How Industry 4.0 Technology Changes Manufacturing
Industry 4.0 is fundamentally changing the way companies manufacture, improve, and distribute products. Manufacturers are integrating new technologies including the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing and analytics, as well as artificial intelligence and machine learning into their production facilities and entire operational processes.
These intelligent factories are equipped with advanced sensors, embedded software, and robotics technology, which can collect and analyze data and make better decisions. When data from production operations is combined with operational data from ERP, supply chain, customer service, and other enterprise systems to create new visibility and insight from previously isolated information, higher value can be created.
Industry 4.0, a digital technology, can improve the self optimization of automation, Predictive maintenance, process improvement, and most importantly, improve efficiency and responsiveness to customers to an unprecedented level.
The development of intelligent factories provides a rare opportunity for the manufacturing industry to enter the fourth industrial revolution. Analyzing the large amount of Big data collected from sensors in the factory floor ensures real-time visibility of manufacturing assets and provides tools for performing Predictive maintenance to minimize equipment downtime.
The use of high-tech IoT devices in smart factories can improve productivity and quality. Replacing manual inspection of business models with AI driven visual insights can reduce manufacturing errors and save money and time. With minimal investment, quality control personnel can set up smartphones connected to the cloud to monitor manufacturing processes from almost anywhere. By applying machine learning algorithms, manufacturers can immediately detect errors, rather than in the later stages of more expensive maintenance work.
The concepts and technologies of Industry 4.0 can be applied to all types of industrial companies, including discrete and process manufacturing, as well as oil and gas, mining, and other industrial fields.
