AIRMATICS: INDUSTRY 4.0 AND IIOT
A connected air compressor system for the industry of the future.
It is said that humanity is on the brink of a fourth industrial revolution.
The first industrial revolution was kicked off by the introduction of the steam engine, a clever device designed to create mechanical energy through the use of water vapour. The second industrial revolution was ushered by new technologies like electricity and new concepts like the industrial production line. Then, a third industrial revolution came about when electronic systems, like the PLC, and information technologies were introduced in the late 1960’s that could help further the automation of production.
Today, a fourth industrial revolution is looming with the introduction of “cyber-physical” systems that exist both in the real world and in cyberspace.

The “industrial internet of things”, or IIoT for short, is a vision of a very near future where all physical industrial devices and machinery are interconnected through the internet cloud.
