This new revolution aims at creating smart factories that will be able to adapt more easily to manufacturing needs and processes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><i>Industry 4.0 = <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ibm.com\/thought-leadership\/institute-business-value\/report\/manufacturing-4-0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">t<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">he transformation of industrial manufacturing and production systems by introducing new technologies.<\/span><\/a><\/i><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Until now, industrial processes required extensive planning and also entailed significant delays or losses when production had to be halted due to a breakdown. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In an Industry 4.0 environment, <strong>technology boosts agility and responsiveness<\/strong>. The use of sensors in machinery, for instance, can warn of any anomalies that could be taking place. These can then be fixed quickly, avoiding downtime and having to slow down production.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This above is just an example, as Industry 4.0 has plenty more capabilities in store.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"technologies\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Industry 4.0 technologies<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s have a look now at <strong>which technologies make Industry 4.0 possible<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Internet of Things (IoT)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Internet of Things (IoT) is the term that stands for <strong>getting devices connected to the internet<\/strong>, as well as having them be able to communicate with each other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sensors in machinery, robots, and self-driving vehicles <strong>generate a constant flow of information<\/strong> that may very well help in adjusting production, anticipating possible breakdowns or detecting points where the manufacturing process can improve.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cyber-physical systems<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Broadly speaking, cyber-physical systems (CPS) are <strong>machines controlled by computers and algorithms<\/strong>. These devices are monitored by computers, who are in control of the physical processes involved. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the real key to this technology resides in its <strong>feedback<\/strong>, which is used by the system to interpret actions, track results, and automatically learn to improve efficiency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although these systems may seem somewhat complex, it\u2019s easier to understand them through some examples. <strong>Self-driving cars<\/strong>, home automation systems, or civil infrastructure and road monitoring systems are all manifestations of this technology.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u270f\ufe0f Recommended article | <a href=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/blog\/what-is-finance-function-4-0-help-cfo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>What is the Financial Function 4.0 and how it can help the CFO of a company <\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Big Data and Data Analytics<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Big Data is all about<strong> collecting huge volumes of data from traditional and digital sources<\/strong>.
