WHAT IS INDUSTRY 4.0?
• Synonymous with smart manufacturing,
Industry 4.0 is the realization of the digital
transformation of the field, delivering real-time
decision making, enhanced productivity,
flexibility and agility

WHAT ARE THE MAIN PILLARS OF INDUSTRY 4.0 ?
Technology
• Robotics deals with the design,
construction, operation and
its Replacing humans on assembly

• 3D Printing is any of various
processes in which material is
joined or solidified under computer
control to create a three-
dimensional object, the

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
Process
• Constant communication –
Data exchange between
components
• Decentralized decision
making any process where
the decision-making authority
is
distributed throughout a
larger group
• Standardization – Ease of
customization
• Smart Transport System -
Automated transportation of
raw material for final
products
People
• Increased efficiency –
Reduction in labor per
unit
• Skill Development –
Up-skilling, Re-skilling,
Continuous learning &
Mindset change
• Only to handle
disruptions –
Monitoring and
corrective actions

AI and machine learning
• AI and machine learning allow
manufacturing companies to take
full advantage of the volume of
information generated not just on
the factory floor, but across their
business units, and even from
partners and third-party sources.
AI and machine learning can
create insights providing
visibility, predictability and
automation of operations and
business processes. For instance:
Industrial machines are prone to
breaking down during the
production process. Using data
collected from these assets can
help businesses perform
predictive maintenance based on
machine learning algorithms,
resulting in more uptime and
higher efficiency.
