INDUSTRY 4.0 SUMMIT PREVIEW ADVERTORIAL


SICK Sensors Get “Smart” for Industry 4.0 Summit


Have you joined up the dots on your industrial network yet?


move forwards into a smart and connected future – with products such as OPC UA and configurable gateways, we are able to keep the data flowing seamlessly across your industrial environment. With Industry 4.0 such a hot topic, we are focussing on products that can help you achieve compliance to this operating standard with the least effort possible. Whether you need to enable a variety of legacy network flavours to communicate seamlessly, or be able to analyse the data coming off the factory floor to predict and prevent downtime and adapt to peaks and troughs in demand – we can help.

forward the fourth industrial revolution in factory, logistics and process automation is the theme for SICK UK’s stand at the Industry 4.0 Summit in Manchester on 4-5 April. Automation experts on SICK’s stand no: R20 will demonstrate typical applications that use Smart Sensors as the essential building blocks to deliver the data needed for a fully-connected and safe Industry 4.0 environment.

Industry 4.0, the sensor links to the machine, system, factory and the entire value-creation chain and provides for transparency in production and logistics.


SICK will be keen to explore with visitors how their user-specific applications can more easily be developed and quickly implemented in Industry 4.0. Intelligent devices including sensors, encoders, cameras and auto-identification systems enable data to be collected, communicated and shared over networks. In Industry 4.0, sensors can perform more extensive analysis, automatically adapt to changes, provide real-time condition monitoring, and remotely solve complex tasks within a larger manufacturing network. Visitors will discover how companies of different sizes can benefit from easier user-programmability and achieve the complete integration of sensors into the cloud. Seb Strutt, Senior Product Manager for SICK UK said: “Industry 4.0 is an exciting new frontier for


factory, logistics and process automation. We often think of 4.0 as a big concept, yet actually delivering its full potential begins with very localised and distributed applications powered by the intelligence embedded in smart devices.

nlocking the potential for sensor intelligence to power


t’s hard to imagine a time when Industry 4.0, the Internet of Things and the Smart Factory weren’t in the news. Being talked about is one thing. Being understood is another. The fourth industrial revolution is here to stay, but how can we make it work for business?


Specialist teams from K3 Syspro will be helping visitors at the Industry 4.0 Summit to understand what technology can do for their sector with solutions in enterprise resource planning (SYSPRO ERP), customer relationship management, advanced planning and scheduling, warehouse management, resources and e-business.

K3 Syspro’s teams know how important it is to have the best-of-breed technology, but equally important is knowing how to use the data which comes from it. As they say: knowledge is power. And Industry 4.0 is game changing. It’s important to K3 Syspro to help keep their customers one step ahead in this age of information and rapidly advancing technology.


The Industry 4.0 Summit promises to be the UK’s largest gathering of leaders involved in global manufacturing, and this year K3 Syspro is not only exhibiting at the event but Chief Business Officer, Cathie Hall, is a guest speaker at the Open Technology Forum.


K3 Syspro works with clients across a wide range of manufacturing industries from aerospace and automotive to pharmaceuticals and packaging. The company recently launched an E-book https://www.k3syspro.com/advice-centre/download- centre/industry-4-0-ebook/ called How to Manufacture a Smarter Factory. It is free to download and has lots of practical information for your business.


Do visit the company’s stand and find out how they can help your business get connected and become a smarter factory. Speak to Cathie Hall and or visit Stand F45
