Predictive maintenance is essential for Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) manufacturers striving to minimize downtime and maintain quality. This session explores how Boston Dynamics’ Spot—a mobile, autonomous robot—is helping CPG facilities adopt smarter, data-driven maintenance strategies. Spot automates routine inspections by navigating factory floors to collect consistent thermal, acoustic, vibration, and visual data from assets like conveyors and packaging lines. With onboard sensors, Spot detects early signs of equipment failure that might be missed during manual rounds. Collected data is visualized in Boston Dynamics’ Orbit™ platform, giving teams centralized visibility into asset health and performance trends. Orbit helps maintenance teams act on insights faster, reducing downtime and improving planning. Attendees will hear real-world examples of Spot in CPG environments, showing how it reduces manual inspection hours, improves uptime, and delivers measurable ROI. Learn how mobile robotics is transforming maintenance from reactive to predictive—keeping operations running efficiently and competitively.
