Industrial 1.0, the steam engine replaced the human, the capacity of small scale began to appear on a large scale;Industrial 2.0, electricity replaced steam power, manufacturing capacity increased;Industrial 3.0, automated production has brought machines to take over a great deal of human labor, increasing capacity and even producing excess capacity.
Now that the concept of industry 4.0 has begun to emerge, what is industry 4.0?Will there be a significant increase in capacity, as in the previous three?
Industry 4.0 mainly does not increase production capacity, after all, industrial 3.0 already has the situation of excess capacity.
Industry of 4.0 and 3.0 are machine production, different from industrial automation production of 3.0 4.0 is intelligent production, machine is no longer to manufacture according to fixed process, but can be made according to the actual demand, thanks to the development of the Internet.
Industry 4.0 is intelligent, the biggest characteristic is industrial 3.0 is not convenient also does not love to do, quick, small batch, custom-made production begins to become simple.
1. Industrial 4.0, the first heavy day, intelligent production.
As we've said before, production equipment and management information systems are also connected, and devices and information systems are connected.Do you feel anything else?Yes, the raw materials and production equipment are not connected.
At this point, we need something called RFID, RFID technology.If you don't understand, it's a qr code, and it's a bit of a bit of information, and it's a great place for him to be able to communicate wirelessly.
I was to describe a scene, Pepsi's production workshop, production line come over three consecutive bottles, each bottle comes with a qr code, it is a record of for zhang SAN, li si, and this two pock-marked customization of coke.
The first bottle to the filling, told is controlled by qr code of the wireless controller, said zhang liked sweet, sugar, and then the controller will tell filling machine hand, "and two jins of sugar!"(zhang SAN is unlucky...).
The second bottle comes over and says that li si is diabetic, without sugar, the controller tells the robot, "don't sugar!"
The third bottle came over, and said that the king's son wanted to be fender, and the control told him the robot "you rest," and told the fender manipulator, "you!"
See, many varieties, small batch and customization, each irrigation coke from the moment you place an order online, he is customized for you, all of his features, are in accordance with your preferences.
This is smart production.
2. Industrial 4.0 for the second day, intelligent products.
Production process of the intelligent, then as a finished product of industrial products, can also intelligent, this is not hard to understand, what you see intelligent hand ring, smart bike, intelligent running shoes and so on intelligent hardware are in this line of thought.It is to collect the data of the product as a data acquisition terminal, collect the user's data and upload it to the cloud, so that users can manage it.
One of the key differences between the German industrial 4.0 and industrial Internet is the smart factory or the smart product first.Germany wants the former and America wants the latter.
3. Industrial 4.0 third day, production services.
Just now, smart products will continuously collect users' data and status and upload them to vendors, which will make a new business model possible and charge service fees.Many years ago Siemens came up with the idea of paying for services. At the time, it was not clear what the German idea was, but it was a few years ago that it began to make the layout for the production of industry 4.0.What's your impression of Siemens?The refrigerator?In fact, Siemens has quietly acquired several famous software companies in recent years, becoming the second largest software company in Europe after SAP.
What is this service?Such as Siemens in the production of a high-speed traction motor, the past is direct selling an electric motor, the motor in the process of running now, will keep the data back to the factory of Siemens, the Siemens now, you will know the motor running condition, and when in need of repair.What did the high-speed rail companies do in the past?One cut, set a time, time to repair, whether it should be repaired or not, we have no difference in car maintenance.Now Siemens can tell you when it needs to be fixed and when it needs to be maintained. If you want to know, you will need services.
For example, implementation of intelligent products, every car will constantly around the data, to determine their own route, the whole transportation system will be completely as a service, no one needs to buy a car.
At this stage, all manufacturers will shift to service providers.
4. Industrial 4.0, 4th heavy day, cloud factory.
Another new business model will be born when the two factories merge further, and that is the cloud factory.
The equipment in the factory now is smart, is in constant to collect their own data uploaded to the Internet industry, at this time, we can see which factories which production lines are running at full capacity, which is free.Then these idle factories can sell their production capacity and produce for other people who need it.
Why the Internet industry development so fast, it is only because entrepreneurs need to focus on products and mode innovation, don't need to buy a server, but directly to rent the cloud service.The current entrepreneurs in the industry are still struggling to find an OEM or a self-built plant, which greatly limits innovation in the industrial sector.When the factory implementation of cloud, I predict that China's industrial sector will be a more than one hundred times greater than the Internet wave of innovation and entrepreneurship, and the society at that time all will be profound change.
5. Industrial 4.0 fifth day, cross-border strike.
The Internet industry has said every day to reduce the traditional industry, what Google xiaomi alibaba Letv.But when industry 4.0 enters its fifth day, industrial companies will be hit harder than these Internet companies.This process will fundamentally shake the foundations of modern economics and management and reshape the entire business community.
For example, a production of watches manufacturer, the table with your body, every day to collect the data of your body to watch manufacturers may not do these data, but for the insurance company is a vault, this time, watch manufacturer has can become the best insurance company.
When automation and informationization are deeply integrated, cross-boundary competition will become the norm, and all business models will be remade.
6. Industrial 4.0. The matrix.
The whole industry 4.0 process, which is the process of integration of automation and informatization, is also the process of redefining the world with software.
In the future, the multiverse will become a reality in the virtual world, and a real world will correspond to countless virtual worlds.Change the real world, the virtual world will change;Change the virtual world and the real world will change.Everything is based on the data is accurate, the control of most of human manual Labour and mental Labour will be replaced by machines and artificial intelligence, all present the principles of economics will no longer apply.
But there is something that will not change: human love, responsibility, courage, the yearning for the future and freedom, and the never-ending struggle.
Live and live.
