FAQs

Also known as the Fourth Industrial Revolution, Industry 4.0 relates to the evolution of technology. This concept represents the future of manufacturing and a window into the evolving relationship between automation and the economy.

Industry 4.0 relies on connected machinery that shares data in real time with manufacturing control systems. This could support new digital business models that allow manufacturers to more quickly pivot what and how they build to better meet the demands of the market.

Industry 4.0 can help gather data that can be leveraged throughout the organization to enhance operational efficiency on the factory floor by using technologies such as predictive maintenance and digital twins.

Digital manufacturing refers to companies that implement network infrastructure and other technologies that help connect systems, users and applications securely and efficiently. This helps enable near-real-time data collection, analysis and decision making.

A Verizon Private 5G Network can be foundational for supporting Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing. The promise of Industry 4.0 lies not just in automation but rather in real-time automation at scale.

Implementing a Private 5G Network can help enable:

  • Predictive maintenance using real-time analytics to help reduce unexpected downtime
  • Augmented reality (AR) that allows workers on the plant floor to video chat remotely with a more experienced technician
  • Better inventory management using purpose-built sensors to gain real-time location visibility of products

Enterprise Intelligence helps to empower your organization to overcome complex manufacturing challenges so you can build a more efficient and agile business—helping you react quickly and effectively to emerging opportunities and threats.
