Institute
Industrie 4.0 is hitting the market. The e.GO Life – an electric car for the city – is developed in under three years and only € 30M investment
RWTH Campus pairs research and industry partners to pursue innovative ideas and yield cutting-edge products and services to face next-level digitization.
Digital, agile businesses outperform traditional businesses because of lower latencies in the entire reaction chain
acatech Industrie 4.0 Maturity Index: Helping established companies to build the development path to Industrie 4.0
The Maturity Index is offered to the Plattform Industrie 4.0 for transferring the approach to industry and defining Industrie 4.0 performance levels.
An open infrastructure allows testing of new innovative possibilities for the manufacturing industry Industrie 4.0 is hitting the market. The e.GO Life - an electric car for the city - is developed in under three years and only € 50M investment.
Digital shadow enables fast adaption of products and production.
Digital, agile businesses outperform traditional businesses because of lower latencies in the entire reaction chain. The capability of using data and generate knowledge will different digital champions from losers.
The goal of Industrie 4.0 is a learning agile company;a mere technology driven approach is not sufficient.
A successful implementation of Industrie 4.0 in manufacturing companies requires a holistic transformation approach.
There are many reasons why the shift towards a learning, agile company fails.
For a successful implementation, the entire company structure has to be considered. A stepwise approach is required to build the agile enterprise - smart use of data is the critical success factor.
Company development within the structuring forcesis based on an Industrie 4.0 development path.
The four structuring forces illustrate the fundamental Industrie 4.0 development and are captured by key questions.
The Maturity Index is developed by renowned partners from industry and research Overview on strategic goals and derived projects.
Konzepte und technologische Möglichkeiten, zusammengefasst unter dem Begriff „Industrie A.=“, ermöglichen es produzierenden Unternehmen, zu einer datenbasiert lernenden Organisation zu werden. Grundvoraussetzung dazu ist eine entsprechende IoT-Architektur. In diesem Beitrag wird ein Verfahren vorgestellt, dass die systematische Integration von Funktionen eines Energieinformationssystems in eine IoTArchitektur, dem Internet of Production, erläutert.
The evaluation of the maturity level of the participating companies has provided an initial insight into the degree of implementation and the upcoming challenges of Industrie 4.0 in Mexico. The assessment shows that Mexican companies have built the necessary foundation to start their digital transformation. Challenges now lie in establishing an integrated IT landscape that makes it possible to generate a digital shadow of the entire company. In order to leverage the potential of this technological development, it is necessary to work in parallel on an even more flexible organizational structure and an innovation-promoting Culture.
In order to strategically plan the digital transformation of a manufacturing company, a detailed analysis of the company's maturity level must be carried out. The basic dimensions of such an analysis were presented in the present paper. The Industrie 4.0 Maturity Index offers a framework that identifies approximately 50 individual capabilities required for the systematic implementation of Industrie 4.0 and groups them into the four dimensions discussed in this paper. Only an analysis of a company's key processes at this level of detail can form the basis for a sound investment decision and a roadmap that outlines the steps towards its digital transformation for the upcoming years.
Der Sondermaschinenbauer HAHN GROUP befindet sich auf internationalem Expansionskurs. Mit Unterstützung des FIR an der RWTH Aachen hat die HAHN GROUP nun ihren IT- und Digitalisierungsbereich, der aufgrund der Expansion eine Reorganisation benötigte, neu aufgestellt und damit eine internationale Standardisierung der internen Prozesse erreicht.
Ziel der Zusammenarbeit war die Schaffung flexibler und gleichzeitig standardisierter, standortunabhängiger IT-Strukturen.
Assessment of IS Integration Efforts to Implement the Internet of Production Reference Architecture
(2018)
As part of a collaborative network, manufacturing companies are required to be agile and accelerate their decision making. To do so, a high amount of data is available and needs to be utilized. To enable this from a company internal information system perspective, the Internet of Production (IoP) describes a future information system (IS) architecture. Core element of the IoP is a digital platform building the basis for a network of cognitive systems. To implement and continuously further develop the IoP, manufacturing companies need to make architecture-related decisions concerning the accessibility of data, the processing of the data as well as the visualization of the information. The goal of this research is the development of a decision-support methodology to make those decisions, taking under consideration the evaluated IS integration effort. Therefore, this paper describes the allocation of IS functions and identifies the effort drivers for the respective IS integration by analyzing the integration possibilities. Conclusively this approach will be validated in a case study.
