Ushering the era of Industry 4.0
Increasingly the theme of discussion among the world thinkers and speakers , when they talk about Industrial revolution or Industries , in general is “Industry 4.0”. Coined by the German government , this term is increasingly being used by the European countries to bring back the manufacturng hubs to them , as In the past.
So Industry 4.0 has implications for the whole world.let me walk you through the basic questions that we have – the what , how and why of Industry 4.0
Agenda
In the succession of the industrial revolution over the years, Industrie 4.0 is the latest edition… The fundamental meaning that Industrie 4.0 stands for, is that by connecting machines, systems and workforces, we create an intelligent network, along the entire value chain , so that these may control each other autonomously.
The term Industrie 4.0 was first used in 2011 at the Hanover Fair.
How did this evolve?
So the 1st industrial revolution was in 1784 when the 1st mechanical loom was invented, followed by Industry 2.0 which saw the invention of the production assembly line. Industry 3.0 came about with the invention of PLCs in 1969.. Consequently reaching to this point where Industry 4.0 is rising with the advent of cyber physical systems.
Some of the major economic trends that Industry 4.0 fosters are:
10 to 25 percent potential improvement in labor efficiency and energy savings
A major source of value-- $360 billion in equipment maintenance.
The McKinsey Global Index shows that The adoption rate of IoT in manufacturing in 2025 can reach 65 to 90 percent in advanced economies and 50 to 70 percent in developing economies, giving it the potential to create value of $1.2 trillion to $3.7 trillion per year by 2025.
For manufacturers, IoT-based
Systems would not only improve performance at individual plants, but also
help optimize production across varied locations and situations. This in turn will build up scale and improve profitability.
For operations, Industry 4.0 would produce improved
efficiency, which would enable better product design and strengthen
customer relationships , also providing the basis for a more service-like approach to equipment sales.
For distributors, retailers, and other downstream players, IoT-enabled production and inventory systems could provide better pricing. They would have better data for their supply-chain management.
Operations optimization
Industry 4.0 can increase productivity by 10 to 25 percent by
Optimizing operations. They can make real-time adjustments to maintain an uninterrupted
flow of finished goods and avoid defects. In a Harley-Davidson
paint shop, ventilation fan speeds are automatically adjusted for varying conditions in order to give a consistent coat.
Predictive maintenance
With sensors and connectivity, it is possible to monitor
equipment in real time, improving both capacity utilization and factory productivity
by avoiding breakdowns. IoT can transform the maintenance model from repair and replace to predict and prevent. Air China is using sensors in exhaust systems to reduce maintenance spending by 10 to 40 percent for air carriers
Inventory optimization
Using detection sensors, it is possible to set
up condition-based automatic routines that are far better than current
rules-based systems.
Wurth USA, an auto parts supplier, has developed an “iBins” system that
uses intelligent camera technology to monitor the fill level of a supply box and wirelessly transmits the data to an inventory management system
The crucial 6 pillars of Industry 4.0 are:
IoT--
Industrial Internet of Things makes use of networked sensors and embedded computing and real time responsive systems. Bosch uses a production facility where workstations "know " the manufacturing steps based on the products RFID code
Analytics--
Advanced analytics is used for stable decision making based on highly varied data patterns. Infineon uses analytics to improve their production facility
Virtual Reality--
Workers might receive instructions to repair a particular part , as they are looking at the actual system itself, using virtual reality glasses
Cyber Physical Systems--
Industrial robot supplier ABB is launching a 2-armed robot YuMi that is specifically designed to work alongside humans
Big Data--
Exponential amount of data is generated in Industry 4.0 practice that ca be used for better analytics and decision making
Cyber Security--
Industry 4.0 practitioners need to ensure cyber security for critical work processes
Some of the barriers in implementing Industry 4.0 are:
Industry 3.0 saw more than 80 % replacement of installed production machinery, which is capital intensive .
The second barrier can be a reliable data network with sufficient capacity which is not present in developing economies
In today’s scenario , little or no decision making is done on the data available
And lastly , highly skilled labour is required to operate the sophisticated systems of digital factory.
But there are enablers of Industry 4.0 which turn the table round for progress.
Fortunately introducing IoT into the factory, in many cases will not require wholesale replacement of equipment
since many machines already in use have sensors .
To overcome the issue of reliable network speeds, nations are increasingly building on their telecom infrastructure.
There is an increase on the advanced analytics front with new technologies rising to deal with the huge amount of data
To overcome the issue of skilled workforce, advanced training In cyber physical systems needs to be undertaken
And one would be good –to-go for industry 4.0
The future of Industry 4.0 would be strong if its based on the pillars of innovative technologies , adequate infrastructure , a skilled and upgraded workforce , facilitated by high quality advanced education.
Industry 4.0 is still In its nascent stage , but once it reaches its full fruition, we will reap its benefits in the long term.
