Smart Manufacturing: The Role of RPA in Industry 4.0
The manufacturing industry is undergoing a major digital transformation as it enters the era of Industry 4.0 . At the heart of this revolution is Robotic Process Automation (RPA) — a powerful technology reshaping how manufacturers operate. By automating repetitive and time-consuming tasks, RPA enhances productivity, accuracy, and scalability, forming a cornerstone of smart manufacturing . What is Smart Manufacturing and Industry 4.0? Smart manufacturing is a modern approach that integrates cutting-edge technologies such as: Internet of Things (IoT) Artificial Intelligence (AI) Big Data Automation and RPA This fusion creates intelligent, data-driven production systems capable of adapting to changing demands and driving continuous improvement. Industry 4.0 , also known as the fourth industrial revolution, represents this evolution. It connects physical machines with digital systems, enabling real-time data analysis, enhanced decision-making, and increased operational...
