Resume—. The study carried out in this research has as objective
to know the technological advance and the future of the production
of some good is the industry 4.0, we will analyze that this type of
industry, as it is conformed and what is its function, at the end of
this research work our own conclusions and we will give our point
of view of this type of industry of the future.
Index of terms - steam engine, electronics, computer science,
robotics, industry 4.0, automation, processes.
I. INTRODUCTION
The industry since its inception is one of the fundamental pillars
that sustain the economy of countries, cities or states where it
was involved, this presented a series of solutions many of the
times right solutions to a problem facing society. The industry
is synonymous with innovation to achieve more with the
optimization of personnel, raw materials and thus obtain a
quality product.
The industry since its inception in the 80s with the discovery of
the steam engine embarked on a process of technological
maturation that over the years and with the development of
electronics and computing could have a mass production of all
right. The industry 4.0 as the finalist industry of all this step and
the one that is in process of formation combines the robotics
and the automatic processes with the wireless networks or wifi
with the sole purpose of having an optimal production process
and where the work of being Human is limited only to machine
maintenance and production supervision.[1]

II. DESCRIPTION.
A. Logístics 4.0.
The logistics sector claims to improve the current capacity of
fixed and mobile communications networks for the new
connected supply chain environment 4.0 and communication.
Therefore, it is necessary to encourage the use of applications
that take advantage of the opportunity to generate a regular flow
of information. superior to what could be available if more
traditional schemes, logistics strategies, and modes of
production were used. [2]
This type of information can be exchanged in a very fast way,
the form of change can be interim or externally through a
communication through the internet, this type of information
allows adaptations or changing situations both in the plant and
in the production chain.
B. Digital transformation in the logistics sector.
Industry 4.0 is the complete digitization of value chains through
the integration of data processing technologies, intelligent
software and sensors; from suppliers to customers to be able to
predict, control, plan and produce intelligently, which generates
greater value to the entire chain.[4]
The fourth industrial revolution driven by the digital revolution,
represents a qualitative leap in the organization and
management of the value chain of companies. The
multiplication of connectivity, the appearance of new
technologies such as cloud computing, the Internet of things,
Big Data or sensorization, offer new possibilities to industry,
and pose new challenges that must be addressed.

A. Essential technologies for the development of industry 4.0. Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality

The way of innovation towards industry 4.0 is a digital
convergence between industrial and business components; and
between the models and the internal processes of the
companies.
IIoT and Cyberphysical Systems
The concept of IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) refers to the
use of IoT technologies in industrial processes. Cyberphysical
systems are all those devices that integrate processing, storage
and communication capabilities in order to control one or more
physical processes. The Cyberphysical systems are connected
to each other and in turn connected to the global network thanks
to the IoT paradigm[5]
Additive manufacturing, 3D printing
Allows, among other things, the hyper personalization -
inherent to Industry 4.0 and the servitilization concept- does not
make the process more expensive because it allows products to
be manufactured, without penalizing the cost, regardless of
whether a certain product has to be manufactured number of
equal or different pieces. In addition, it makes it much simpler
to produce small batches of products, from small pieces of
machinery to prototypes.[7]
The greater accessibility of these technologies in recent years
has made them a useful tool for the optimization of designs,
automation of processes, control of manufacturing and
construction, training and training of workers, and maintenance
and follow-up work.[3]
C. Importance
That the purely industrial companies were outside of everything
that involves digitization and information systems is over. The
owners and CEO of these companies, no matter the size of
these, that underestimate the phenomenon will encounter
unpleasant situations. Not because I expected a scenario similar
to the industries of media, music, publishing, transport or
logistics. [1]
If not because Industry 4.0 will be a source of competitiveness
for western industries with: labor costs, energy costs and levels
of social commitment, much higher than their counterparts in
emerging countries. [1]

Big Data, Data Mining and Data Analytics

The amount of information that is currently stored in relation to

different processes and systems services or data traffic is huge
and unmanageable manually. The analysis of these data can
provide very valuable information about the behavior of these Figure 2. Industry timeline 1.0 to 4.0 [1]
processes; can prevent problems in a certain industrial process
through the detection of results or anomalous measures or
determine which events are related within a more complex
process facilitating their management through prediction,
What industry 4.0 offers through digitalization and
knowing in advance that one event will trigger another with
some probability.[6]
the use of connected platforms is:

Artificial Intelligence

Tools and technologies are needed that are capable of
processing in real time large volumes of information that we
extract from Big Data technologies, as well as algorithms
capable of learning autonomously from the information they
receive, regardless of the sources , and the reaction of users and
operators.[8]
Collaborative Robotics
This term defines a new generation of industrial robots that
cooperate with humans closely, without the safety constraints
required in typical industrial robotics applications. It is
characterized, among other things, by its flexibility,
accessibility, and relative ease of programming.[1]
 A capacity for constant adaptation to demand
 Serve the client in a more personalized way.
 To provide a one-to-one after-sales service
with the client.
 Design, produce and sell products in less
time.
 Add services to physical products
 Create shorter and more profitable production
series.
 Take advantage of the information for analysis
from multiple channels (CMS, SCM, CRM, FCM,
HRM, Help desk, social networks) where they can
analyze and exploit it in real time.

III. CONCLUSIONS
Industry 4.0 is an unprecedented concept that implies a
change of paradigm and that constitutes, possibly the
biggest challenge of the future facing society and
industry. The main actors at the beginning of this new
industrial era are software, networks, Big Data, the cloud,
the physical cyber world, the Augmented Reality or three-
dimensional printers that allow us to reach unthinkable
achievements a few years ago. Industry 4.0 proposes to
transform the traditional value chain by enabling new
interactions and applications that add value, reduce costs,
increase productivity and efficiency of all processes and
allow greater benefits to be achieved.
