New technological innovations
Virtual Reality (VR) displays a clear simulation of the world that provides a digital experience, while Artificial Intelligence (AI) recognizes and executes complex cases. A concrete example here is Google Translate’s scanning function that instantly translates scanned text or when you speak something through the microphone and it immediately displays in the app.
Within the tech industry, there is also a strong increase in devices with an IP address. Data quantity such as smart cameras, sensors, voice recognition, that used to be almost never accessible, but also holds so much value.
In addition to these new technologies, there are many other things such as: the Cloud that gives access to the apps and data stored in a network via internet connection. A secure and transparent way to record and share data is Blockchain technology. Within the logistics sector, this is an essential component to make all supply chains traceable.
The benefits of manufacturing 4.0
Optimization of the production process: With the advent of industry 4.0 or Smart Industry, both factories and operators become a lot more autonomous and have a more flexible and better process. All parts of the production process communicate better with each other and are replaced with new ones to obtain an optimized production process.
More efficient analyses: Smart Industry allows factories to save a lot of time through new analytics. This ultimately leads to an increase in the production process and an increase in production growth.
Qualitative data: The collection of all this data can be perfectly applied to perform analysis. A lot of knowledge can be gained from this.
Live tracking: With the help of the live tracking of the production process, all goods to be produced can be followed uniquely and last-minute adjustments can be made if problems occur at suppliers or internally in the company.
Delivery reliability: Lead times are reduced and this ensures that reliability goes up. By providing customization to the customers, the high quality will be visible.
Changes within companies
Nowhere is the rotation of Industry 4.0 more palpable than in manufacturing companies. New technologies such as AI and Big Data are influencing increased automation within the manufacturing industry.
Not only are companies affected by this, but the customer experience is changing as well. People expect that with the advent of industry 4.0, communication between the company and the customer will be more interactive, making connectedness and personalized services a high priority.
