is to build on its momentum while continuing to deliver a highly relevant, community-driven event.ResourcesConnect with Lee on LinkedInConnect with Wendy on LinkedInPurchase the Industrial Marketing Digital PassRegister for the 2026 State of Marketing to Engineers Webinar

In a historic conversation for Women's History Month and our second-ever Trades Day, we are joined by Roxanne Brown, the 10th International President of the United Steelworkers (USW). As the first woman to lead North America's largest industrial union, Brown shares her journey from an immigrant household in Jamaica to the halls of power in Washington, D.C. She discusses the unique challenges facing the industrial trades in 2026, including a massive bargaining year across the oil, steel and paper sectors. Brown also breaks down the USW's strategy for combating digital misinformation, the importance of "kitchen-table" messaging and why the union is doubling down on leadership development to ensure the next generation of workers is ready to fight for the middle class. Key Takeaways A Historic Legacy: Brown reflects on her path to the presidency and her "member-first" leadership philosophy. 2026 Bargaining Blitz: Insights into upcoming negotiations in oil, aluminum, tires, and steel.

Manufacturing Hub is back with Episode 252, where co hosts Vlad Romanov and Dave Griffith break down what an AI survival guide should actually look like for manufacturing and industrial automation professionals. This is not a hype conversation about replacing people with magic software. It is a grounded discussion about what AI tools can do today, where they fail, why context and data quality matter so much, and how industrial teams should think about experimentation without losing sight of real operating constraints.In this episode, Vlad and Dave unpack the evolution many engineers and technical leaders have already felt in real time, from early prompt engineering, to agent based workflows, to MCP servers, skills, context management, and the growing cost of tokens and infrastructure. The conversation moves beyond generic AI commentary and into the reality of plant floor environments, where success depends on process knowledge, data architecture, OT constraints, cybersecurity, governance, and clear business value. One of the strongest themes throughout the episode is that manufacturers cannot skip the hard work of structuring data, understanding workflows, and defining use cases simply because AI tools are moving quickly.Vlad brings a very practical industrial lens to the discussion. Drawing on years of hands on experience across controls, manufacturing systems, plant modernization, and digital transformation, he explains why industrial AI has to start with operational context. A maintenance team, an engineering team, and a quality team do not need the same data, do not ask the same questions, and should not be handed the same AI workflows. That distinction matters. This conversation also highlights why the best industrial AI implementations will likely come from teams that combine domain expertise with strong technical execution, rather than generic AI shops trying to force a solution into environments they do not fully understand.Dave adds an important systems and adoption perspective, especially around cost, scaling, management expectations, and the danger of trying to prompt your way past foundational architecture work. Together, Vlad and Dave explore why manufacturers are interested in AI, why many are afraid of being left behind, and why so many projects still stall once they hit the realities of obsolete equipment, weak data models, fragmented systems, and unclear ownership of information. They also discuss deterministic logic versus LLM behavior, reporting workflows, industrial dashboards, PLC code generation concerns, and the practical question every manufacturer should ask before investing: what problem are we solving, for whom, and what is the measurable return?For those new to Vlad, he is an electrical engineer and manufacturing leader with deep experience across industrial automation, controls, data systems, OT architecture, modernization strategy, and plant operations. Through Joltek, Vlad works with manufacturers on digital transformation, IT OT architecture and integration, modernization planning, operational improvement, and technical workforce enablement.

In this episode, Jean-Martin and Chris sit down with Linley Dixon, co-director of the Real Organic Project and a farmer/soil scientist, for a deep conversation about the future of organic agriculture. Linley shares how corporate interests, hydroponic systems, and regulatory loopholes are reshaping the meaning of “organic,” and why many farmers are working to protect the integrity of the label. The discussion explores the tensions between small farms and industrial-scale organic production, the economic realities farmers face, and why grassroots action may be the most powerful path forward. Along the way, the conversation dives into soil health, common myths around no-till and regenerative practices, and the science behind resilient farming systems. Timestamps[02:37] Meet Linley Dixon (Real Organic Project)[07:56] The hidden problems inside the organic industry[10:25] Hydroponic systems vs soil-grown organic farming[15:23] From scientist to farmer: Linley Dixon's journey[20:14] The origin of the Real Organic Project[31:31] Why farmers are joining the Real Organic certification movement[37:10] The real cost of food: Why organic seems expensive[41:16] Corporate consolidation and power in the food system[45:25] Market saturation and the challenge for new small farms[48:11] Industrial “organic” eggs and certification loopholes[56:42] Building a farmer-led movement to protect organic[01:07:24] Organic certification: Does the label still matter?[01:17:37] Inside Linley's greenhouse system (high-yield tomato production)[01:31:03] Soil science explained: Mycorrhizae, tillage, and no-till myths[01:47:37] Local food vs global food systems[01:53:53] Rapid fire: books, advice, and lessons from farmingSponsorsReal Organic Project: Get Involved.

Traditional cheesemakers respect the process of cheesemaking. They honor the environment, the animal, its milk and traditional techniques – all of which lead to delicious, nutritious cheese. Industrial cheesemaking, in stark contrast, emphasizes sterile conditions, uniformity, and artificial inputs (including GMO-derived rennet). The cheese that results from the conventional approach is consistent... but misses a lot in terms of flavor profile and nutrients.   Trevor Warmedahl is a cheesemaker, fermentation educator and the author of Cheese Trekking. Today, he takes us on a cheese adventure, as we gain insight on traditional, artisanal cheesemaking. He gives us pause about what is in our fridge and where it comes from.   Trevor has trekked all over the world, working alongside artisanal cheesemakers, so he understands and shares the importance of working with (instead of against) microbes and nature. He describes cheeses you may have never heard of, along with unique approaches to making them. Trevor also helps us take stock of what has been lost in our modern approach to cheesemaking.   Visit Trevor's website: sourmilkschool.com Become a member and/or donate to the Weston A.

Core Reasons for Being Trapped: The primary reasons owners cannot leave their businesses include strong emotional attachment (37%), financial dependence on the business income (25%), inability to sell at a profitable price (20%), and a lack of suitable buyers (19%). According to LinkedIn. Workload and Burnout: Many owners are forced to work longer hours, with 60% struggling to get time off and 54% having given up hobbies and personal activities, according to Medium. For Laurie Barkman: Growing up, I launched my first services business at age 10, mowing lawns, raking leaves, and babysitting. In high school, I leaned into leadership, learned how to address challenges head-on, and made a lasting impact on my community. That drive to build winning teams took me to Cornell University, where I studied Industrial and Labor Relations. I began my career at Ingersoll-Rand, a global engineering firm, working shoulder-to-shoulder with engineers and plant teams to reengineer operational processes for productivity and cost improvements. It was there that I first saw how analytical and technical leaders think.   Later, I earned my MBA from Carnegie Mellon University, intentionally choosing a rigorous quantitative program to refine the analytical skills I knew I'd need to lead and advise in structured, technical environments. Over the years, I built a career spanning Fortune 500s and startups, leading teams through high-growth transformation, including time in logistics, SaaS, e-commerce, and operations, often in collaboration with engineers, data-driven founders, and technical teams.   The search was part of a long-term succession plan. A third-generation family business and leading transportation and logistics company in North America sought a new divisional CEO. In the interview process, I was told, “We're not interviewing you for the next 2 years…we're interviewing you for the next 20.” Playing the long game excited me. Taking on this role was a perfect storm of high expectations, internal resistance, and every eye was watching. I wasn't necessarily who they expected, but I knew how to create value. I steadied the ship and shifted mindsets towards transformation. Eventually, we guided the company to a successful sale to a Global Fortune 50 company. After the acquisition was completed, I stayed on as a senior executive and served on the Integration Steering Committee, advising on the launch of new e-commerce fulfillment services. Back to the original notion of staying in the company for 20 years. As things played out, my tenure was only three. Was I disappointed? Heck no. I realized that while we may have a plan, sometimes plans change for good reason. The acquisition “put some money in my jeans” and gave me the flexibility to pursue my entrepreneurial passions.   For more information: https://lauriebarkman.me/ LinkedIn: @LaurieBarkman Learn more about your ad choices.

Is the Government Legally Killing Us? Scott Schara's new book, which will be released on March 10, 2026, is a relentless search for the truth after the death of his daughter, Grace Schara, in a Wisconsin hospital. Framed as both a legal and moral reckoning, Schara draws on court filings, regulatory history, and firsthand experience to uncover an agenda that you have to be sitting down to believe. It establishes that the medical system we've been programmed to trust is killing us and that the legal system protects the guilty—what the author calls “the crime of the millennium.”Links: Is the Government Legally Killing Us?: Is the Evidence Obvious?

In this episode of Manufacturing Hub, Vlad and Dave sit down with Travis Cox and Kevin McCluskey from Inductive Automation to unpack what was actually proven at ProveIt and why it matters for teams trying to modernize plants without building a fragile mess of point to point integrations. If you have ever looked at a shiny demo and wondered what the real architecture looks like, how it scales beyond a single line, and what it takes to roll out across multiple sites without turning every change into a high risk event, this conversation is for you.Travis and Kevin walk through their ProveIt Enterprise B build and the thinking behind it. The core idea is simple but powerful: treat the factory like a system that needs a shared digital infrastructure, built on open standards, where data is contextualized and reusable. They break down how they used Ignition Edge close to PLCs for resiliency, local HMIs, and disciplined data modeling, then moved data through MQTT into a Unified Namespace so multiple applications can consume the same trusted signals and context. This is the difference between “we can connect to anything” and “we can scale without rewriting everything every time the business changes.” Open standards show up repeatedly in the conversation because ProveIt is specifically designed to force interoperability and practical implementation tradeoffs. Inductive Automation has also written about ProveIt as a place where MQTT, OPC UA, and SQL show up as real foundations rather than slogans.From there, the episode gets into the part that should make both OT and IT teams pay attention: modern deployment practices applied to industrial applications. Kevin outlines a clear maturity path from a single designer workflow to version control, then to containerized deployments, and finally to full GitOps style promotion across dev, staging, and production using tools like Argo CD, Helm, Kubernetes, and release promotion concepts that look like what the software world has used for years. Argo CD is explicitly built around Git repositories as the source of truth for desired state, which is exactly why it fits this style of deployment. The live portion of the conversation demonstrates how fast this can get when the infrastructure is treated as code: they spin up a brand new “site four” by submitting a form, generating a pull request, merging it, and letting the pipeline do the rest.Timestamps00:00 Welcome back and why this ProveIt recap matters01:35 Meet Travis Cox and Kevin McCluskey from Inductive Automation03:10 What ProveIt is and the key vendor questions it forces05:20 Enterprise B architecture overview from PLC to Edge to site to enterprise07:30 HMI walkthrough across liquid processing, filling, packaging, palletizing09:05 Why deploy Ignition Edge instead of only a centralized site gateway12:05 Design once, reuse everywhere and what that means for scaling quickly14:35 On prem realities versus cloud infrastructure in the ProveIt environment17:10 MCP, n8n workflows, and bringing live operational context into AI20:40 i3X style API access to models, history, and alarms for interoperability23:15 GitHub, Docker Compose, Helm, Kubernetes, Argo CD, Cargo and GitOps promotion36:55 Spinning up a new site live and what it changes for multi site rolloutsAbout the hostsVlad Romanov is an electrical engineer and MBA who has spent over a decade building and modernizing manufacturing systems across industrial automation, controls, and plant operations.

Industrial manufacturing finance is complex by nature. Multiple ERPs, acquisitions, intercompany activity, and heavy Excel reliance can make it difficult for leaders to gain clear visibility into performance. In this episode, we explore how modern finance teams are turning that complexity into clarity using a unified CPM platform. Through three real-world transformation stories from the industrial manufacturing sector, we break down how finance leaders solved critical challenges around working capital visibility, post-acquisition carve-outs, and operational reporting. You'll hear how organizations used OneStream to establish a single source of truth, introduce structured workflows, and give executives the transparency they need to confidently answer questions about cash flow, receivables, and business performance. If you're a CFO, Controller, or FP&A leader navigating the realities of manufacturing finance, this episode highlights what it takes to build an "ironclad" finance function, one that replaces fragmented processes with visibility, accountability, and faster decision-making.

Industrial systems are responsible for 75% of global emissions, yet only a quarter of climate-focused VC money flows into them. Not because investors don't care — but because these systems are hard. They're interconnected. Capital-intensive. Slow-moving. Technically dense. And deeply under-innovated.Almanac Ventures is built to change that.In this episode of the EUVC Podcast, Andreas Munk Holm sits down with Jo Slota-Newson and Marc Sabas, co-founders of Almanac Ventures — a new European seed and pre-seed deep tech fund laser-focused on unlocking decarbonisation in industrial systems through scientific breakthroughs and commercial discipline.This is a pitch episode — a chance for the EUVC LP & GP community to hear directly what Almanac stands for, how they invest, and why the next decade of industrial innovation will be shaped by specialist deep tech funds with true scientific and financial edge.Here's what's covered:00:49 | What Almanac Ventures is — a European seed/pre-seed deep-tech fund backing scientific breakthroughs applied to industrial systems01:31 | The founding team — Jo's nanoscience PhD + 18 years commercialising deep tech, Marc's finance → CVC → impact VC journey (and Jo's 37km Channel swim)03:52 | The complementary edge — technical rigor meets financial/commercial structuring, evidenced through 45 investments and a 2.3× MOIC track record05:22 | The industrial innovation gap — 75% of emissions come from industry, yet only ~25% of climate VC targets it (because the systems are hard, complex, and interconnected)06:11 | Why industry is ripe for deep-tech disruption — 20th-century inefficiencies, high value pools, and the need for performance + cost + decarb together10:17 | “Deep tech works for venture—if you know where to look” — how to identify capex-efficient, scalable industrial technologies vs. science projects that need different capital12:25 | Case study: Hot Green — a new compressor architecture enabling industrial heat pumps for 200–400°C processes (F&B, manufacturing) with electrification upside13:49 | Case study: ReClinker — Cambridge spinout recycling cement inside steel arc furnaces, piggybacking heat, removing the CO₂-heavy chemistry step15:19 | Do you need to be an operator to invest in deep tech? — why complementary experience (science + venture + corporate + some ops) beats any single “must-have”18:35 | Investment strategy — first-check investor at TRL 4–7, pan-Europe, €300k–€1M tickets, aiming for a 25–30 company portfolio with follow-on capacity

Industrial operations have spent decades optimizing for safety, reliability, and uptime. Control systems, sensors, and field equipment were designed to be stable and predictable, often isolated from the outside world. Cybersecurity, by contrast, evolved largely in IT environments, on a separate track, with different tools, assumptions, and incentives. That separation is no longer holding. Operational technology is becoming more connected, more digital, and more automated. Sensors stream data to the cloud, vendors require remote access, and AI-driven tools increasingly influence operational decisions. At the same time, cyber threats are moving faster, targeting physical systems with the potential for real-world safety and production impacts. One response is data meshing: combining traditional cyber telemetry with operational data such as vibration, maintenance history, and asset performance to create a richer, more reliable picture of what is really happening inside industrial environments. When these signals are viewed together, anomalies surface faster, false positives drop, and attacks become harder to hide. In this episode, I'm speaking with Ian Bramson, VP of Global Industrial Cybersecurity at Black & Veatch, and Keon McEwen, Head of Solutions Development for Industrial Cybersecurity. We discuss why the old idea of the air gap is fading, how safety and cybersecurity are converging, what data meshing really means in practice, and why points of operational change are the right moment to rethink cyber risk.
