Industry 4.0 in Aluminium

Building on the success of the E-Magazine “Aluminium Industry 4.0: Drivers & Change Makers” last yearthe publisher this time has come up with a report on the same topic on readers’ demand, but with more insightful information.

Since the Industry 4.0 is one of the most talked about topics in the technology and industrial sector including the aluminium value chain industry and as many seasoned plant operators are still not completely aware of the full potential of such technologiesthe research team perceives the importance of discussing the topic yet again and thus, the report being launched titled “Industry 4.0 in Aluminium.”

Being an exclusive aluminium industry portalthe publisher is committed to explore and provide information on any technological innovations that are helping the industry become more efficient and sustainable. So, this report is an attempt to highlight how the implementation of Industry 4.0 and ‘smart manufacturing’ is revolutionising the aluminium manufacturing and processing. Industry 4.0 is used interchangeably with the fourth industrial revolution and represents a new stage in the organization and control of the industrial value chain. It represents the current systems and technologies for automation, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data exchange used in the manufacturing and industrial sector.

On one hand, some companies are facilitating this transformation by providing solutions in the form of Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, IoT, Analytics, etc. On the other hand, few are adapting these technologies and transforming themselves into Smart Companies & factories. This report features all those solutions and technologies, hoping that you all get a clear idea of Robotics, the Internet of Things, Cloud Computing, and Big Data Analytics and how they are driving the revolution of the entire aluminium value chain.
