INDUSTRY 4.0 – OPPORTUNITIES
FOR MANUFACTURERS
Industry 4.0 has been garnering a buzz more than ever recently, considering its opportunities and challenges this era is bringing to businesses. On the emergence of Industry 4.0, Creative Engineering has got an act on it – We upgrade from a distributing company to the first turnkey solution engineering company ever in Vietnam!
FROM INDUSTRY 1.0 TO INDUSTRY 4.0
First came water- and steam-powered machines to aid workers in the 1800s, then the massive invention electricity enabling mass production of goods using assembly line by the beginning of the 20h century. The third era came about in the last few decades of the 20th century with the advent of computers and the spawn of automation, where operators were supplemented or superseded by such automate machines and robots.
And now, we enter Industry 4.0, in which cutting-edge technologies including additive manufacturing, robotics, artificial intelligence and other cognitive technologies, advanced materials are incorporated to make such programs as manufacturing execution systems and product life cycle management possible with very little human oversight.
INDUSTRY 4.0 TO MANUFACTURERS: A HUGE PLUS
For many production facilities, the benefits of an Industry 4.0 model are numerous:
– Reduce human workers’ risks, improve their health and safety dramatically in dangerous working environments
– Thanks to big data, supply chains are more easily controlled.
– Much fewer human mistakes – computer could produce much more reliable and consistent productivity and output.
HOW CE ACTS ON INDUSTRY 4.0
Realizing the importance of automated machinery in Engineering, Creative Engineering has established CEAM, which shorted for Creative Engineering Automation & Measurement, the first and only company in Vietnam that supplies full-packed M&M (Material & Machine) and DDS (Design-Delivery-Service). Combining the exceptional materials and technologies from the world-leading adhesive firms with customized designs and services of our skillful engineers and architects, Creative Engineering is able to tackle every corner of your manufacturing process, from which we help businesses reach full potential.

SUMMARY
While lots of opinions point to the fact that an automated future might result in mass unemployment among people, we suggest it be an opportunity to minimize manufacturing accidents and mistakes, while opening up new career paths for people, either supervising the production system or actually inventing new solutions optimise productivity of the manufacturing process
