Twenty years back, machines were basic, and work in industries was, generally, manual in nature. Machines were intended to be physically controlled. Today, if individuals search for around them will discover numerous things have the control frameworks, which are important to compose the perplexing gadgets. The control framework is of essential significance for gadgets and machines in processing plants, airplane, vehicles, and even in some home gadgets. Today, it is hard for individuals to evade the utilization of control frameworks in the work place. Without mechanized control frameworks, industrial facilities face numerous issues, which would somehow or another be extremely elusive an answer for. Keeping this in mind, The study is an attempt to understand the concept of PLC and its different modes of communication viz-a-viz wired and wireless. Wired communication includes RS485 and Profinet mode, while in Wireless communication IWLAN is used. At present, wired communication is used by MANY MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES. Wired communication is expensive and space consuming, so the industries should plan to divert themselves into wireless communication to meet the requirements of technological advancement as well as to embark into INDUSTRY 4.0.

If we compare wireless communication over wired communication, wireless communication offer more advantages when compared to wired communication such as lower cost, fast deployment, higher flexibility & scalability and mobile nature of system communicated wirelessly. In Industrial automation, industrial communication has very challenging requirements like packet deadline, low transmission jitter, etc. In some places wired communication is only accepted and it cannot be replaced by wireless communication. Industrial applications also run more flexible requirements applications such as email, Video content or any other application. Those services are known as Best Effort (BE) services. In order to do both the industrial application and BE services we have proposed Zigbee communication together with the IEEE 802.11 standard in this article along with comparison between the two standards using physical layer solutions. This Zigbee communication is performed using a industrial automation design and it leads to less power consumption. Result and analysis in terms of real time services is left as a future work in this paper. It is proposed that through Zigbee solution it is possible to obtain better result in certain cases than those achieved using IEEE 802.11 standards.

Abstract Nowadays, spectrum in industrial radio systems is already overoccupied. Therefore, future Industry 4.0 applications require coexistence management of different wireless communication systems. For identification of active systems, we propose Compressed Edge Spectrum Sensing (CESS). Here, we focus on practical aspects and show that the sampling rate can still be highly reduced.

Abstract Lean manufacturing practices focus on minimizing all forms of waste from the production system. The applicability of lean manufacturing concepts and principles has often been questioned in sectors including aerospace manufacturing primarily due to their high variety - low volume environments. The key challenges include the difficulty in changing the factory layout, lack of plant-specific manufacturing strategies, lack of benchmarking between manufacturing plants and non-existence of learning through experimentation culture. Consequently, the aerospace manufacturing industries have struggled to implement lean principles over the years successfully. Industry 4.0 is a new paradigm that is significantly influencing several manufacturing industries across the globe. Applying the concepts of Industry 4.0 along with the conventional lean transformation technology could potentially address these challenges. The focus of this research is to study the possibilities of integrating Industry 4.0 tools with existing lean manufacturing philosophies within the aerospace manufacturing sector in order to improve various aspects of manufacturing processes in a cyber-physical environment. A case study is performed considering a quality inspection department in a typical aerospace industry. The case study is simulated using discrete event simulation tool — Arena. The study found that a hybrid approach involving the holistic merger of the lean principles along with the Industry 4.0 tools known as Lean Industry 4.0 is the best way forward for the aerospace manufacturing sector. The outcomes of this research provide an understanding of the role of industry 4.0 paradigm and their implementation in several other high-technology and high-risk manufacturing sectors including life sciences, space, and defense industries.
