Although the recent impact of the COVID-19 (New Coronary Pneumonia) epidemic caused a short-term loss in the aviation industry, for the overall aviation market, the demand is still constant.

The revenue of the laser industry grows higher and higher in recent years. As manufacturing industry moves toward smart, intelligence and systematization, the laser manufacturing process has become an indispensable role in the manufacturing industry.

In recent years, with the development of Industry 4.0, factory automation has become a future trend.

"Efficiency" is the most important key in the pursuit of success in the manufacturing process and the entire industry.

Today, the Internet of Things is still a hot topic in many industries. Emphasizing the benefits of adopting this technology, Fortune Business Insights estimates that by 2026, the global Internet of Things market will reach 1102.6 billion US dollars.

A smart city is to improve the quality of life of citizens through the innovative application of technology, from the early practitioners developed independently, now smart cities are more emphasis on user-centered and build a smart ecosystem.

Smart City refers to the use of various information technologies or innovative ideas to integrate urban constituent systems and services to improve the efficiency of resource utilization, optimize urban management and services, and improve the quality of life of citizens.

With the complexity of geopolitics, the shortage of talents, the popularity of 5G, and the maturity of Industry 4.0, can companies respond to future challenges? Future manufacturing trends will focus on three main directions: experience, innovation-driven energy, and supply chain restructuring.

The advent of the Industry 4.0 era, coupled with the continued fever of the China-US trade war, has driven Taiwan's manufacturing industry to transform its digital manufacturing into smart manufacturing through digitalization and intelligentization. However, there are four major challenges encountered during the transformation process, and finding a solution to the practice will be the key to the company's victory.

"Link" and "Optimization" are the core spirits of Industry 4.0. To create these two key elements, it requires extensive use of automated production, Internet of Things, intelligent robots, supply chain interconnection, and big data.

Edge computing is a distributed computing architecture that moves applications, data, and services from the central node of the network to the logical edge nodes of the network for processing. Edge computing decomposes large-scale services that were originally processed by the central node into smaller and more manageable parts, and is distributed to the edge nodes for processing.

Under the leading policy of "Industry 4.0" in Germany, the manufacturing industry followed the concept of "smart manufacturing", and introduced the digital application of machinery into the factory. Based on the information technology services that belong to the energy economy category, it was imported from cloud software. Optimize the process. This kind of service platform is built on a modular structure that can be flexibly combined and uses AI to assist in providing strategic recommendations to achieve the energy-saving benefits of IoT machines.

5G is regarded as an important promoter of Industry 4.0. 5G's high network speed and low power consumption enable each sensor of the future unmanned factory to be connected to the cloud, further extracting data for analysis, and driving artificial intelligence.

5G is the engine of Industry 4.0, reshaping the industry! How should Taiwan's manufacturing industry seize the opportunity to upgrade its manufacturing industry?

Driven by the German government's national policy, Industry 4.0 has become the most high-profile manufacturing issue in the world. Therefore, countries have successively launched corresponding smart manufacturing policies. With the help of 5G, the world is facing an uncompleted and perfect 5G environment to respond to smart manufacturing Yes, and Taiwan still has many opportunities and challenges in 5G smart manufacturing. Taiwan ’s 5G commercialization is imminent, and it is still expected that the government, telecommunications operators, and automation industry will work together to accelerate the full implementation of 5G.

Industrial robots can more quickly and handle large-scale mass production work. So far, nearly half of the industrial robots in the world are used by automobile factories. Let's understand the advantages and disadvantages and applications of industrial robots.

Industrial robots use a large number of sensors to achieve good operation and control in industrial automation production processes. For example, collaborative robots integrate torque sensors and cameras to ensure the best perspective and safety. What sensors are integrated with industrial robots?

How collaborative robots join production has become a link in the manufacturing chain, improving production efficiency. The small-scale collaborative industrial robot can be operated in a narrower place to solve the problem of working space limitation.

An important issue in the development of smart manufacturing is human-computer collaboration, and true human-computer collaboration does not only mean cooperation and coexistence. As the frequency of man-machine operations working together in the same workspace is getting higher and higher, many sensors are also appearing to assist in monitoring and preventive control.

With the advent of Industry 4.0, countries have also adjusted their industrial manufacturing strategies to enhance their smart manufacturing capabilities.
