Right, if your factory is dependant on robotic wrenches for manufacturing, wouldn’t you have that backed up? You probably don’t only have one wrench with the code.
You’d be surprised how often critical tools don’t have backups.
More than once I’ve been to sites where the software needed to service a critical piece of equipment only existed on a single 15+ year old banged up laptop, or a 40+ year old PLC handling a critical part of a production line couldn’t be turned off because there was a risk that it wouldn’t be able to turn back on, and it was EOL’ed over a decade ago but they still hadn’t ported the program to a newer platform.
