INDUSTRY 4.0

Сreate a digital model of the company’s current environment to understand the causes of the unfolding processes, predict scenarios of their development and plan the necessary changes.

What is Industry 4.0

Industry 4.0 implies automation of all production processes and stages, from the digital design of a product, joint work of engineers and designers in a single digital environment, automatic components ordering and control over their delivery, to tracking the finished product from a factory warehouse to the shop and end customer. After the product is sold, the manufacturer still maintains control over terms of its use, updates the software, warns the customer about possible breakdowns, and manages the disposal of the product.

Industry 4.0 principles:

  1. Interoperability: people, sensors, and machines interact with each other.
  2. Transparency: all processes are monitored; a digital copy of objects and actions are created in the virtual environment.
  3. Technical assistance: systems collect, analyze and visualize big data to ensure data-driven decision-making.
  4. Decentralization of decisions: systems can come up with decisions; employees monitor the actions of the systems and step in only in case of failures or conflicts with the intended goals.
