Manufacturing companies can integrate all the connected resources of a process and their various business applications – enterprise resource planning (ERP), manufacturing execution system (MES), product lifecycle management (PLM), and warehouse management system (WMS). They can also connect their assets, supply chain partners, and even customers through networks and the cloud.

In order to achieve digital manufacturing through Industry 4.0, it is critical to aggregate and manage the huge amount of data generated in the factory by Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) sensors and devices. Having connected machines, workers and systems is just the start of the digital transformation journey. To extract real value from this connectivity, a digital twin of machines and processes have to be modeled in a standardized manner which will help aggregate heterogeneous data and provide valuable insights to drive productivity and efficiency. The interoperability and flexibility of different assets is an important challenge due to the volume and variety of data that needs to be modeled. This paper will go over Industry 4.0 compliant data modeling principles using the MongoDB Smart Factory testbed as an example. We will model the data using MongoDB Atlas in a way that fulfills requirements and needs of Industry 4.0: interoperability, flexibility and scalability.

Printed circuit assemblers need an IoT ecosystem, the cornerstone of Industry 4.0. One of the key advantages of an IoT ecosystem is that it can take siloed information, analyze it, and optimize processes across a company’s systems. Aligning IT and OT is key to the Industry 4.0 transformation and to improving manufacturing processes and leads to higher production performance and lower costs. However, it requires effective governance and tools to adapt IT project management models for use in operations.
