To date, there have been four major technological trends over the past few hundred years that have revolutionized industry and manufacturing.
The first was the combination of mechanization with both steam and water power.
The second joined mass production and electricity.
The third was the rise of electronic and information technology (IT) systems, and with them automation.
We are now well into the fourth era of development, called Industry 4.0.
According to PwC's Insights, Industry 4.0 “refers to the fourth industrial revolution, which connects machines, people, and physical assets into an integrated digital ecosystem that seamlessly generates, analyzes and communicates data, and sometimes takes action based on that data without the need for human intervention.” We are at an age where every piece of equipment is becoming a 'smart' device -- capable of collecting data, producing information and reacting by making real time informed decisions. While this definition may sound complicated, Industry 4.0 is both more common and easier to implement than you might think. Join TMAC, in partnership with Olympus Controls Corp., an automation solutions provider, for this hands on overview on Industry 4.0.
Key Points:
Brief Introduction to I4.0 technologies
Live I4.0 IIoT demonstrations (e.g. wireless sensors, machine vision, SCADA)
Tie I4.0 efforts to business cases/outcomes -- what is the value proposition?
I4.0 includes investing in talent/training/technology
I4.0 Development Cycle: Start small (innovate) -> fail fast (prove) -> win (deploy & grow)
Who Should Attend:
Operations managers, production engineers, C-Suite level executives
