Abstract

Digitization is the backbone and major cause in the era of Industry 4.0. Manufacturing industries are in the midst of a transformation regarding the method of manufacturing processing and delivering of goods to customers. Until now the production of various goods done by the manufacturing industries uses the traditional method of old machines and human labor but looking into the plan of industry 4.0 it gives tremendous outcomes in terms of economical aspect as well as safety-wise in the long run.. In the first revolution, the manufacturing sector was mainly based on using mechanical human-operated machines which needed a lot of labors to complete the work, Second revolution is the use of mass production and assembly lines with the help of electricity. The third revolution was mainly based on advancements made in machines by introducing computers and reducing the burden on human shoulders. But now the beginning of industry 4.0 has started and many manufacturing sectors are getting benefited from this. Industry 4.0 is the automation simulation smart system based environment where Augmented reality(AR) and Virtual reality(VR) comes into play. Industry 4.0 has started to change the complete industrial experience and with the introduction of AR and VR in manufacturing sectors the profit-economy growth graph is starting to rise hence establishing a strong foundation and helping to deliver good sufficient advanced products that customer desires with the help of purely Automation and Artificial intelligence. Industry 4.0 is based on data the way it can be gathered, analyzed and deployed in the manufacturing sector with help of Augmented and Virtual reality.
