Industry 4.0
This research program aims to improve the productivity, safety, product quality and global competitiveness of Australian factories, supply chains and production innovation.
Led by , this research program focuses on the rapidly changing demands of customers.
We work with Australian manufacturers in top-producing export sectors (such as food, high tech and defence), as well as state and federal governments and the in the fields of:
data science
process automation and improvement
human-machine interaction
electronics
control systems
computer science
We work with these partners to establish a 鈥渟mart factory鈥 forum that will:
help define and maintain standard, open, industry-specific interfaces for developing and using Industry 4.0 solutions
support developing, testing and offering new Industry 4.0 solutions with less effort and cost
allow the industry to share Industry 4.0 experiences and lessons learned
Projects within this program aim to substantially increase engagement with Australian manufacturers in the development and delivery of Industry 4.0 solutions, and will ultimately positively impact productivity, safety, product quality and manufacturing agility.
