The manufacturing industry is currently amid the fourth industrial revolution. Industry 4.0 is a holistic vision of future cyber-physical systems that are built on both advanced manufacturing, focused on the physical advances such as additive manufacturing or manufacturing of novel and optimal designs for process intensification, as well as smart manufacturing, focused on the cyber or digital side including data analytics and AI. This digital transformation and embracing of smart technologies, such as sensors, Industrial Internet of Things, smart wearables, artificial intelligence and predictive modeling, paves the way for more efficient, sustainable, adaptive, resilient and effective processes and operations.
