5. Industry 4.0 won't solve integration problems on process side,
it has a strong focus on individual technologies

Process is leading!
Digitization needs a new, integrating eco-system

7. Production 4.0 is our vision of the factory of the future
highly flexible
completely digital
self optimizing with AI
"JIS" for every part
runs on engineering data
optimizing supply chain in real-time
efficient even at lot size 1
is a product by itself

8. Digitization shapes the next level of production system
BasicsPrinciples
new elements through digitization
Productivity, quality, delivery reliability
Principles such as quality in process,
tact, just-in-time
Connectivity Simplification
Principles such as standardized processes, continuous improvement,
elimination of waste, employee responsibility
Machine-Learning
Control of production and logistics via real-time data
100% digitized ressources based on Internet-of-things
Network infrastrucure

9. In Production 4.0 integration happens on a Production-Process-
Platform, combining engineering, production and logistics
Production-Process-Platform

10. The key benefit will be predictive process control
Production and logistics are optimized and controlled in real-time
Production and logistics are pre-calculated
10

11. Such an integrated platform delivers 10-20% efficiency gain
