Four Areas Where the IIoT is Revolutionizing the Food and Beverage Industry

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is transforming the food and beverage industry by leveraging connected sensors and controllers for improved processing and decision-making. Four key areas benefiting from IIoT include preventing recalls by detecting issues in real-time, ensuring consistency and accuracy in product quality through centralized recipes and procedures, optimizing packaging efficiency by detecting errors promptly, and enhancing communication between personnel and equipment. Despite the potential, widespread adoption and understanding of IIoT capabilities in the food manufacturing industry are still in progress.
