Development of Manufacturing System in the Industrial Revolution 4.0 from Concept to Industrial World

Abstract

Industrial development in the new emerging countries were becoming attractive to OEM manufacturers since a decade ago by proofing stronger reliability of the industrial system enhanced by most countries separately. Especially, after the publicity of the German Government’s campaign on its Industrial Revolution 4.0 by smart factory, where more and more digital technology being created and launched to the market.

The enhancement track records were researched and made available to public by the local government agents so that more medium scale companies could cope with their projects of supplying goods to meet OEM companies’ requirement. The methodology of manufacturing system development is discussed in this paper including the benefits for some industries leading to catch up with their own development programs leading to global competitive players.
