Henry Ford’s visionary ideas and inventions well outlived him: the assembly line made its way from Industry 3.0 to Industry 4.0, where it became more “connected” and efficient.In this white paper, we explore how cutting-edge technologies such as machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), computer vision, and cognitive systems can be fine-tuned to support mass personalization and add a much-needed human touch to production (and beyond).

Since the first Industrial Revolution, the manufacturing process has been revolutionised from water and steam-powered machines to electrical and automated ones. The term "Industry 4.0" or simply I4 was introduced by the German government in 2011, which encourages the use of modern technology in the manufacturing process. It defines that automation technology can be improved by offering different methods of self-configuration, self-optimisation and self-diagnosis. The fourth era of revolution (Industry 4.0) is all about connectivity trends, advanced material, processing technology, service orientation and collaboration in advanced manufacturing networks. It presents a unique level of control and coordination over the whole value chain of the products. Internet of things (IoT) and machine to machine communication (M2M) are merged to improve communication and automation. It creates a new set of design principles for effective and computerised control of the manufacturing process which includes

Traceability, the ability to identify and trace the product, process, operator, context, and detailed quality and component supplier and lot information for every item that moved through manufacturing, is a must-have for manufacturing success. A robust traceability framework that envelopes the total process, product, and material traceability, is a critical component for manufacturers facing stringent regulations while seeking to reduce the overall cost of compliance.

Imagine the power of a process model that defines the pace of your production. Imagine process mining insights, which allow you to feel the pulse of actual process performance. Imagine a digital twin as a virtual representation of your manufacturing processes. Imagine a single software which - at the same time - enables a more collaborative approach, with all members of the workforce working towards performance improvement, reducing waste & defects. Now stop imagining... that reality is here.

Additive manufacturing (AM) has matured significantly as a manufacturing technique over the last 5 years. Along with this, knowledge of AM within companies has increased and its opportunities are increasingly discussed at board-level. Time and budget are invested to explore the potential for 3D printing beyond the most obvious applications. More than ever before, there’s an appetite to take a strategic approach and maximize the opportunity
