Applications of the Factory Design and Improvement Reference Activity Model

Abstract

Developed countries and global manufacturing enterprises are leading the way for developing smart manufacturing systems (SMS) to improve competitiveness and possibly make technological breakthroughs. SMS is based upon the integration of information and communication technology with manufacturing technology; and all the heterogeneous technologies must be seamlessly connected. However, there is a lack of guidance in what technologies should be deployed and how they may be used. This paper introduces a reference activity model and describes various ways in which it can be used as guidance for deploying smart manufacturing technology.

Industry 4.0: Evolution of the Research at the APMS Conference

“…Industry 4.0 is based on three pillars: Cyber-physical systems, Internet of Things and Internet of Services [4]. Smart factory is considered a key feature of Industry 4.0 [4,15], or the Industry 4.0 itself, also known as smart / cloud manufacturing [2,6].…”

“…A new industrial paradigm established on interconnectivity is already affecting industries, but in the near future, production will be able to exchange data directly with customers, supply chain, and other valuable stakeholders [1][2][3], in an integration never seen before. Based on high technology for automation, information and communication systems, machines and humans will be able to exchange data [4], opening new opportunities for the industries.…”

“…The objective was to create value, developing new business models, products and services, improving operational effectiveness and solving problems by the connection of the internal environment of the factory with the outside world [1,[4][5][6]. The initiative was followed by other countries that launched similar projects under other names, such as Produktion2013 in Sweden [7], Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC) initiative in USA [8,9], Fimecc in Finland [7,10], MADE in Denmark [7,11], Smart Industry from the Netherlands [7,12], Made in China 2025 in China [2,13] and Japan's Robot Strategy in Japan [2,14].…”

Gestão Da Manutenção Industrial Em Transição Para a Indústria 4.0: Controle Mobile, Considerações Sobre Esta Nova Tecnologia

“…A inovação não se dá apenas em produtos, mas também nos modelos produtivos. A denominada Quarta Revolução Industrial, ou Indústria 4.0, é identificada pela digitalização e integração entre produtos e processos produtivos, cadeia de suprimentos e principais stakeholders em grau crescente (CHOI et al, 2016;CONFEDERAÇÃO NACIONAL DA INDÚSTRIA -CNI, 2016;DE MORAIS;MONTEIRO, 2016). Indústria 4.0 é a completa transformação de toda a esfera de produção industrial através da fusão de tecnologias digitais apoiadas na Internet, com a indústria convencional (EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT, 2015).…”

Indústria 4.0 E a Internet Das Coisas: Avaliação De Segurança Dos Dispositivos

“…Um novo paradigma de produção se faz presente, a Indústria 4.0, também denominada a Quarta Revolução industrial, quando o uso de tecnologias digitais, apoiadas na Internet, se fundem aos processos de produção industrial, transformando a indústria convencional (CONFEDERAÇÃO NACIONAL DA INDÚSTRIA -CNI, 2016;EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT, 2015). A Indústria 4.0, é caracterizada pela integração e digitalização entre processos produtivos e produtos, principais stakeholders e cadeia de suprimentos em grau progressivo (CHOI et al, 2016;DE MORAIS;MONTEIRO, 2016;SCHLAEPFER, 2015).…”
