GA-ASI Demonstrates Automatic Takeoff and Landing Enhancements

SAN DIEGO, June 26, 2020 — As part of the ongoing U.S. Air Force contract for MQ-9A Reaper modernization, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) demonstrated three expanded Automatic Takeoff and Landing Capability (ATLC) enhancements that provide the MQ-9A with a dramatic increase in operational flexibility. One enhancement enables the MQ-9A to land at an alternate or "divert" airfield in which no Ground Control Station (GCS) is present, and under satellite communication (SATCOM) control. The second enhancement expands the cross-wind limits of the MQ-9A. The third increases the maximum landing weight for normal and emergency landings.

"This achievement will enable operational MQ-9A’s to land at alternate airfields, on their own, in case of inclement weather, changing mission requirements, or damaged runways," said GA-ASI President David R. Alexander. "These upgrades will improve mission-effectiveness tremendously."

With the "divert landing" enhancement, the remote pilot can enter the new landing area coordinates to automatically land at the selected location, or the pilot can overfly and self-survey the divert airfield’s runway using the MQ-9A’s multispectral Electro-optical/Infrared (EO/IR) sensor to obtain coordinates for automatic landing. Once uploaded to the MQ-9A’s mission profile, the MQ-9A aircrew enables the ATLC system, which allows the aircraft to automatically maneuver itself into a landing pattern and make the automatic landing.

"All three enhancements provide MQ-9A aircrews with increased runway options, as well as expanded weather tolerances that greatly improve mission flexibility, operational availability and time on station. It will also lead to a substantial reduction in aircrew," said Alexander.

IIoT and 3D Printing Propel Growth for North American Industrial Valve Makers amid Volatile Market

Rising demand for digital technologies and need to upgrade existing refineries to offset COVID-19 impact on the sector, finds Frost & Sullivan

SANTA CLARA, Calif., June 26, 2020 — Frost & Sullivan’s recent research, Analysis of the North American Industrial Valves Market, Forecast to 2026, predicts that this market will reach $7.45 billion by 2026 because of the growing potential of digital technologies, namely the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and 3D printing, across industry verticals. Although the market is mature, rising demand for smart solutions and the need to upgrade existing systems to meet enhanced safety regulations will offer new opportunities for market participants.

IIoT and 3D Printing Propel Growth for North American Industrial Valve Makers amid Volatile Market
IIoT and 3D Printing Propel Growth for North American Industrial Valve Makers amid Volatile Market

For further information on this analysis, please visit: http://frost.ly/464

“Although prolonged geopolitical tensions and a bleak investment climate in North America have negatively impacted the sector, there are positive growth opportunities for the long term. These include the gradual integration of IIoT across asset-intensive industries and demand from end-user industries such as power generation to meet enhanced safety regulations,” said Riti Newa, Industrial Research Associate. “However, in the short term, the market will be subject to sharp revenue declines amid the ongoing pandemic. The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted all end users, especially the oil & gas industry, as evident from the unprecedented decline in its demand. As the financial crisis intensifies due to the pandemic, new investment opportunities will be relatively low in 2020.”

Newa added: “Market participants are responding to protracted market tensions and the gradual transition of end users to digital solutions by introducing new products such as smart valves, smart actuation and control products and automated fluid control systems to augment the use of IIoT. They are also shifting from a product-centric to a service-centric approach and are strengthening their service offerings to secure recurring revenue. Additive manufacturing is also expected to remain a key focus area for the industrial valves market due to the cost-effectiveness and flexibility of 3D printing. As requests from end users become more specific, solution providers will have to consider 3D printing to offer customized product lines.”

Given the already mature market, industrial valve manufacturers should focus their efforts on growth strategies that would enable diversified product lines while integrating digital technology in market offerings.

For further revenue opportunities, industrial valve manufacturers should:

  • Collaborate with digital solution providers and niche IoT companies to seamlessly integrate digital technologies into their product lines.
  • Adapt and modify their product lines by partnering with system integrators and IT solution providers for digitally connected valve solutions with holistic data analytics.
  • Invest in research and development (R&D) for smart software and data analytics platforms that can enable high-asset visibility and remote monitoring services for end users.
  • Partner with 3D printing companies to acquire in-house expertise and infrastructure for 3D printing.
  • Establish service lifecycle management and centers of excellence to ensure optimum client engagement with services provided.

Phoenix Contact, Quectel and Ericsson jointly develop the first industrial 5G router for private networks

SHANGHAI, June 26, 2020Phoenix Contact, Quectel and Ericsson have worked together to develop and deploy the first industrial 5G router for local industrial applications in a private 5G network.

With the help of the newly developed 5G Router, industrial applications, such as machines, controls and other equipment, can now be connected to a private 5G network and thus be orchestrated in their resource usage, priority and behavior. They therefore offer a decisive advantage compared to previous mobile radio solutions, which can only use all – mostly license-free – radio bands with a best effort principle and which have to accept performance losses in equal measure when the radio spectrum is heavily occupied.

To achieve this, all three companies brought their strengths together: Phoenix Contact as the first choice supplier of WLAN, Bluetooth and mobile radio routers for industrial applications, Quectel as the leading global supplier of cellular and GNSS modules and Ericsson supporting the product development as a network supplier and a leading force of the 5G technology development. By starting to interact at an early stage, the three companies have been able to rapidly develop a solution that provides industrial-grade performance over private 5G networks. The collaboration between Quectel, Phoenix Contact and Ericsson has seen extensive interoperability testing at the Ericsson lab to ensure the reliable commercial performance of the 5G router. The experience made is highly important for Ericsson following the strategic approach offering 5G solutions jointly with mobile network operators towards the industry. In addition, all three companies cooperated closely to enable Industry 4.0 applications with this 5G standalone private network. 

About Quectel

Quectel is the leading global supplier of cellular and GNSS modules, with a broad product portfolio covering 5G, LTE/LTE-A, NB-IoT/LTE-M, UMTS/HSPA(+), GSM/GPRS and GNSS. As a professional IoT technology developer and cellular module supplier, Quectel is able to provide one-stop services for IoT modules. Quectel products have been widely applied across IoT/M2M including for smart payment, telematics and transport, smart energy, smart cities, security, wireless gateways, industry, healthcare, agriculture and environment monitoring.

AuraPortal Announces Move Beyond RPA to Deliver Hyperautomation

A complimentary copy of the Gartner report “Move Beyond RPA to Deliver Hyperautomation” has been made available on AuraPortal’s website.

MIAMI, June 25, 2020 — According to Gartner, “Enterprise architecture and technology innovation leaders lack a defined strategy to scale automation with tactical and strategic goals. They must deliver end-to-end automation beyond RPA by combining complementary technologies to augment business processes. Gartner calls this ‘hyperautomation’.”

End-to-end automation is more essential than ever before, and enterprises worldwide are reprioritizing their digital strategies to rapidly adapt to the current environment. AuraPortal recognizes this pressing need and has made this complementary report available to help enterprise architecture and technology innovation leaders develop key strategies for enabling hyperautomation and plan strategic roadmaps by aligning business goals, identifying processes to optimize and choosing complementary technologies.

Combining technology could potentially lead to disparate software silos or seamless end-to-end automation and given that no single vendor specializes in all cutting-edge technologies, enterprises must carefully evaluate which technology combinations can power their automation strategies and achieve the desired business outcome.

In the report, Gartner explains about the following technologies:

1)  BPM Platforms

“Intelligent BPM suites (iBPMS) have a solid foundation of tools for orchestrating processes and automating tasks within those processes.”

2)  RPA

“RPA is a noninvasive integration technology used to automate routine, repetitive and predictable tasks through orchestrated UI interactions that emulate human actions.”

3) Low-code Application Platforms

“The graphical nature of LCAP development environments can be used for modeling rapid automation of a business process.”

4) Process mining and discovery/analytics

“Process mining is designed to discover, monitor and improve real processes by extracting knowledge from the event logs readily available in application systems.”

5) Decision management suites/ Business Rules Management Systems

“DMSs are used to supplement conventional application development and runtime tools when a business application includes decisions that entail complicated or frequently changing logic.”

6) AI

Examples of how to augment business processes with AI.
