“…The implication of SSP results in easy demonstration of customizable smart product design. Since the digitization of the manufacturing processes is closely related to the implication of computer-controlled machines, AM processes are the best targets of cloud manufacturing [96]. Lehmhus et al [97], showed that data-related manufacturing processes, and especially AM processes, are based on automated machines which are precisely controlled by computers and as a result, there is always the flexibility of controlling and customizing processes based on customer needs and supply availability.…”

Additive manufacturing (AM) or three-dimensional (3D) printing has introduced a novel production method in design, manufacturing, and distribution to end-users. This technology has provided great freedom in design for creating complex components, highly customizable products, and efficient waste minimization. The last industrial revolution, namely industry 4.0, employs the integration of smart manufacturing systems and developed information technologies. Accordingly, AM plays a principal role in industry 4.0 thanks to numerous benefits, such as time and material saving, rapid prototyping, high efficiency, and decentralized production methods. This review paper is to organize a comprehensive study on AM technology and present the latest achievements and industrial applications. Besides that, this paper investigates the sustainability dimensions of the AM process and the added values in economic, social, and environment sections. Finally, the paper concludes by pointing out the future trend of AM in technology, applications, and materials aspects that have the potential to come up with new ideas for the future of AM explorations.

“…Cloud-based manufacturing for on-demand products is an emerging technology that will change the shape of manufacturing in 4IR. It involves the rapid configuration of an architecture of loosely connected modular manufacturing devices to make highly customised products [7]. Cloud manufacturing services are self-organising, fault tolerant, and on-demand.…”

Innovating for Market Adoption in the Fourth Industrial Revolution

Will the market adoption of innovative products and services in the fourth industrial revolution require an alternative reality? This question is investigated in a concept paper in which new product adoption patterns, alternative innovation regimes that include intelligent machines as innovation partners with humans, disruption of the producer, the fourth industrial revolution consumer, and a fundamental change in business models are considered. Thought models are proposed in which these four entities drive a new concept of 'life-world' products through which consumers innovate for their own personalisation and customisation, manufacturing plants for volume products become algorithm factories, and the linear value chain is destroyed and replaced by the value network. This happens because the consumer becomes part of the value chain, and overlaps of producer and consumer functions as we know them merge into a new production ecosystem driven by social commerce. Innovation by the consumer takes away the producer's concerns about market adoption; they may now servitise innovation support. This paper is meant to stimulate academic debate and to initiate research that will validate the thought models it suggests.
