Everyone talks about Industry 4.0, we deliver…
THE WORLD IS CHANGING
Water and steam power led to early mechanization. This was followed by assembly lines for mass production in the age of electricity. Then came transistors which enable computers and robotics. The future is all about smart and connected systems that let data flow more freely and enable new business models.

Cyber Physical Systems
Today, the manufacturing enterprise uses many proprietary standards, which constrain horizontal and vertical connectivity and lead to limited interoperability. Continuing with these information islands will endanger current businesses. New businesses are expected to disrupt this space and establish a new normal.
Today’s legacy information islands
The new normal
The new normal depends on flexible flow of data through the larger network of things in the manufacturing enterprise. This will be possible only if there is a globally open ecosystem based on a unified architecture that allows adaptive devices to enable new business models.
