The Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) is different for developed versus developing countries. ODIN Manufacturing is making 4IR work for developing countries by using digital manufacturing technologies to unlock human potential.
Unlike automation, digitisation is not about taking people off production lines but about equipping them to be more productive and efficient. Human-centric factories can accelerate skills development and allow companies in developing countries to compete globally.
7 ways to use 4IR tech to improve your manufacturing productivity
Bridge the IT/OT gap and use shopfloor data to increase production performance and output.
Reduce time and cost for upskilling new employees.
Increase operations efficiencies by working towards data-driven KPIs.
Prevent unplanned downtime and save costs by using IOT sensors to predict machine failures.
Reduce admin time by digitising basic paper-based processes such as maintenance and safety compliance.
Reduce the time and cost of solving problems by using the human-machine communication platform to improve people-to-people and machine-to-people communication.
Reduce the cost of assembly station equipment and make the station more flexible by virtualising devices.
