The Main Drivers/Pillars of Industry 4.0
Technology
• Robotics deals with the design, construction, operation and its
Replacing humans on assembly line.
• 3D Printing is any of various processes in which material is joined
or solidified under computer control to create a three- dimensional
object, the manufacturing customized components
• Big Data – Collecting performance parameters, used to refer to
data sets that are too large or complex for traditional data-
processing application, analytics – Understanding collected data
People
• Increased efficiency – Reduction in labor per unit
• Skill Development – Up-skilling, Re-skilling, Continuous learning &
Mindset change
Process • Only to handle disruptions – Monitoring and corrective actions
