our world is constantly changing the internet of things and services expedites Innovations faster than ever before what seemed like a distant future some years ago is today's reality we Face the fourth Industrial Revolution due to the means of digital interconnections at the Bak plant we hold the ideal starting position for the implementation of Industry 4.0 already today we operate a standardized production network with 11 plants and more than 5,000 machines worldwide due to our standardized machines from our in-house Special Machine building unit we're able to draw on over 15 years of experience in the field
of interconnected production here processes arise which will change the World of Tomorrow the full automation of our flow of material through Technologies such as RFID and mems streamlines our logistic processes and reduces stocks simultaneously we create transparency along the entire value stream in real time our tools know their Optimum lifetime because of methodical analyses and measurements they are subject to standardized maintenance processes and guarantee 100% traceability in our constant effort to improve we access automatically created analyses and evaluations this way we can focus on what is important the availability of our machines they can detect
Trends and Report critical developments onto the operating Personnel before output losses occur occurring interferences are being linked to already known error patterns recommendations for Action are derived from these patterns and enable our Personnel on site to act as skilled problem solvers at the same time the feedback of the operator creates a closed control Loop and a worldwide knowledge database in the case of previously unknown complications we immediately contact centrally organized experts via live image thereby we save crucial response time which benefits the production and can in turn be used for the maintenance of the worldwide
knowledge database the ability of our machines to communicate with each other allows for a flexible reaction to production parameters of Upstream processes the inspection efforts in the final assembly phase are thereby reduced flexibility and an awareness of upcoming changes are essential and inevitable each individual is being thoroughly prepared for this development and receives the support needed in the form of individual Training Concepts and a confident and reliable management culture in all of this we pursue one clear objective ensuring the future of our sites and thereby the future of our employees because there are some things
you simply cannot [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] copy
