Industry 4.0
The pilot projects at our plants have proven it: The seven features below are basic requirements for Industry 4.0. Available qualifications are included under each item. Please also visit the Rexroth Learn-World online to see our growing Industry 4.0 training program.
People as key players
Digital wizards and intelligent workstation layout assist humans with context-related information and improved ergonomics. These help you increase work environment customization.

Open standards
Standards that apply to all manufacturers and platforms form the basis for horizontal and vertical networking and, with it, the smooth exchange of information in value creation networks. Bosch Rexroth's Electric Drive and Control Technology products generally come with standardized interfaces, making them ideal for Industry 4.0 systems. General training courses on these products can be found in the “Electric Drives and Controls” section of the Rexroth Training Program.

Virtual real time representation
All components and objects are represented virtually throughout the value creation process and provide real-time contextual information for continuous process improvement.
Digital life cycle management
Connecting all automation components, machines, processes, and product data to a single network from development to production, to recycling reduces development times and costs. It also ensures that all components are designed to suit the application.

Secure value creation networks
Openness and networking should not pose a risk for smart manufacturing. Security in Industry 4.0 includes protecting humans from hazards created by machines and protecting production resources and company IT from attacks and disruptions from the outside. This means securing sensitive data, as well as preventing intentional and unintentional failures.
