CLPA aims to play a role in the transformation of smart factories today, when Industry 5.0 is being talked about. Industry 4.0, which includes production technologies, a series of modern automation systems and communication protocols that provide data exchange, is positioned as the main force dominating smart factory systems. This revolution, which reveals the power of data in production, and most importantly, built on the speed, flexibility and security of communication systems, is undergoing a change in the face of the dynamics of the 21st century. Industry 5.0, which has entered our lives very recently, represents the concept of super smart society and means that society cooperates with technology. In ensuring this cooperation, communication technologies have a great role to play in Industry 4.0 as well as in Industry 5.0.
Industrial communication systems, which are at the forefront of cyber-physical production systems, manage to play a decisive role among the revolutions in the industry. Industrial communication protocols such as CC-Link, which aims to transform factories into smart production facilities, are also in an important place for Industry 5.0, which is gaining more and more importance. Cyber-physical systems that will provide data flow continue to be the actors of this new revolution, as machine-human interaction will be more critical than ever in Industry 4.0, which is the next stage of Industry 5.0 and is defined as a society-oriented technology revolution. Japan-based CLPA (CC-Link Partner Association), operating in the field of industrial communication, continues to guide companies on their Industry 4.0 journeys as well as Industry 5.0, with the latest industrial communication protocols.
Fast communication will be very important in the cooperation of human and intelligent systems
Industry 5.0, unlike Industry 4.0, focuses on the cooperation of people and smart systems instead of focusing entirely on smart systems, and positions people at a different point. Industry 5.0, which is based on the optimization of human and intelligent systems instead of the optimization of intelligent systems, sees machines as a collaborator that increases human performance. Most importantly, it takes a more holistic perspective and encompasses all systems such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data and Artificial Intelligence (AI). With the support of artificial intelligence, the power of data is revealed once again in this movement, which aims to cooperate as well as communicate between humans and intelligent systems. That's why seamless communication is of paramount importance in the era of the social smart factory, where cobots communicate with humans. Industry 5.0, which can be integrated into every field from production to social processes, aims to allow all relevant processes to operate uninterrupted and end-to-end thanks to the secure and efficient infrastructure of communication systems.
Aims to play a role in the construction of social smart factories
Companies and organizations serving the society need to find suitable industrial network technologies within the scope of their digitalization strategies for Industry 5.0. At this stage, CLPA, an expert organization in its field, helps manufacturers grow by meeting their ever-changing needs in industrial automation with both its experience and products. Most importantly, it keeps human intuition and problem-solving skills within the ecosystem by making the production perspective suitable for human and machine cooperation. Supporting companies in their digitalization journeys from industrial communication to Ethernet for many years, CLPA draws attention as the pioneer of change and transformation in Industry 4.0 as well as in 5.0 with its future technology Time Sensitive Network (TSN-Time Sensitive Network). Its newest open technology, CC-Link IE TSN, combines innovative Time Sensitive Network (TSN) technology with gigabit Ethernet and can process high volumes of data generated by sensors and models in cyber-physical systems. These two key elements provide businesses with a great opportunity to transition from existing automation solutions to the technology of the future, while helping them to run their existing processes with high level of compatibility. Within the scope of Industry 5.0, which is the revolution of tomorrow, it aims to take a role in the construction of social smart factories by providing seamless communication between human and cyber-physical production systems components.
