We want the gear from Glassto to run more precisely , fastly, and lasting a longer time. So Cyber Physical Syste (CPS) information systems can make this better than humans. The so-called “Industry 4.0” in Germany refers to the use of Cyber Physical Syste (CPS) information systems to digitize and intelligentize supply, manufacturing, and sales information in production, ultimately achieving fast, effective, and personalized product supply.
The “Industry 4.0” project is mainly divided into three main themes: the first is “Intelligent Factory”, which focuses on researching intelligent production systems and processes, as well as the implementation of networked distributed production facilities. The second is “intelligent production”, which mainly involves the production logistics management of the entire enterprise, human-computer interaction, and the application of 3D technology in industrial production processes. This plan will pay special attention to attracting small and medium-sized enterprises to participate, aiming to make them users and beneficiaries of the new generation of intelligent production technology, as well as creators and suppliers of advanced industrial production technology. The third is “intelligent logistics”, which integrates logistics resources through the Internet, the Internet of Things, and the logistics network to give full play to the efficiency of existing logistics resource suppliers, while the demander can quickly obtain service matching and logistics support.
Of course, America has its smart industry.”Industrial Internet” can be regarded as the American version of “Industry 4.0”, but it is slightly different. According to Joe Salvo, chairman of Industrial Internet, “Industry 4.0 transforms traditional factories into intelligent networked factories, which is another innovation of manufacturing industry. Industrial Internet not only includes manufacturing industry, but also all basic industries that need to analyze data and information, such as home care, transportation, power and energy, water treatment and other industries, are applications of Industrial Internet”.
After putting forward the “Industrial Internet” strategy, GE launched nine platforms including 24 industrial Internet products. In 2013, GE launched a more ambitious industrial Internet big data analysis platform – “Predix”. In 2015, GE opened the Predix platform to global manufacturing companies.
This is actually a smokeless industrial competition for discourse power. Germany leverages its manufacturing advantages to build its core areas and increases cooperation with China. The cross business software platform established by Siemens is “Sinalytics”, which not only integrates a series of existing and new technologies such as remote maintenance, data analysis, and network security, but also enables the integration, secure transmission, and analysis of large amounts of data generated by machine sensors. In addition, IBM and German SAP are also developing their own industrial Internet platforms.
When we mention industry, we cannot avoid China, which has the largest industry supply chain, this is what we shall discuss later
