What is Industry 4.0?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The First Industrial Revolution<\/a> came about at the end of the 18th century due to the mechanisation of production. The Second Industrial Revolution began in the 19th century with the discovery of electricity<\/strong>, which paved the way for mass production. The Third Industrial Revolution<\/a> exploded at the end of the 1960s with the introduction of computers. Industry 3.0 brought with it computers, automation, robots and AI, but it lacked one key element at the forefront of Industry 4.0<\/a>: interconnectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Industry 4.0<\/a> connected a wide-reaching number of technological advancements in automation and data exchange, cloud computing, cognitive computing, AI<\/strong> and so on. The velocity in which data is exchanged is simply staggering and the paradigm shift in technological policy is breathtaking. Industry 4.0 truly does mark the beginning of the Imagination Age<\/a>.

However, even though Industry 4.0 has provided us with amazing advancements, there are still aspects we seek to improve, namely, the role of humans in industry. Machines need us to function properly<\/strong>, and even if aspects of their operations can be carried out automatically, having a real, creative human being at the core of any operation and working in synergy with machines is the optimal collaboration that Industry 4.0 just cannot provide. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\n
\n Technology alone can do nothing because machines depend on operators, programmers and maintenance. Not everything can be automated. Enter the next wave of industrial revolution: Industry 5.0. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n


The Current State of Innovation in Industry 5.0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Industry 5.0 is the ultimate partnership between intelligent humans <\/strong>and smart manufacturing machines<\/strong>. Where Industry 3.0 introduced computers and automation to the world, and Industry 4.0 interconnected these technologies together to improve efficiency and productivity, Industry 5.0 puts the focus strongly on people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It seeks to give us full creative control of the interconnected systems we developed through Industry 4.0, which will allow us to work alongside robots and smart machines. It\u2019s all about helping us to work faster, smarter and better <\/strong>by leveraging advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and big data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transformation is key as we move through these industrial revolutions. The 2021 EISR Report for Industry 5.0<\/a> states that:<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\n \n <\/use>\n <\/svg>\n \n
\n Transformation means, first of all, mainstreaming resilience, sustainability, regenerative and circular economic principles in all of its policies, and in the implementation of those policies. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Industry 5.0 is highly focused on both industry and society and will help shape the way that these are both transformed in the coming technological age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


There are several key elements to consider in Industry 5.0
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Industry 5.0 is aimed at supporting, not replacing, humans – Skynet aside, it is only natural to be a little nervous of robots and AI. The thought of people losing their jobs, economic times of hardship, and the diminishing importance of \u201chumans\u201d are all typical worries that come to mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, Industry 5.0 seeks to provide a space for humans and robots\/AI to collaborate together in order to innovate<\/strong>. It is not aimed at superseding humans, but to allow creative people to develop new technologies and ideas assisted by technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The balance between efficiency <\/strong>and productivity <\/strong>is key in Industry 5.0 – Industry 4.0 began the process of building efficiency and productivity, and Industry 5.0 seeks to truly optimise it. Marc Beulque, Vice President of Global Operations at Rogers<\/a> explained that \u201cman and machine must be interconnected to meet the manufacturing complexity of the future in dealing with increasing customisation through an optimised robotised manufacturing process.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\n
\n Industry 5.0 is inevitable – The only things you can be absolutely sure of in this life are taxes, death and the emergence of Industry 5.0. Technologies always progress and new innovations are found every day. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n

If there\u2019s a better solution to something, why not explore it? Industry 5.0 is affording us the unprecedented opportunity to develop our world in a hugely positive way. Sustainability is the cornerstone of Industry 5.0 – Industries and governments are all working to the sustainable development goals (SDGs) set out in the UN\u2019s Agenda 2030<\/a>, and funds are being allocated now to companies with strong environmental, social and governance (ESG) policies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainability is the key factor in these political policies, business models and climate control measures<\/strong> and Industry 5.0 can, and will, be the driving tool to a sustainable future. Innovation will be driven not only by performance, but its sustainable impact on industry, commerce, society and the world around us.<\/p>\n\n\n

But what are the key transformations as we move from Industry 4.0<\/a> to Industry 5.0, and what challenges might we encounter in attempting to make this transition?

One such difference between Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0 focuses on Challenge Driven Innovation (CDI)<\/a>. CDI is being used by companies and organisations all around the world to work towards solving long-term societal challenges<\/strong> to meet the sustainability goals that were set out in Agenda 2030. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It uses \u2018challenge statements\u2019 to identify key focus areas in order to solve any given challenge<\/strong>. In this manner, we can truly harness the next stage of revolution, Industry 5.0, by identifying an issue, using CDI to focus on the specifics of what the challenge is and who is involved, then use this information to make innovative changes and end up with the desirable solution. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\n
\n Industry 4.0 gave us the technological ability to make these changes, and Industry 5.0 will now afford us the innovative collaboration techniques necessary to bring about positive, accelerated transformation. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n


The Role of Industry 5.0 for a Sustainable Future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Industry 5.0 is being leveraged to create solutions across the globe. The independent expert report published in 2021, A Transformative Vision for Europe<\/a>, details how Industry 5.0 will be used to transform Europe towards fully sustainable industries, governed by systematic transformations across a wide-range of sectors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This 2021 report goes into great depth on how we can use technology born of Industry 5.0 to fight climate change and avoid the complete collapse of our biodiversity<\/strong>, to transform the lives of 8 billion humans around the world sustainably, and to build resilience into the economy that will birth new ecosystems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Climate change is a hugely topical issue in the world these days and Industry 5.0 will allow us to create sustainable, clean systems of manufacturing, transportation, logistics and energy. The EU has already entered into the European Green Deal<\/a>, which sets out the core goals of having:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
