Industry 4.0 - Components
How?
Digitization: Digitization refers to the process of
collecting and converting different types of
information into a digital format
What?
Real-time data processing: Real-time data
processing refers to the abilities of computer
systems and machines to continuously and
automatically process data and provide real-time
or near-time outputs and insights.
Industry 4.0 - Components
Where?
Cloud computing: Cloud computing refers to the
practice of using interconnected remote servers
hosted on the Internet to store, manage, and
process information.
Industry 4.0 - Components
Why?
Artificial intelligence (AI): Artificial intelligence is a
concept that refers to a computer’s ability to
perform tasks and make decisions that would
historically require some level of human
intelligence.
Industry 4.0 - Components
How?
Machine learning: Machine learning refers to the
ability that computers have to learn and improve
on their own through artificial intelligence—
without being explicitly told or programmed to do
so

India has now been ranked sixth among the world’s 10 largest
manufacturing countries.
By 2026, India is expected to be the third largest automotive market
by volume in the world
Global car majors have been ramping up investments in India to
cater to growing domestic demand
Industry 4.0 – Indian Automotive Sector
The Indian automotive industry has also taken some notable steps
towards industry 4.0
• Bajaj Auto was one of the first automotive enterprises to
initiate automation in the industry. It commenced the process
of automation in 2010, today it uses 100-120 Collaborative
Robots in its production facilities.
• Maruti Suzuki manages 7 process shops and 5 assembly lines
by around 1,700 robots
Industry 4.0 – Indian Automotive Sector
The Indian automotive industry has also taken some notable steps
towards industry 4.0
• Ford has managed to operate the assembly lines and body
shop of its Sanand Plant by 437 robots
• Hyundai has also taken steps to minimise its labour cost by
utilising over 400 robots in Sriperumbudur Plant
• The production lines of TATA consist of over 100 robots in the
Sanand Plant
