What is Industry 4.0? What is the Industrial Internet?

In the top ten industries of the Internet of Things proposed by China in 2011, it is clear that the development direction of industrial Internet of Things is “industrial and automation control”. There are many people in the industry who are confusing this basic concept. When people often refer to the application of the Internet of Things in the field of industrial manufacturing, the industry 4.0 or industrial Internet are respectively equated with the industrial Internet of Things, which has a great internal difference.

What is Industry 4.0? What is the Industrial Internet?

1. Background and meaning behind it

First of all, we have to revisit the background and the meaning behind these two concepts.

In April 2013, the German government officially launched the “Industry 4.0” strategy at the Hannover Messe, with the aim of increasing the competitiveness of German industry and taking the lead in the new round of industrial revolution. German academics and industry believe that the "Industry 4.0" concept is the fourth industrial revolution dominated by intelligent manufacturing, or a revolutionary production method. The strategy aims to transform manufacturing into an intelligent enterprise by leveraging the combination of ICT and the cyberspace virtual system, the Cyber-Physical System.

The concept of Industrial Internet is that in June 2013, GE of the United States took the lead in proposing the Industrial Internet RevoluTIon. GE’s boss Immelt said in his speech that an open, global network would People, data and machines are connected. The goal of the Industrial Internet is to upgrade those key industrial sectors. There are millions of machines around the world today, from simple electric motorcycles to sophisticated MRI machines. There are tens of thousands of complex mechanical clusters, from power plants to transport aircraft. So remember that the full name of this concept is actually called "Industrial Internet Revolution", and the following description explains the meaning behind it.

Germany's Industry 4.0 does not explicitly point out what it has to do with the Internet. It emphasizes methodology, is the direction of manufacturing, and must be intelligent. But in essence, Industry 4.0 is still an integral part of the evolution of the Internet. Popularly speaking, after countless industries were hit by the Internet wave, the Internet began to transform industrial manufacturing.

2. So how do you transform it? The core is the Internet of Things

Now we can clearly understand that the Industrial Internet of Things is the key to intelligent manufacturing improvement. Rather than being stunned by the noun concept.

In the strategic planning of "Made in China 2025", I feel that today's top management is very clear-headed, and we have clearly understood the level of our industrial base, so I feel very objectively proposed, the improvement of Chinese manufacturing, 2025 see! It can't be done overnight. We are not positively led by German Industry 4.0 and the so-called Industrial Internet, or those who are tall and far from our actual situation. This is a basic understanding. China's industry or Chinese manufacturing must start from 1.5 or even 2.0. It must take more than 10 years to complete the construction of industrial Internet of Things. This is the key.

So what are the industrial Internet of Things that must be completed or what should be done?

Combining our observations in the past two years and the industrial preparations in various aspects, I propose to start from the following aspects.

First, the settlement of the family

how to say? Many corporate executives simply don't know exactly what their factory is in. Of course, many local governments have no way to clearly understand the actual situation of local industrial manufacturing. This creates a huge waste. Many people mistakenly believe that our industrial base is weak and still in the handicraft industry a hundred years ago. Wrong, unless it is the craft industry that really needs our craftsmen, in fact, our industrial base has been reformed and opened up for so many years, and the facilities are not bad.

But what is the problem we have? There is something good in your hand that you don't use, or it doesn't work at all. I have visited a large factory in a big city in the north. It is definitely a national level and a demonstration base for the local government's key smart industries. The cheapest machine tools inside are worth a "Benz", and even the world's most advanced equipment, costing tens of millions of introductions. However, there is no way, the level of operation of the workers is limited, and the machine does not achieve the true result.

The private entrepreneur who was with me, looking at the pile of equipment with a three-footed expression, I still remember it. Later, I docked the cooperation between the two sides and it is said that the effect is good.

Second, play a role

Without good equipment and good equipment, it can't fully play its role. This is the current situation. How to solve it? I thought that the first thing to solve was the standard system for evaluating and evaluating. Or what exactly is the real efficiency, can you know. One of our important member units, and a national team-level company, told me a classic case in the exchange. They used to coach a factory under Foxconn. At that time, the factory was OEM to the United States. The total time of the parts used in the past was 37 minutes, and everyone was very satisfied. The result, under our guidance, helped to redesign and tweak the process. How much time does it take to produce this part now? 3 minutes! That is more than 10 times the efficiency improvement. The benefits brought by the increase are naturally amazing!

This is the effect brought by the industrial Internet of Things. The same equipment, the same workers, have been re-optimized and improved, and the effect is twofold. Therefore, there are a lot of high-end equipment in our country, and there are a lot of high-end lathes. Everyone is still complaining that our technical level is backward. This is really not the case. It won't be terrible!

Therefore, the improvement of Chinese manufacturing must not be bought or bought, but changed.

Third, learn the method

The previous questions are all on the surface. How to solve it?

Last year we set up a smart manufacturing and industrial IoT center, ready to work to solve the above problems. Building industrial IoT big data everywhere

The service platform will fully bring our accumulated experience and capabilities to the local business community. Of course, this process is inseparable from the support of the local government. Not long ago, we had exchanges and docking with the two cities, and the effect was very good. Local leaders are very supportive of the landing of our industrial service platform and have given strong support.

Strengthen training. It is better to teach people to fish than to fish! The Internet of Things is a long-term process. The Industrial Internet of Things is even more so. It’s probably a word, a layer of window paper, but it’s hard to dig deeper and understand. Just like the example given above, companies such as Foxconn, which are famous for their foundry, say that the level of technology is not high, but there are still defects and problems. We have specially prepared a complete training system for this purpose, and also introduced advanced training experience from German counterparts, which will help domestic enterprises develop rapidly in the future.

Fourth, change the mode

The traditional business model is nothing more than a buying and selling relationship. The company buys a machine tool, the manufacturer trains the technicians, and the church uses it, even if the task is completed. In the face of smart manufacturing, there is still a big gap in simply learning to use. The so-called intelligent manufacturing, in fact, the core is how to maximize the performance, just like most of our high-end machine tools only play less than 60% of the performance. And how do we reflect on the value of how to improve or quickly improve efficiency through technology?

In fact, it is very simple. We can adopt a similar approach to contract energy management to carry out a profit-sharing model according to the effect of the solution and the value of the upgrade. At the same time: in the face of the industrial services of the Internet of Things, we will fully play the sharing model. This year we are working with a listed company to build 10 industrial IoT service centers across the country. Each center has equipment spare parts, if your factory If there is a problem with the equipment, we will replace the spare parts with the fastest speed and solve the problem in time. Services like this have been supported by many big companies, which saves the burden on enterprises, and also increases the circulation rate of the industry, even turning waste into treasure.

You see, these are all things that can be done in the Industrial Internet of Things. At this time, we said that the industry embraces the Internet, or the core of the Internet + industry is clear.

There are a lot of people who might say that they are selling products or customizing services. Isn't it the Industrial Internet? Think about it, without the support of the back-end factory system, or even the entire so-called customized service is not a complete industrial IoT process?

3. The future has come, the Internet of Everything

The future has come, the Internet of Everything, the future of intelligent manufacturing will continue to meet, the most effective to enhance the entire business process. Those foundations are to complete the Internet of things in the industry, which must be recognized. Otherwise, what concept is arguing, there is no practical significance, even if you say that you can achieve Industry 8.0?

Our alliance welcomes the establishment of the Industrial IoT service platform and cooperation with all localities. If you are interested in this and have certain local government resources, please feel free to contact me. Our support companies in the intelligent manufacturing and industrial physical network center not only have Central enterprises, as well as listed companies, in short, there is no diamonds to dare to take porcelain.

The last word, listen to it, right, you will do it. If you think it is wrong, then follow you. Anyway, I think the trend of technology and social development is irreversible!
