automated work stations, and assembly lines.
This is the essence of IIoT and smart manufacturing, and will also address the basic principles
of Industrie 4.0, where there is communication between intelligent products, machines,
and systems. Much of this communication will
be wireless and based on open standards. By
connecting machines to machines, people to
machines, and machines and people to more
expanded system of systems, manufacturers
can create intelligent networks and factory systems along the entire value chain. This will lead
to factory systems that communicate and control each other autonomously with significantly
reduced operator intervention.
Interessen for Industry 4.0 er fortsatt
svært stor
The concept of a system of systems is the
natural extension of systems engineering and
model-based design. The basic idea here is that
today’s factory and its production systems are
most efficient and productive when all of the
elements and processes that comprise manufacturing are connected through intelligent
networks. This would, of course, start with
automated production systems and all of the
sensors, controllers, and dev
