(EN) With the decentralization of production in Industry 4.0, there is a growing need for smart devices suitable for an increasingly dynamic manufacturing context. The confluence of technological developments such as digitalization and the Internet of Things leads to new ways to control, connect, and manage production devices.

(EN) With the Industrial Internet of Things and the connected machinery increase in smart factories, the volume of available data continues to grow. For this reason, we need a production model capable of processing, analyzing, and optimizing all those data, so that it can be valuable in terms of productivity and efficiency.

(EN) In Industry 4.0, data plays a central role. With the development of faster networks, wider storage space and new sensor technologies, companies have access to ever higher volumes of information. Sometimes even too much…

(EN) Let’s start with a hot topic in manufacturing: predictive and preventive maintenance. Identifying potential machinery problems before they fail, thus reducing downtime and increasing productivity, is one of the key trends in Industry 4.0.

(EN) Mechatronics plays a fundamental role in industry. It increases functionality and efficiency making systems smarter and more autonomous, reduces costs compared to mechanical solutions, and optimizes design times. Therefore, it’s reasonable to expect an even stronger presence in the future.
