Share

Emerson delivers on AI promises. The company empowers manufacturers. They drive optimized autonomous operations. Emerson offers advanced industrial AI. These solutions work for online, mission-critical applications.
Emerson's Robust AI Portfolio
Emerson's extensive AI portfolio helps organizations. They implement AI solutions. These deliver consistent, sustainable value. The recent Aspen Technology acquisition supports this. Decades of domain expertise also back it.
Addressing Industrial AI Challenges
AI tools reached an inflection point. Open AI frameworks became more robust. Foundational models are now accessible. Companies see industrial AI as essential. It automates workflows. It eliminates complexity. It increases agility. Public GenAI, however, is unsecure. It is also unreliable. This makes it unsuitable for critical manufacturing.
Emerson's Secure AI Approach
Emerson tackles this challenge directly. Their AI portfolio features local models. These embed knowledge and guidance. They ground in first principles. Physics- and engineering-based models eliminate issues. They prevent impossible results. Unrealistic or unsafe outcomes are avoided. These tools fit their purpose. Customisable, industry-specific models provide trust. They offer interpretable results. Sensitive data stays secure. It avoids public cloud exposure.
Why Emerson's Industrial AI Shines
Ram Krishnan, Emerson COO, spoke. "Generic large language models are insufficient." Live, mission-critical plants cannot afford unsafe results. Emerson’s industrial AI leverages expertise. It builds on decades of first principles. It delivers correct, actionable guidance. Users can trust this information. They make better operational decisions. This drives competitive advantage safely and rapidly.
Automating Engineering Workflows
Emerson’s AI tools empower users. They provide powerful automated engineering workflows. Emerson’s AspenTech Optiplant® AI leverages GenAI. It quickly provides multiple design options. This works for greenfield and brownfield plants. Users input requirements. AI rapidly presents options. Engineers efficiently select layouts. These meet performance and non-functional needs. This includes buffer zones and safety.
Accelerating System Modernization
DeltaV™ Revamp uses AI. It accelerates legacy system transitions. It moves to modern DeltaV systems. This is a low-risk process. Data from thousands of projects informs it. AI tools analyze learned information. Each control system update improves the core database. This increases speed, accuracy, and agility.
Navigating Sustainability Pathways
AspenTech Strategic Planning for Sustainability Pathways™ uses GenAI. It navigates complex options and pathways. It helps companies develop decarbonization strategies.
AI-Driven Operational Guidance
Aspen Virtual Advisor (AVA) is an AI advisor. It builds into Emerson technologies. AVA provides expert operational guidance. It assists users across experience levels. They navigate sophisticated tools. These include design, planning, and scheduling. AVA leverages Aspen PIMS™ and Aspen DMC3™. Users ask natural language questions. They identify bottlenecks or achieve goals.
Simplified System Understanding
Other virtual advisors also help. They are in Emerson’s Ovation™ 4.0. They are also in Guardian™ Digital Platform. These tools visually translate complex issues. They simplify understanding of control systems.
Emerson: The Trusted AI Partner
Krishnan emphasized Emerson's position. “Emerson is the only company with vast domain expertise.” They have deep first principles models. They offer fit-for-purpose technology. They have a history of innovation. This delivers trusted industrial AI tools. Emerson’s expertise, data, and Boundless Automation vision position them. They advance AI solutions that deliver promises.
Project Beyond: The Future Platform
Emerson Exchange 2025 featured Project Beyond. This is the industry’s first platform. It is software-defined and OT-ready. It deploys and manages new AI applications. Project Beyond combines industrial AI. It contextualizes data across environments. This includes embedded, edge, and cloud. It unlocks flexibility, safety, and sustainability. Increased software-defined capability drives it. Hardware-based AI accelerators support it. Emerson’s AI portfolio and Project Beyond will revolutionize automation.
