New EV product – our electrical and automation engineers have collaborated to develop our Charge Management System (CMS) optimized for EV Charge Point utility power management.
Industry 4.0 is a methodology developed by the EU to improve their manufacturing competitiveness as product lot sizes decrease and product variation increases due to customization. Whilst our manufacturing base is tiny compared to the EU, Australia could achieve significant productivity improvements by implementing Industry 4.0 concepts.
There is no “one size fits all” solution for Industry 4.0 and implementations will differ depending on the manufacturer, however for Australian manufacturers the benefits cannot be ignored.
- Increased productivity – automated processing reduces labour costs whilst increasing precision
- Reduced operational costs – more data for tracking costs and reducing waste
- Lower maintenance costs – predictive maintenance using intelligent data algorithms
- Improved decision making – better communication from suppliers to manufacturers to end customers
- Continuous Improvement – Big Data and Analytics used to optimize processes
- Higher customer satisfaction – tailored product customization to suit specific needs
We offer Process Control and Automation Systems built using products which have been specifically developed to promote innovation, are compliant with International Standards, and meet Industry 4.0 and IOT requirements.
