Industry 4.0 and the rise of the smart factory

Manufacturing is entering a period of radical change and transformation. Industry 4.0, which focuses on virtualization, decentralization, real-time capabilities, service orientation, and modularity, is the next phase of digitalization in manufacturing.

It’s a new approach that uses hyperconnected technologies to better understand operations and transform working with partners, suppliers and customers. It combines traditional production processes with innovative technologies such as IoT and AI to improve connectivity, communication, and automation.

At the heart of Industry 4.0 is the smart factory where machine intelligence, advanced networking, and real-time controls enable manufacturers to respond to disruptive trends, enter new markets, deliver better products, and get ahead of operational challenges such as equipment maintenance and factory downtime.

It’s time to think outside the factory

Manufacturing is being transformed by digital technologies and rising volumes of data, which the entire sector needs to think and act differently. A narrow focus on what happens inside the factory will slow digital transformation. It’s vital to think about the entire end-to-end ecosystem – from supply chains to customer outcomes. And it’s the customers who are driving change. It’s vital to respond quickly to their rapidly evolving needs.

Key factors in digital factory transformation:


Icon - Connectivity

Connectivity - processes, machines, and people are connected to improve efficiency.

Icon - Optimization

Optimization - high levels of automation to increase uptime and productivity..

Icon - Agility

Agility - configurable factory layouts and implementation of product changes in real-time.

Icon - Transparency

Transparency - visibility across all operations to allow real-time decision making.

Icon - Proactive

Proactive – automated re-stocking, fault detection, and safety monitoring.
