Industry 4.0

Industry 4.0 embrace an assurance of innovative industrial revolution and it makes factories ‘SMART’.

The seamless interaction among technologies such as IIOT, simulation, analytics, Augmented Reality, Additive Manufacturing, cyber security, AI, Cyber physical systems that would capture, optimize, deploy data and as an impact benefit the industry in data collection, factories efficiency, real time decision making & reducing deployment cost/or optimizing the effectiveness of cost for business.

The industrial space is evolving rapidly and the growing Industrial IOT uses interconnected smart sensors & edge technology in industrial setting such manufacturing, energy, facilities management etc to help business run smoothly & utilize data to improve processes.

Industries like automotive, manufacturing and various sectors are adopting Industry 4.0 to make smart factories across the world.

New technological trends which have enabled this advent of automation and data exchange in manufacturing technologies include:

Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT),
Cloud computing,
Augmented reality (AR), and
Digital twin.

Internet of Things (IoT)

The Internet of Things (IoT) enables insights into product performance, usage and customer experience that were not previously possible. Real time access to usage data provides companies with feedback that improves their products at every level – from initial design and manufacture to delivery and service to end of life management and iterative design improvements. The ability to fully understand not only the performance but also how a product is consumed by the end user facilitates better quality in-life service and transforms a simple ‘thing’ that leaves the factory into a service and ongoing relationship with customers over the lifecycle of the product and beyond.

Augmented Reality

While Augmented Reality (AR) was popularised through the recent Pokemon Go phenomenon, the applications for industry are more far reaching. Computer models and simulation results can be visualised through AR during the design stage, allowing for virtual prototypes to be examined in the physical world. IoT data can be visualised on a working product providing insight into internal conditions without the need for monitors, gauges or dials and entire factories can be overlayed with data to provide real time information about performance, materials and stock levels and much more. Sales and marketing teams can even use AR to demonstrate products to potential buyers without physical stock and examine various configurations or variations of a product on the fly.
