The industry's path to 4.0

In the last third of the 19th century, European industrialization had a new direction. In this “second industrial revolution”, the German economy was a leader (“from the straggler to the pioneer”). In the past, she had to import techniques from England, she has now become a technology exporter. In addition to the chemical industry and electrical engineering, the new dominating industries also included mechanical engineering and optical industry.

With Industry 4.0, new possibilities and potential for intelligent production in the smart factory are developing, for example with flexible manufacturing processes: All processes in the manufacturing process are transparent in the smart factory, which allows companies to be flexible to changing conditions (e.g. increased feed-in of green electricity due to changed weather conditions). react and adapt processes quickly. Added to this is individual production: special customer requests can be implemented flexibly, profitably and at short notice, as the time-consuming reprogramming of the machines is no longer necessary.

Nowadays, the automation industry and the field of robotics are an integral part of Industry 4.0, also in the outlook and expansion of future projects.

In the wake of Industry 4.0, the topic of industrial automation is becoming more and more the focus of current discussions. The automation industry already plays an important role in the context of digitalized production processes.

The increasing interest becomes clear when looking at the sales of the German automation industry. A continuous increase has been observed from 2013 to 2018. In 2019 and 2020, earnings declined slightly. The area of ​​measurement technology and process automation is the sector with the highest sales within the automation industry.

Industrial robots are an important sector on the way to digitalized and automated production processes. In 2017, global sales amounted to around 381,000 industrial robots.

Industrial automation is also an important employer in Germany. In 2020, the industry employed around 258,200 people. The largest automation technology companies in the world, measured by sales, are Siemens, Emerson, ABB and Schneider Electric. Siemens generated sales of around $14 billion in 2019 alone. The Japanese company Mitsubishi Electric and ABB Robotics from Switzerland are also considered the most important manufacturers of industrial robots.
