optimally balance and deploy available power, gas and heat capacity from a wide range of sources. The answer to these challenges is Integrated Industry – the intelligent digital networking and integration of industrial systems and processes. The key challenges of the fourth industrial
revolution – such as achieving universal standards for machine-to-machine communication, maintaining data security and finding new business models – can be mastered only through collective endeavour in networks. This requires effective dialogue and cooperation between the mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and IT sectors. The enormous potential that all sectors of industry can unleash through this sort of integration will be on show at Hannover Messe 2015.
Ingenious production processes Visitors to the fair will witness digitally networked production plants, smart grid technologies, ingenious new production processes (such as 3D printing), and next-generation industrial robots live in action. They will see collaborative robots with sensor systems so advanced that they can work right alongside their human counterparts without any safety barriers. And they will see IT-based automation solutions that will bring fundamental change to all in-factory processes.
T
here will be a shift away from mass production as customers demand customised products – at the same low prices they enjoy for mass-produced goods.
Also on display will be smart technologies that manage and coordinate power, gas and heat networks so that capacity can be balanced and optimally deployed across the entire energy system. What’s more, visitors will be able to watch as
additive manufacturing systems (3D printers) make individualised products right before their eyes. These technologies and themes will be explored in even greater depth in the 1,000-plus supporting forums and guided tours on offer at the fair. Hannover Messe, the world’s leading trade fair
for industrial technology is taking place in Hannover, Germany, running from 13 to 17 April 2015 and features India as its official Partner Country. n
