Dear Reader,
Sensors are the ears and eyes of industrial operations. They track the heartbeat of processes and enable better decisions. In this issue of ABB Review, we present examples of ABB technologies detecting, analyzing and contextualizing many different kinds of information – ranging from objects floating at sea, to impurities in gas flows, to cyber threats. The insights gained enable better decisions, contributing to higher productivity while protecting equipment, humans and the environment.
2023 marks a very special anniversary for ABB. It was 140 years ago that the inventor, Jonas Wenström, got together with the financier, Ludvig Fredholm to form a company that later became known as ASEA – the “A” of today’s ABB. ASEA created numerous inventions and initiated activities that are still at the heart of ABB today. In this issue of ABB Review, we dedicate a section to this extraordinary journey of pioneering and entrepreneurship.
Enjoy your reading,
Björn Rosengren
Chief Executive Officer, ABB Group
