What is Industry 4.0 and why can it be a game changer? Fabian Schmahl has been around the block in manufacturing, in various industries, and he shares his insights on 4.0 – a concept at the intersection of manufacturing and technology, that effects business processes, talent attraction, efficiency metrics, employee engagement, market flexibility, capital allocation, and much more. Here’s a quick video highlighting 4.0, and an extensive, well written White Paper published by the World Economic Forum. In this podcast, Fabian shares his first-hand experience with Industry 4.0 and how embracing a collaborative approach provides solutions to increase productivity and production for a data-driven world.
8:28 – talking about the effect of 4.0 on Fabian’s plant in Ohio “it has affected us in an incredibly positive way, pretty much everywhere.”
9:02 – “our overall mantra is ‘one source, one truth’”
9:58 – “an environment where employees have an opportunity to develop themselves… it helps to attract talent.”
16:18 – talking about lack of manufacturing talent… “it’s important that we make manufacturing more attractive” (check this video to see their first cobots in action - collaborative robots used in their manufacturing facility).
Always growing.
