IoT in Industry 4.0 and beyond
?? Remote control of factories and plants from any corner of the world?
?? Mass production of personalized items: from sneakers to cars?
?? Testing and validation of new manufacturing approaches without direct physical effect on the facilities?
It's all possible now because of Industry 4.0 – a technological era where Cyber-Physical Systems and the Industrial Internet of Things became the leading game changers.? Schneider Electric's 50-year-old Le Vaudreuil site in France saved 10% of energy costs with IoT sensors and reduced diagnosis and repair time by 20% with AR support for factory workers. With the help of AI/ML and real-time data, the integration of factory machinery with the digital world has enhanced industrial processes, operational flexibility, supply chain management, and overall business agility.?
Now, what is the Industrial Internet of Things all about?? ?
In this newsletter, we'll walk you through how Intellias makes a difference using Industrial IoT. Let's explore!?
Predictive Maintenance: take the guesswork out of the planning equation?
IoT approaches that ensure the sustainability of business are gaining momentum. Companies seek breakthrough solutions to avoid incidents, achieve equipment reliability, and reduce unexpected costs.?
But organizations prefer to validate the initial prototypes before implementing large-scale IoT projects. Going all-in might be risky without evaluating the upcoming development's financial benefits based on a PoC.?
?Let us introduce PreFix, an industrial equipment monitoring solution concept that showcases the possibility to develop an operational IoT solution within a very reasonable timeframe. It detects anomalies like heat exchanging system breakdown, liquid leakage in chemical storage tanks, pumping system failure, motor vibration, and more. In simple words, PreFix tracks the equipment's health which is crucial for safety in the industrial environment. Overall, detecting issues, and fixing them in the early terms, saves companies money and makes the life of manufacturers much easier, so they can focus on sustainable growth.?
IoT Digital Twins: just a fancy 3D visualization?
The short answer is no. Digital Twins is an emerging trend in predictive maintenance and is actively used in diverse industries like manufacturing, healthcare, energy, transportation, and beyond.?

By capturing real-time data from IoT devices and converting it into insights, digital twins help prevent failures and find solutions enabling effective business strategies and decision-making.?
For example, in manufacturing, Digital Twins simulate factory throughput by changing parameters using a virtual copy of the physical environment. This helps manufacturers identify bottlenecks before buying new equipment. This kind of simulation offers manufacturers unparalleled control and insight into their production processes, leading to increased efficiency, improved product quality, and a competitive edge on the market.?

The Fourth Industrial Revolution was the first predicted ex-ante, not observed ex-post and officially coined at the 2011 Hannover Fair in Germany. This was the beginning of the proactive approach towards shaping the future of industrial development. And this is where Industry 5.0 comes in.?
Creating a new vector of collaboration between humans and technology is the primary goal of Industry 5.0. In terms of IoT, it means that different IoT devices, robots, and co-bots will take up all the mundane work and leave us more space for creative tasks, brainstorming, and building solid strategies.?? ?
