Vorgehensmodell zur Einführung von Industrie 4.0*/A process model for implementing Industry 4.0 - Introduction of a process model for the individual implementation of Industry 4.0 methods

Abstract

Im Zuge der Einführung von Industrie 4.0 fühlen sich viele Unternehmen überfordert, zielgerichtete und bedarfsgerechte Einführungsstrategien zu entwickeln. Dieser Fachbeitrag stellt ein unternehmensindividuelles und problemorientiertes Vorgehen vor, bei dem ausgehend von einer Reifegradermittlung Potentiale ermittelt und mit Methoden der Industrie 4.0 gehoben werden. Diskutiert werden die iterativen Schritte für eine problemspezifische Auswahl und Anwendung von Industrie 4.0-Methoden.   Considering recent developments in terms of the industrial progression to “smart factories” and the fourth industrial revolution, companies are overwhelmed and seem to be incapable to develop appropriate implementation strategies. This paper focuses on an individual, problem-oriented approach in order to assess and implement Industry 4.0 methods based on a maturity model. Therefore, the iterative steps of an approach for achieving a problem-specific Industry 4.0 implementation are discussed.

A Maturity Level-Based Assessment Tool to Enhance the Implementation of Industry 4.0 in Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises

“…A number of 17 SME companies operating in different industrial sectors from Italy (10), Austria (3), Slovakia (1), and the USA (3) participated in the field study. The participating companies in the field study were mainly operating in industrial goods manufacturing (6), industrial supplies and materials (4), construction (3), food (2), and other industries (2).…”

“…Considering recent developments in terms of the industrial progression to smart factories and the fourth industrial revolution, companies are overwhelmed and seem to be incapable of developing appropriate implementation strategies [10]. Each company has to analyze its situation and its individual needs and then choose those Industry 4.0 concepts that promise the best prospects for achieving the goals set [11].…”

Vers une meilleure compréhension de la transformation numérique optimisée par l’IA et de ses implications pour les PME manufacturières au Canada - Une recherche qualitative exploratoire

“…La recherche sur l'industrie 4.0 -également appelée fabrication intelligente (Kang et al, 2016) -n'a rien perdu de son élan, ni chez les universitaires ni chez les praticiens (Kagermann et al, 2013;Thoben et al, 2017;Rojas et al, 2019). Cela peut s'expliquer en partie par le fait que la transformation réussie par la mise en oeuvre de technologies intelligentes demeure un défi de taille pour de nombreuses entreprises (Hübner et al, 2017), en particulier, comme le soulignent les recherches récentes, le passage à la fabrication intelligente pour les PME (Rauch et al, 2020). Par conséquent, les chercheurs ont tenté de développer des modèles d'évaluation de la maturité pour les PME (Rauch et al, 2020;Schumacher et al, 2016).…”

A Framework for Industry 4.0 Readiness and Maturity of Smart Manufacturing Enterprises: A Case Study

“…Managerial capabilities of industrial processes play an essential role in the enterprise strategy of I4.0 in terms of monitoring, control, optimization, and autonomy [12]. Companies are overwhelmed and seem incapable of designing effective execution plans given recent changes in the technological transition to smart factories and the I4.0 revolution [13]. I4.0 advances where the internet and nine I4.0 pillars serve as a backbone to integrate physical objects, human actors, intelligent machines, production lines, and processes across organizational boundaries to form [14].…”
