What You’ll Learn

In this discussion, you’ll discover:
  • How smart manufacturers are aligning AI and analytics projects with business goals
  • Common manufacturing challenges that hinder adoption—and how to overcome them
  • What the latest research reveals about the state of predictive analytics in manufacturing
  • How companies like Höganäs are applying manufacturing data to drive measurable gains
  • Best practices for preparing people, processes, and platforms for scalable success
How GE Vernova Helped Höganäs Use Manufacturing Data to Improve Yield

During the webinar, Nasser Ahmad, Director of Digitalization at Höganäs, shared how their team leveraged GE Vernova’s Proficy Industrial Software & Services to drive a data-first approach to quality and yield optimization in their powder metal manufacturing process.

With support from Proficy Historian and Proficy CSense, Höganäs:
  • Connected time-series and batch data across systems
  • Pulled together over 135,000 data points per batch
  • Applied advanced analytics to identify process variables that impact product quality
  • Uncovered a potential 1–2% yield improvement—with meaningful implications for cost, carbon emissions, and plant safety
While their solution remains on-premises currently due to security considerations, the Höganäs team is also evaluating future cloud strategies and ways to further scale analytics.

Their story highlights how combining the right manufacturing analytics tools with deep process knowledge can unlock new levels of visibility and control—even in complex, high-volume environments.
