Sustainable Automated Production Systems: Industry 4.0 Models and Techniques
About this ebook
Sustainable Automated Production Systems: Industry 4.0 Models and Techniques includes the modern technologies of Industry 4.0 and discusses automated systems, robotic production, sustainable automation, production process automation, and the use of IoT in production. It goes over the circular economy and automated production processes and presents theories and practices associated with mathematical models of process automation in sustainable production. The book also investigates how sustainability in automated production systems using the IoT can present unique circumstances when pandemics or other disruptions are involved.
The book includes chapters presenting sustainable production models and automated production using Industry 4.0 technologies and is targeted to help both practitioners and academics.
