Embracing Industry 4.0: The Future of Smart Manufacturing is Here
WEBINAR - Join us: Thursday, April 17th, 2025 from 1:00 to 1:30 (US/Eastern)
We’re standing in the middle of the Fourth Industrial Revolution—Industry 4.0—a transformation that’s redefining how products are made, moved, and managed. But many companies are still operating with Industry 3.0 systems: digitized, yes, but not yet intelligent, connected, or adaptive.
So, what makes Industry 4.0 different? And more importantly—where does your company stand in this transformation?
Automation to Intelligence: The Shift from Industry 3.0 to 4.0
Industry 3.0 introduced computers, electronics, and early automation into manufacturing. It marked the beginning of digital systems and the rise of Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) as a bridge between planning and the shop floor. Industry 4.0 takes it further: it brings interconnectivity, real-time data, and AI-powered intelligence into every corner of the industrial environment. It’s about smart factories, self-optimizing systems, and predictive capabilities that weren’t possible before.
8 Pillars of Industry 4.0:
1. Artificial Intelligence (AI)
2. Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES)
3. Smart Decision-Making
4. Predictive Maintenance
5. Process Optimization
6. Quality Control
7. Supply Chain Intelligence
8. Autonomous Robotics
Join Anthony Etzel and Crossroads RMC to learn how MES can unlock Industry 4.0: Transforming Manufacturing with Smart Technology - How MES bridges planning and the shop floor.
