ABSTRACT: Industry 4.0 can be summarized as
adding value to human life by combining advanced research in the fields of
biology, technology and industrial automation to improve the living conditions
of today. Now, we are faced with systems that operate on their own and
communicate with their environment. In this context, it can be said that
Industry 4.0 opens a new era (Boschrexroth, 2017). The term Industry 4.0 takes its meaning from the combination of
significant innovations in digital technology, biology and hardware automation (CGI, 2016). The cyber systems used today can make simple decisions on their own.
They are connected to each other in cyber space and can communicate through the
Internet of Things (IoT). In business life, the ability to solve urgent
problems in a short time is important (Del Mar Rodriguez Masdefiol & Stavmo, 2016; Doleitte, 2017). Cyber physical systems are able to make
their own decision or physically support people in a number of jobs that are
not possible for people. From health to environmental services, from
agriculture to the weather forecast area and all other production facilities, cyber
systems are located in each area, and self-deciding systems are activated. Get
more power, lighter weight, quicker interventions etc. to improve the
properties of materials and the processes (Donanimgunlugu, 2015; Endustri40, 2018a; Endustri40, 2018b; Engineering, 2016). In this study, applications performed in
manual systems were compared with automatic
processes within Industry 4.0. According to the results obtained from the
study, glazing errors encountered in manual systems are not found in automatic
systems. The continuity of the works carried out within the scope of automation
is also reflected in the numbers. Although there are more transactions, fewer
errors are made. The quality of the operations directly affects the final
product quality. This situation positively affects the health of employees (Industry4Magazine,
2017).
