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).
