Industry 4.0
Industry 4.0 implements the vision of smart factories - a fully integrated, automated and continuously optimized environment based on the principle of connected cybernetics. Investing in the development and implementation of innovative solutions will ensure sustainability and competitiveness.
Corporate management is increasingly asking how to respond flexibly to changing demand. It is not just about the diversity of product portfolios or shortening product launch times, but also about new business models and finding new ways to create added value.
- Optimization of production and logistics processes including automation equipment such as collaborative robots (cobots), including the necessary environment (peripherals) and security features
- Delivery, integration or rental of cobots including other necessary equipment - peripherals
The aim is to gradually eliminate strenuous and monotonous manual work, reduce the number of operators and manipulators, or eliminate them.
