WHAT DOES INDUSTRY 4.0 MEAN?
The twentieth century was characterized by the revolution of automation, especially in electronics and information technology, but now we are living the real industrial revolution, the fourth one.
This is the digital revolution that defines Industry 4.0.
The key points that identify this epochal change concern are:
1. Using data as a tool to create value, because they represent the power of computing machines2. Analytics. Once you collect data, how can you actually make it fruitful?3. Man-machine interaction. How do we communicate with machines, tools, interfaces, languages?4. The gap between digital and industrial manufacturing. Once the data is obtained, analyzed and processed, it becomes a tool to "educate" the machines.
TECHNOLOGIES
BENEFITS
The enabling technologies that conventionally characterize industry 4.0 are:
• Advanced Robotics: Interconnected, quickly programmable and artificial intelligence machines• Additive manufacturing: 3D printing, digital manufacturing• Increased Reality: Wearable devices that allow to experience a different reality • Horizontal / vertical integration: all the value chain steps, from manufacturer to consumer, communicate among themselves• Simulation: Possibility to simulate new processes related to production activity before putting them into practice • Industrial Internet or Internet of things applied to industry: recognizable and intelligent objects able to communi-cate data about themselves• Cloud: Handle large amounts of data directly on the network• Cyber-Security: security assurance for network operations and cloud systems• Big Data and Analytics: Analyzing a large database of real time production of useful information to optimize products and production processes
These new technologies lead to a specific need. To change the job setting of manufacturing companies.This goes from the old traditional factory concept to the Smart factory, which works through interconnection processes and optimized production systems, increasing revenue by minimizing waste. All in real time.
The benefits that come from the industrial transformation are the following:
• More flexibility through the production of small batches at large scale costs• Increased speed from prototype to serial production through innovative technologies• Increased productivity through lower set-up times, reduced errors and machine shutdowns• Better quality and less waste through sensors that monitor real time production• Increased Product Competitiveness due to increased functionality from the Internet of Things

MES - MANUFACTURING EXECUTION SYSTEMS
Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) are software that fill the gap between ERP and Scada / PLCs and collect-strategic information. This kind of product helps management to understand how current production plant condi-tions can be optimized to improve production itself.MES systems can work on multiple fronts too: order advancement, APS (Advanced Planning System), real time monitoring, etc..
• Traceability of the product in real time• Reduced costs caused by unforeseen events• Real time analysis of production• Paperless process management• Simplified communications between different business levels• Support for process improvement
• Production planning• Data collection• Operational control• Logistics and warehouses• Traceability and Product Identification Management• Quality Control• Dashboards, performance monitor and visual factory• Optimized tools• Simplified integration
Do all MES systems integrate with machines?
WHAT DOES t.fabrica DO?
BENEFITS
It depends on MES providers, that can offer more or less advanced systems.
t.fabrica is the Techsol MES / MOM platform that includes all the features needed to control, plan and monitor production activities. It provides the company with contextual information in dashboards, reports, monitors, alarms, and real time notifications to respond proactively to production issues.
