Industry 4.0 is not the future, it is here and yielding benefits by those that adopt its concept. The cable factory is now starting to adopt the principles of Industry 4.0. You may think of it as a revolution, or an evolution of automated systems of the past. Smart assets are here, and they are becoming smarter. Smart is not just about doing things better, but doing things differently. If you continue to do the same things, you will inevitably get the same results. Our focus for wire China on 26-29th September 2018 at the Shanghai New International Expo Center (SNIEC) is on The Smart Factory and Industry 4.0.


Ali Shehab, CEO, Cimteq says, “There is tremendous confusion around Industry 4.0, the Smart Factory and the Internet of Things (IoT). When people think of Industry 4.0, they think of technology, but when they hear the word Smart, they think of intelligence. The two concepts go hand in hand. Smart is the act of applying an intelligent solution to solve a problem and Industry 4.0 is the collection of technologies to enable this function.


Another error that people make is equating the Internet of Things (IoT) to Industry 4.0. IoT is only one of the new and evolved technologies which we collectively call Industry 4.0.


Using Smart assets in your factory does not make the factory a Smart Factory, in the same way that a person using a Smart phone does not make the person smart. A Smart Factory must exhibit the characteristics of communication, adaptability, continuous improvement and collaboration.”
