Industry 4.0 is an initiative of the Federal German Government in cooperation with Industry, which
is striving to secure Germany´s top position by empowering it with respect to digital tools and methods.
A major goal is the Smart Factory, which is characterized by changeability, resource efficiency,
ergonomic design as well as integration of business partners in the processes.
The term was introduced in 2011 during the Hanover Trade Show. In October 2012 the Federal
German Government introduced recommendations concerning Industry 4.0.
To bring it to the point:
Use of networked systems of all kinds within and between factories as well as towards customers
and suppliers (Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS))
The connected mode (Internet of Things, Internet of Everything) allows for the accumulation of data
on a large scale and for the extraction of certain patterns (Big Data), also for new business models.
Industry 4.0

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS)
are main elements of Industry 4.0. (= Mechatronic systems, which communicate via a
data infrastructure, for example the Internet) - Internet of Things (IoT).
CP(P)S dominate future production and logistics scenarios as
…intelligent products and
…intelligent production equipment.
CP(P)S in production connect themselves ad-hoc and thus allow for
…decentralized, highly reactive control systems,
…the increased use of decentralized intelligence,
…situation dependent control structures as well as
…an effective integration of people in production.
CPPS interact with intelligent CPS-products; CPS as a device in production
Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS)

Artificial Neural Networks and Evolutionary Algorithms to Minimize Welding Distortions
28
Laser Welding induces deformations of the workpiece, which are hard to predict and to control.
Finite-Element-Simulation is possible, but very time-consuming.
The accuracy of the workpiece depends on a multitude of parameters.

• Implementation of education and training

• Technology transfer
• Contributions to technical standards
• Less talking / more action
Support for Industry
© iwb – Institute for Machine Tools and Industrial Management
Recommendations and Summary
Industry 4.0 stands for the vision of a fully
interconnected production system.
Objectives are (among others):
Increased flexibility (lot size 1)
Increased productivity
Reduced time to market
Industry 4.0 is not a job killer, it is a job creator,
because it does improve the competitiveness of
enterprises, which use it wisely.
Industry 4.0 is not a revolution. Everyone still has the
chance to come aboard.
Everything has to be developed and earned. There is
very little that can be purchased off the shelf.
