Industrial IOT and Cyber Physical Systems
Traditionally, manufacturing has been considered as a process that convert raw materials into physical products in the factories by managing resources with best automation practices available.
Collaborative Robots
Until now, industrial robots always worked separately from humans in specially safeguarded protected spaces. Smart manufacturing has broken down this barrier with a new generation of collaborative industrial robots.
Smart Sensors, Actuators and Controllers
Networked production and control processes in complex machine environments determine the industrial future and make Industry 4.0 possible in the first place. Smart Sensors already today support dynamic, real-time-optimized, and self-organized industry processes.
Rapid Prototyping and Tooling
A key component in making Industry 4.0 a reality are machines that can produce the desired components faster, more flexibly and more precisely than ever before. Also Consumers want products that reflect their individuality.
Augmented Reality
Advance Simulation and Digital Twin
Analytics and Manufacturing Operations Management
Remote Maintenance
Before the advent of Industry 4.0, the service technicians used to drive to customers to maintain or repair machinery and equipment while often following a route that is dependent on a defined preventive maintenance schedule.
Wireless Instrumentation
Wireless products have fundamentally changed our lives – and they are also playing an increasingly important role in the industrial environment. Here too, the enormous potential of wireless technology opens up totally new perspectives.
Industrial Safety
The world of automation is merging with the IT world. Safety & security is an important prerequisite for the function of Industry 4.0 systems, which in contrast to traditional production plants have interfaces to their environment.
Cyber Security and Mobility
The ongoing development of the automation landscape with Industry 4.0 means that companies are faced with new security challenges. Smart Manufacturing involves tremendous amounts of data, demanding a significant IT commitment to securely manage it all.
