Beyond the Control Room: AI, Automation & The Future of Manufacturing

Episode 6: The Day the Plant Rewrote Itself — AI, Software-Defined Automation, and Self-Healing Systems

11 Sep 2025

Description

What if a factory could rewrite itself in real time?In this episode of Beyond the Control Room, we step into the world of Software Defined Automation (SDA) — where control logic, I/O assignments, HMI screens, and even operator dashboards adapt instantly to change.From spare I/O taking over failed channels to dynamic HMIs rebuilding on the fly, discover how SDA transforms plants into living, flexible systems.This is more than theory: virtual PLCs, real-time edge orchestration, secure code signing, and Ethernet backbones already exist today. The next step is convergence.It’s not about replacing humans — it’s about giving operators superpowers.Software Defined Automation, SDA in manufacturing, future of control systems, adaptive HMI, virtual PLC, edge orchestration, dynamic operator dashboards, I/O remapping, AI-driven automation, real-time plant reconfiguration, Industry 4.0 future, software-defined networks in industry, beyond the control room podcast, automation 2035 vision#SoftwareDefinedAutomation #IndustrialAutomation #SmartManufacturing #VirtualPLC #AdaptiveHMI #EdgeComputing #FutureOfAutomation #Industry40 #BeyondTheControlRoom #AIInManufacturing #DigitalTransformation
