The fourth industrial revolution is upon us

Algorithms, robotics, and the Internet of Things are set to transform the world of manufacturing, affecting almost every individual and business on the planet. The new connected world can propel companies to new levels of efficiency, agility, and productivity, but harnessing and protecting their data will be key.

      

What is a ‘Smart Factory’?

A Smart Factory can integrate data across a broad range of physical, operational, and human assets, self-optimising performance to drive down costs and enhance productivity.
