Course Description

From the steam engine of the first industrial revolution to modern-day automation – manufacturing keeps evolving.

The latest evolution is the smart factory.

A smart factory applies technologies such as IoT and automation to manufacturing processes. By acquiring real-time information from both in and outside the factory, and promptly applying it to manufacturing processes, these factories can greatly improve operational performance.

In this online course, you’ll learn about revolutionary technologies used in a smart factory. You’ll also uncover the unique benefits a smart factory offers and how companies can go about developing one. Finally, you’ll see some real examples from an award-winning smart factory.

Take this course and see what opportunities Industry 4.0 and smart factories have in store for you!
