This document discusses Industry 4.0 and the trends driving it. Industry 4.0 aims to create an interconnected digital society through technologies like cyber-physical systems and embedded systems. It connects customer, product and factory data to enable mass customization, greater customer focus and manufacturing efficiencies. Cyber-physical systems bridge data and the physical world by using data analytics and simulation to inform business decisions. Embedded systems progressively network intelligent components. Industry 4.0's vision is integrated manufacturing where customer demands can be met through data-driven production.
4. Manufacturing
Trends
Net shift of mass
manufacturing to
low cost centres
High Value
Manufacturing focus
in Western Europe
ONS attributes the
sustained growth to:
Better quality, more
skilled workforce; a shift
in production from low to
high productivity goods;
improvements in
automation and ICT;
5. Industry 4.0
The 4th Industrial Revolution
“the increasing digital connectivity of customer, product,
process and factory through the use of emerging and
disruptive technologies”
It’s Opportunity, which can realise Value
7. Why invest time and
resources in Industry
4.0?
Stimulation of manufacturing sector
in Europe & deliver Value using
technology
8. Industry 4.0 Structure
Vision: an interconnected digital society
Cyber-Physical: bridge between data and
the realisation of a product / service
Embedded systems: a progressive
networking of intelligent components
10. Vision
Progression to an integrated society with
“where it’s sold” manufacturing
Step by Step…
Embracing technology in the right
way to respond quickly to
market demands
Industry 4.0
12. Mass customisation
Vision
The ability to manufacture what the customer wants
directly, with no loss of productivity.
It combines the process benefits (low cost / unit) with the
flexibility of individual choice (value creation)
18. Fusing of Data and
Manufacturing
Large volumes of data need to be
transformed into knowledge in order for it
to be useful.

30. Industry 4.0
Drivers: Why?
Vision: an interconnected digital society
Cyber-Physical: bridge between data and
the realisation of a product / service
Embedded systems: a progressive
networking of intelligent components
Low cost centres – but for how long?
High Value manufacturing – sectors that combine growth and significant R&D for example Phara & Aerospace
Innovate UK spend profile
2nd revolution
A transition from ‘batch’ production of parts and assembly, through to the more recognisable Henry Ford images
Lots of data -> transform to knowledge -> manufacture
Cyber-Physical is the realtime and reactive space
Embedded systems – platform that provided the data
Lots of data -> transform to knowledge -> manufacture
Lots of data -> transform to knowledge -> manufacture
Not just what we request, what we want
Specialist operations will be automated
Short term large scale “standard” activities are outsourced
Long term, Automation of knowledge will bring skills back
Lots of data -> transform to knowledge -> manufacture
What do we do with our data today?
Pick & Mix of information
Example
Real-time movements of cars can be used to assess road conditions, bottlenecks, inform infrastructure projects etc
Dynamic and real time
Buying experience
How do factories work?
Request inventories from established supply chain
Assemble to add value
Sell through a distribution network to realise value through profit margin
Lots of data -> transform to knowledge -> manufacture
Enabler for instructions to be given from a high tech levels down to production level equipment
