IoT
IoT (Internet of things) has grown from a consumer desire to connect all our smart devices together. In a
big industry such as manufacturing, this means establishing model-based engineering (MBE) standards
to connect machines and automation across a facility to a single digital platform or infrastructure aka IIoT
(industrial Internet of things).

»» IoT connects consumer devices together.

»» IIoT connects devices to advanced industrial applications.

RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0 5

IoT
IoT refers to the ever growing network of physical
objects that have a unique IP address (like your
phones and computers) and wireless hardware for
Internet connectivity. It also refers to the network
between these IoT connected devices, objects,
and systems. Sometimes, these objects or devices
communicate with other related devices and act on
the information they get from one another.
IoT Applications in Industry 4.0
In Industry 4.0, IoT devices are deployed to monitor
and control electronic, mechanical, and electrical
systems used in various types of industrial facilities
(smart factories, assembly lines, and manufacturing
facilities as example), as well as for building
automation systems. This is known as the Industrial
Internet of Things (IIoT).
IoT connects consumer devices together.
IIoT connects devices to advanced industrial applications.
RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0
IIoT
The concept of IIoT is the same as IoT, just
with a more niche focus. Instead of connecting
consumer devices, the interconnected sensors,
instrumentation, and other networked devices work
with advanced industrial computing applications
like manufacturing and energy management. In IIoT,
a network of sensors collect critical production data
and sends it to cloud software to parse through the
data and return valuable insights about the quality
and efficiency of manufacturing operations.
IIoT Applications in Industry 4.0
In Industry 4.0, industrial companies use IIoT
platforms (consisting of hardware and software) to
connect devices and equipment used for different
processes in their facilities. It is used for supply
chain management and optimization. By using IIoT
platforms companies gain strategic awareness in
the form of insight, control, and data visibility across
their entire supply chain. By leveraging this data in
real-time, companies can adjust to changing market
conditions and deliver products and services to
market more efficiently, more lucratively, and at a
higher rate of quality than competitors.

Smart Sensors
A smart sensor is a device that uses a transducer to collect a specific type of data from a physical environment
(outside or inside). It takes that information and uses computing resources that are built in to the sensor to
perform a predefined and programmed function on the specified type of data it is collecting. It then passes
that data on via a networked connection.

Smart Sensors Application In Industry 4.0

Smart sensors are synonymous with Industry 4.0. They monitor different industrial processes, collect data,
take measurements, and transmit data to cloud computing platforms for information analysis. Examples
of smart sensors include:

»» Level sensors: i.e. gas gauge to communicate the amount of fuel left in a vehicle.
»» Temperature sensors: i.e. thermostat to control the temperature of a building.
»» Pressure sensors: i.e. hydraulic brakes to control a vehicle’s stopping distance.
»» Infrared sensors: i.e. night vision technology to create visibility when there is no visible light.
»» Proximity sensors: i.e. LCD backlight dimming when a smartphone is raised to an ear.

Smart sensors collect data, take measurements, and send data to

central cloud computing platforms for information analysis.

RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0 7

 Types of Smart Sensors

Level sensors
Level sensors are used for real-time measurement
of containers, bins and tanks, feeding real-time
information to inventory management systems and
process control systems. They are used in everything
from waste management to irrigation to diesel fuel
gauging and more.

Temperature sensors
Temperature sensors are also very commonly used
in industrial settings. Perhaps the simplest example
is using temperature smart sensors to connect to
a piece of machinery or industrial equipment. It is
connected to and IIoT cloud computing platform
and can detect when the machine or equipment is
overheating and needs maintenance or to be shut
down.

Pressure sensors
Pressure sensors are used to monitor pipelines and
alert a centralized computing system to leaks or
irregularities that alert overseers that maintenance
and repair is needed.

Infrared sensors
Infrared smart sensors are equally multi-purpose
and are used across very different industries. They
are used in medicine to track biological functions
such as blood flow during surgery, they are used
in architecture, engineering, and construction
to monitor heat leaks in buildings and industrial
facilities. They are also used in wearables for health
and fitness.

Proximity sensors
Proximity sensors are used in retail to detect
customer location and track crowd flow. Different
retail outlets leverage this technology to ping the
smartphones of customers wandering around with
coupons for deals on products that may be in their
periphery.

RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0 8

Advanced Robotics
Advanced robotics are a combination of sophisticated programming and powerful hardware that make
use of smart sensor technology (including ultrasonic, touch, and light sensors) to interact with the real
world around it.

Advanced robotics are making an impact on manufacturing. As manufacturing processes increase in

complexity and scope thanks to digitization and the application of advanced computing technologies
such as artificial intelligence (AI) to more areas of product design, manufacturing, supply chain, and
retail. Applications of advanced robotics are being used with increasing frequency to help streamline and
simplify initiatives. This new more complicated operating environment demands an increasing amount of
automation.

and course correct when procedures and processes
change. Conventional robots in an industrial setting
do not have this type of adaptability.

In addition, use of advanced robots offer another

advantage over conventional robots in that they
are easier to set up and configure on an assembly
line from the beginning of their implementation.
Advanced robots can also take advantage of
simulation software to learn how to perform an
array of tasks. On the assembly line, manufacturers
improve quality, reliability, and precision by closing
skills gaps with technology.

Advanced robotics makes use of smart sensor technology to

meet the demands of the complex manufacturing environment for
automation.

Big Data Analytics
Big data analytics is the use of advanced computing technologies on huge data sets to discover valuable
correlations, patterns, trends, and preferences for companies to make better decisions. Through application
of it, manufacturers experience production efficiency, understand their real-time data with self-service
systems, predictive maintenance optimization, and production management automation.

Big Data Analytics Application in Industry 4.0

In Industry 4.0, big data analytics plays a role in a few areas including in smart factories, where sensor data
from production machinery is analyzed to predict when maintenance and repair operations will be needed.
Manufacturers use big data analytics in the same way as most other commercial entities except with a
narrower focus. They collect huge amounts of data from smart sensors through cloud computing and
IIoT platforms that allow them to uncover patterns that help them improve the efficiency of supply chain
management. Big data analytics can help discover hidden variables causing bottlenecks in production and
is crucial to real-time performance, supply chain optimization, price optimization, fault prediction, product
development, and smart factory design.

Big data analytics helps reveal hidden bottlenecks in production

for more efficient supply chain management.

RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0 11

Self-Service Systems
Adopting self-service analytics in engineering
can help consolidate large bulks of big data from
production plants. These systems break down real-
time data to detect patterns and faults and create
visual representation for key decision makers.
Predictive Maintenance
Big data analytics is synonymous with predictive
maintenance to drastically cut reaction time.
Engineers use big data analytics output generated
from the system to make decisions. With this
information, they prioritize changes and actions
to be taken to avoid unscheduled downtime or
equipment malfunction.
RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0
Production Management Automation
Big data analytics is used to automate production
management. This implies reducing the amount of
human input and action needed in a manufacturing
facility. It works by analyzing historical data
of a production process, coupling it with real-
time information of a production process, and
automating physical changes to equipment using
actuators and advanced robotics that are connected
to control software.

3D Printing
3D printing refers to the manufacturing of objects by computer controlled robots that deposit layers of
material to form an object from a computer-aided design (CAD).

The ROI of industrial 3D printing systems are self-evident for those who manufacture products with a high
degree of customization. The demand for low volume batches of customized prototypes, tools, molds,
and workholding solutions (fixtures and jigs) with unique and complicated geometry is increasing in global
industries. The two options for industrial manufacturers to fulfill their 3D printing needs are:

1. Use a 3D printing service provider

2. Buy an in-house 3D printing system

RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0 13

3D Printing Applications in
Industry 4.0
In Industry 4.0, powerful 3D software known as
generative design is used by companies in aerospace
and automotive industries to redesign products with
less material and more complex geometry to improve
efficiency. These 3D models partially generated by
generative design software (which uses elements
of AI) have geometry of such a complicated nature
that they cannot be manufactured using traditional
methods of manufacturing.

3D printing systems are heavily adopted in the pre-

production phase of manufacturing. This allows
manufacturers to mitigate risk for production tooling
without jeopardizing the design change. In addition,
such technology is applicable for in-machinery
usages. Low volume, highly customized products
are considered as the sweet spot in 3D printing.

Product scalability will began to shift as 3D printing

enables digital transformation and product
innovation. With flexibility, 3D printing can facilitate
knowledge sharing across the supply chain and
between companies of different areas of expertise.
This will enable collaborative manufacturing with
production capacities.

3D printing streamlines production of low volume, highly

customized products.

Augmented Reality
Augmented reality (AR) is a technology that works by overlaying digital objects and information on a screen
(either a tablet, phone or headset) that is capturing the physical environment in real-time. In enterprise and
the industrial settings, augmented reality (AR) is used to train new workers on assembly lines in factories
and to train industrial workers to perform maintenance and repair operations for different industrial
products.

AR applications in Industry 4.0

In Industry 4.0, augmented reality is transforming the product design lifecycle. Designers and engineers
can build a product with detailed real world specs. Whether it’s a piece of equipment with a designated
footprint in a manufacturing facility or a product that is meant to fit in a specific sized shipping container,
virtual prototype testing is possible with AR.

Augmented reality enhances industrial training in assembly,

maintenance, and repair.

RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0 15

 AR and Industrial Manufacturing
Applications in industrial manufacturing substitute
digital instructions for traditional paper manuals.
There are AR headsets that overlay digital instructions
on top of a work area which removes the need for
operators to toggle between viewing machinery and
instructions.

AR and Quality Control

Applications in quality control allow factories to verify
component placement in assembly by validating
the work instruction well in advance. AR makes the
verification process much faster than traditional
methods.

AR and Aviation
Applications in aviation include virtually examining a
running engine in motion during the product design
and development phase. Aside from design and
manufacturing activities for planes, AR is being used
as a source of passenger entertainment.

AR and Logistics
Applications in logistics increase operational
efficiency in the areas of warehousing, routing,
and transporting goods. AR glasses can be worn by
warehouse employees to identify the shortest path
to locate and select items needed for shipments.

Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is the use of hardware and software to deliver a service over a network which is usually
the Internet. Smartphones are an example of advanced computing hardware with many cloud computing
applications. Email service providers are examples of using cloud computing for message storage.

Cloud computing applications streamline certain managerial and operational processes. For example, cloud
computing applications centralize data storage, bandwidth, and processing which means that individual
users don’t have to personally install applications on their laptops or workstations. Users simply access
them from the cloud. There is also a real-time exchange of information in cloud applications.

A top concern for businesses is that the cloud presents greater security risks because a third party control
the server where the data is stored. In contrast to this belief, the cloud comes with its own set of security
advantages such as triggering on-going updates which improves infrastructure security. Although different,
cloud computing mitigates risk in a different way than local hosting and provide several operational benefits.
It reduces the expense of employing someone to manage a local server, improves scalability, and enhances
reliability. Information stored through cloud computing is rarely lost.

RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0 17

Cloud Computing
Application in Industry 4.0
In Industry 4.0, companies with collaborative
supply chains benefit from using the cloud in
several ways. The real-time visibility of centralized
information by multiple parties along the supply
chain allows management to take a more proactive
approach. If conditions change or a problem arises,
organizations can nimbly react to ensure and tweak
efficiencies while reducing risk of reoccurring issues.
Cloud computing is vital to every other technology
in Industry 4.0. The other technologies managed by
cloud computing infrastructure differ dependent on
industry.

Cloud computing enables efficient supply chain

communication and presents opportunity to unlock
the full potential of disruptive technologies. On an
industry-wide scale, it is important for companies to
adopt cloud computing as it is the foundation for all
Industry 4.0 driven innovation.

Cloud computing has an 85% adoption rate and is the foundation

for all Industry 4.0 driven innovation.

Location Tracking
Location tracking refers to advanced computing technologies that locate, track, and record the movement
of people and objects. Companies in the personal data industry use the GPS tracker built in smartphones
to cross reference it with purchases users make or activities they take part in. These companies build
individual data profiles and use collected information to deliver targeted messages.

Location tracking allows manufacturers to improve machinery utilization, monitor the efficiencies of
production, and provide work environment safety. Location tracking technologies promotes better product
traceability for digital engineering. Manufacturing management can streamline inventory tracking, improve
manufacturing processes, and standardize production output to create a top performing supply chain with
this such technology.

Location tracking allows manufacturers to improve machinery

utilization, monitor the efficiencies of production, and provide work
environment safety.

RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0 19

Location Tracking
Applications in Industry 4.0
In Industry 4.0, location tracking technology such as
GPS is used to keep track of industrial assets such as
mining or construction equipment in architecture,
engineering, and construction. Location tracking
creates manufacturing efficiencies and promotes
worker safety.

As part of the larger Industry 4.0 ecosystem. Location

tracking keeps tabs on important industrial assets.
Indoor positioning technology allows location
information to be fed into asset tracking workflows
to monitor equipment and personnel that are either
outdoors, at construction sites, or inside a smart
factory. Location tracking allows decision makers
to improve workflow, keep track of inventory,
and standardize production and manufacturing
processes.

Real-time location systems (RTLS)

In smart factories, a key Industry 4.0 location tracking
technology is called real-time location systems
(RTLS).

RTLS are used in IoT trailer monitoring devices as well

as shipping container monitoring devices. These are
small hardware devices that can withstand all types
of conditions that a shipping container endures on its
many journeys. Some of these devices are powered
externally or have self-charging mechanisms. These
allow companies to track shipments in real-time to
collect valuable real-time data about their shipping
process, enabling them to make changes and adapt
when necessary.

Machine Learning
Machine learning (ML), a subset of artificial intelligence (AI), is the application of algorithms and statistical
models used in advanced computing to perform a specific task without programmed instructions.
ML applications rely on the inference and patterns of data collected from testing such as in design of
experiments (DoE) to perform specified tasks. Machine learning enhances manufacturing practices by
reducing expenses and increasing efficiency to bring high quality products to market faster.

Machine Learning Problem Detection

Applications in Industry 4.0 Machine learning detects malfunctions or failure

Engineers have been exploring the use of tools like
machine learning and computer vision to improve
the efficiency of Industry 4.0 technologies such as
IoT, big data analytics, predictive maintenance, and
others. ML has diverse applicable uses.
Parsing Data
Since machine learning models are extremely
good at parsing out useful data points from an
increasing sea of data streams, parties with a
vested interest in big data analytics are finding new
ways to incorporate it into Industry 4.0.Thousands
of individual points of data are collected from each
asset in smart factories and machine learning is
used as the brain of data analytics to sort through
and infer useful information for key decision
makers.
of equipment, which would slow or shut down
production. ML helps find patterns in the data and
give maintenance organizations within the smart
factory the chance to repair manufacturing assets
as soon as a problem is detected.
ML improves the quality of production by detecting
errors before they occur. Manufacturing companies
using smart factories can perform an automation
test based on machine learning to improve
mechanical engineering processes and ensure fully
optimized quality control.
Transfer of Learning
Machine learning can recognize patterns and apply
them to new situations in smart factories and
other areas of Industry 4.0 like with self-driving
vehicles. ML is used as the source of “brainpower”
for industrial vehicles to give them “people-
friendly” attributes similar to advanced robotics in
manufacturing assembly lines.

Machine learning is essential to global manufacturing in making

the transition to smart factories as Industry 4.0 evolves.

Predictive Maintenance
Predictive maintenance is a continuous or periodic monitoring and evaluation of the condition of industrial
equipment while it is in use. Predictive maintenance evaluates the condition of industrial equipment by
performing periodic or continuous (online) equipment condition monitoring. Data is received from an
array of smart sensors connected to the equipment and to a centralized or decentralized network of
hardware and software. The predictive maintenance system is designed to parse out data patterns from
interconnected sensor data and predict when maintenance should be scheduled. It is generally performed
while equipment is operating normally to minimize disruption of everyday operations in a factory, assembly
line, or other industrial settings.

Predictive maintenance drives rich, valuable data to drive

manufacturing improvements.

RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0 23

Predictive Maintenance
Applications in Industry 4.0
The main function of predictive maintenance for
Industry 4.0 is to prevent asset failure with far more
accuracy and far less downtime. Prior to predictive
maintenance, machine operators and factory
managers would schedule inspection, maintenance
and repair operations of machine parts on a regular
basis to prevent downtime without sensor-driven,
real-time data.
Adoption of predictive maintenance is advantageous
for manufacturers as it helps extend equipment
lifecycle by detecting mechanical irregularities of
machinery early on. Deployment of predictive
maintenance drives rich, valuable data to drive
manufacturing improvements.
RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0
Benefits of Predictive Maintenance
The benefits of predictive maintenance for
manufacturers include lowering maintenance
overhead, expanding the legacy equipment lifecycle,
and reducing downtime to improve production.
»» Predictive maintenance is performed on
machines and other equipment that are
running normally during the course of
production.
»» Preventative maintenance tasks are
completed when the machines and equipment
are shut down and not in operation.
»» Corrective maintenance is performed after
the fact, when a defect or problem is detected
in machines and other equipment and
corrected by maintenance technicians.
24
Quantum Computing
There are two types of computing: classical computing and quantum computing. The first type, classical
computing, sends information in binary bits. These bits carry a value of either 0 or 1. The second type,
quantum computing, sends information in quantum bits. These quantum bits are referred to as qubits.

There is opportunity for complex problem solving with quantum computing where traditional computing
systems lag because of silo task-doing capacity restrictions.

Qubits are analogous to classical binary bits but are primarily differentiated by their ability to be in a
superposition of both 0 and 1 states at the same time, whereas classical bits are either in a 0 state or a 1
state.

This doubling of efficiency per qubit compared to classical bits is why adding qubits to a quantum computer
increases its computing power exponentially versus adding classical bits to a classical computer, which
does not.

A good way to visualize the difference between the two is to imagine a sequence of instructions on an Excel
spreadsheet. To complete the task by following the set of instructions, a classical computer will complete
each one, one at a time, going down the list in sequence. A quantum computer will process the instructions
all at once. No sequencing, so it is much faster.

RGBSI © Copyright 2020. All Rights Reserved | Industry 4.0 25

Quantum Computing
Potential Applications in
Industry 4.0
To be clear, there are no applications of quantum
computing in use at this time in Industry 4.0. And
no quantum computer does anything that remotely
resembles practical work. But big tech is anticipating
a quantum computing age.

Quantum computing has the potential to enhance

value-driven conclusions from massive data sets. It
could assist machine learning (ML) by driving artificial
intelligence (AI) to process the unanalyzed data. This
could help industry segments make sense of it all
and aide more comprehensive decision making.
Integrating quantum computing with Industry 4.0
disrupting technologies can potentially enhance
competitive agility, speed up decision making,
mitigate product quality risks, and facilitate total
supply chain collaboration.
