Why Bosch Industry 4.0 Drawing from our long experience we found seven key features of i4.0. They are the guidelines for all new components, software modules, and services by Bosch. Icon connectivity Distributed intelligence From autonomous rollers to flexible manufacturing modules: with distributed intelligence, modules know their technical skills and organize themselves decentrally. Icon arrows left right Fast integration and flexible configuration Fast Integration and flexible configuration facilitate the adaptability of Industry 4.0. People, machines, processes, and flows of goods are connected easily and fast and can be quickly adapted to ever-changing requirements. Icon chip Open standards Open Standards are essential to integrating equipment and software of various suppliers into connected concepts. They form the basis for horizontal and vertical integration and thus the seamless exchange of information. Icon devices Virtual real-time representation Virtual real-time representations of objects interact with each other and with software systems. They enable the real-time analysis of all manufacturing and logistics data and the control of all physical objects. Icon binary Digital life-cycle management Aggregating and analyzing all the available data during the complete lifespan of a product helps to continuously improve the design and manufacturing processes. Icon industry Secure value-creation network Safety and security for Industry 4.0 includes the protection of people from machinery-related hazards (safety) and the protection of corporate facilities and IT from attacks and faults from the surrounding environment (security). Icon user setting People as key players In Industry 4.0, people are the key players — work is getting easier, safer and more efficient — enabled through technology — but machines will continue to play the subordinate role.
