Industry 4.0, the fourth industrial revolution currently being happened. Let's take a look at the technical form of industrial 1.0 to 3.0.

Industry 1.0, 18th century - mechanization and steam machine have changed the traditional manual manufacturing method;

Industrial 2.0, 19th century advanced - pipeline and electrification have greatly improved production efficiency;

Industry 3.0 in the late 1960s - automation, computer and robot, etc., information technology, etc., is integrated into the production and manufacturing;

Industrial 4.0 is the fourth industrial revolution dominated by intelligent manufacturing, and the factory integrates production equipment, wireless signal connection, and sensors into an ecosystem platform. This ecosystem can supervise the entire production line process and perform decisions independently. The system utilizes information physics systems, Internet of Things, Industrial Internet of Things, cloud computing, cognitive computing, and artificial intelligence.

What kind of "world" will be made to realize industrial 4.0?

(1) Industry 4.0 - Intelligent production!

As mentioned above, the production equipment and management information systems are also connected, and the equipment and information systems are also connected. What does it seem to have something shortcoming here? That's right, it is produced raw materials and production equipment that have not been connected yet.

At this time, we need a thing, called RFID, RF identification technology. Simply, it is equivalent to a QR code, which can bring some information, which is powerful than the two-dimensional code lies in it.

For example, in the production workshop of Pepsi, there are three jars on the production line, and each bottle comes with a QR code, which records this is a cola for Zhang San, Li Si and Wang 5.

When the first bottle went to the filling, the controller of the Chinese control room was told through the QR code of wireless communication, saying that Zhang Sanxi is sweet, put more sugar, then the controller tells the filling machine, "plus 2 Ki white sugar! ".

The second bottle came over, saying that Li Si is diabetes, do not sugar, the controller tells the machine, "This goods don't sugar!"

The third bottle came over, saying that Wang Hemp is Fanta, and the controller tells the robot "you will take a break", then tell the font of the robot, "You!"

I saw, multi-variety, small batch, custom production, every can of You can be customized to you, he is customized for you, all of his characteristics are in line with your preference. This is intelligent production.
