2. Industry 4.0 German
Industry 4.0 is a name of current trend of automation and data exchange in manufacturing
technologies includes Cyber-Physical System (CPS), Internet of Things, Cloud computing and
Cognitive computing. Other name than Industry 4.0 is called “smart factory” within the modular
structure smart factories, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) monitor physical processes, create a
virtual copy of the physical world. In future, businesses will establish global networks that
incorporate their machinery, warehousing systems and production facilities in the shape of
Cyber-Physical System (CPS). In the manufacturing environment, these Cyber-Physical Systems
(CPS) comprise smart machines, storage systems and production facilities capable of
autonomously exchanging information, triggering actions and controlling each other
independently. This facilities fundamentalimprovements to the industrial processes involved in
manufacturing, engineering, material usage and supply chain. Next, in German industry, The
Industry 4.0 will upgrade Germany’s industrial capabilities with trade flows becoming
increasingly internationally interlinked, automation, more flexible processes as well as horizontal
and vertical integration are becoming more important features in a modern, competitive
production structure. Beside that, Germany in particular especially in fundamental features will
find that “Industry 4.0” (integrated industry) provides a major long term opportunity for the
country to consolidate its leading position in the global marketplace, even againstits fast-growing
emerging market competitors. Germany has been remain an industrial heavyweight, creating one-
third of the EU’s value added. German firms create one-third of the EU’s total industrial value
added. A long way behind comes Italy, followed by France, the UK and Spain. Since in other
countries the value added share is steadily on the decline, Germany should retain its leading
position as the industrial backbone of the EU for the foreseeable future. Furthermore, The
potential for upgrading industry is particularly pronounced in Germany. Industry 4.0 can
progress if there is close exchange between the fields of electronics, electrical engineering,
mechanical engineering and IT. With this approach Germany has special strengths as the
“factory outfitter of the world”. Lastly, these strengths are based on the country’s good general
education system, its established development partnerships between suppliers and users, its
market leadership in plant and mechanical engineering, its strong and dynamic SMEs and its
position as the leading innovator in automation methods.

Are we, Malaysian’s ready for Industry 4.0 ?
The Industry 4.0 is the next phase in the digitization of the manufacturing sector and it will take
manufacturing to the next level by increasing productivity as well as lowering costs for
companies. A public-private sector initiativein Malaysia is set to take locally-based companies
into this new reality, via training employees of industries, as well as students pursuing their
studies at local universities and polytechnics. More than 500 people have been trained to date,
comprising mid-level managers in industries, university undergraduates in the third or fourth
years of their degree, as well as pre-diploma polytechnic students, who are later given internships
with companies after their training. So, through my thinking by looking the Malaysian nowadays,
the probability to archive Industry 4.0 is possible and we should make improvement everyday as
soon as we wake up from sleep. The answer is ‘Yes’ we Malaysia are ready for Industry 4.0. We
must always be ready at any challenge that we will through from another competitor by any
chance to archive the leading countries.
