There is a seismic shift happening in the manufacturing industry as it advances towards Industry 4.0, according to a new report by Ericsson. The telecommunications technology company recently launched its Connected Manufacturing report, which explores challenges the industry is up against and how smart solutions will be “key in helping manufacturers gearing up for Industry 4.0”. Specifically, the report offers a deep-dive analysis of five high-value use cases and technologies that address the most imminent points in the industry. Individually these use cases all create a healthy return on investment and streamline operations for factory owners. However, when all five are deployed and working together, their combined ROI will reach 116 percent by year five. It will also create a system that is more agile, reliable and efficient. Key use cases detailed in the report include: Autonomous mobile robots (AMR) for real-time production chain automation: 46 percent of the value of AMRs comes from forklift operators being freed up to do other tasks in the factory; Collaborative robots (cobots) for more efficient operations: customers today expect zero defects. To accomplish this goal, manufacturers must inspect 100 percent of the products they make and cobots offer a new set of eyes; Augmented Reality (AR): AR can make an enormous difference in quality inspections. In fact, with AR, service experts can support local inspectors remotely, reducing their travel-related CO2 impact by 50 percent. The ROI on AR in year five is 68 percent; Asset condition monitoring for increased uptime: Asset condition monitoring keeps equipment in good shape while preventing over-maintenance and the premature replacement of parts. As a result, manufacturers can reduce the number of spare parts required by 10 percent and employees can cut down on the amount of repetitive work they would normally have to do; and Digital twins for optimized operations: Digital twins can produce useable insights for both process and factory, giving manufacturers full control to implement change. Thirty percent of executives believe a digital twin would reduce costs.

As an excellent partner of the summit, ABB attended the event with a full series of Smart City solutions. James Zhao, lead business manager for ABB Electrification in China delivered a keynote speech in WAIC- Intelligent Trending Forum, sharing the industry with ABB's leading technologies and achievements in smart cities and long-term vision for a sustainable future. With the theme of "Intelligent World, Indivisible Community", the 2020 WAIC attracted scientists and entrepreneurs worldwide to discuss hot topics related to cutting-edge technologies and industrial trends in the intelligence field. In the future, the global population will continue to grow, and the urbanization process will further accelerate. The United Nations estimates that the global population will reach 9 billion by 2040, and 2/3 of the people will live in cities. It will generate great challenges to the resources, energy supply, transportation and environment in cities. How to acquire and use energy more efficiently, build a green and convenient transportation system, and create more comfortable life for people have become the core issues of building smart cities in the future. With this in mind, ABB always strives to help build safe, comfortable, efficient and sustainable smart cities. James Zhao, lead business manager for ABB Electrification in China, said, “ABB electrical solutions can provide reliable support for various application scenarios such as distribution grids, data centers, buildings, and transport in smart cities, realizing the optimal use of resources and real-time response on the demand and supply side, enhancing the energy utilization, empowering new infrastructure construction, and accelerating the process towards smart cities, with the aid of the Internet of Things (IOT), big data, and artificial intelligence (AI) technology.” Building connected urban distribution grids Promote the development of smart buildings E-mobility towards “Mission to Zero” The transportation industry is the second largest source of greenhouse gases in the world and has a huge impact on the air quality of cities. E-mobility is an effective way to meet this challenge. As a leading enterprise in electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure, ABB entered the EV charging market as early as 2010. At present, ABB can provide end-to-end closed-loop solutions in the field of e-mobility to meet various needs from distribution systems, charg...

The United Arab Emirates' historic first mission to Mars is under way, after a successful lift-off in Japan. The Hope probe launched on an H2-A rocket from Tanegashima spaceport, and is now on a 500-million-km journey to study the planet's weather and climate. Two previous attempts to launch the probe in the past week had to be called off because of adverse weather. Hope's arrival in February 2021 is set to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the UAE's formation. Her Excellency Sarah Al Amiri, the science lead on Hope, spoke of her excitement and relief in seeing the rocket climb successfully into the sky. And she stated the impact on her country would be the same as that on America when its people watched the Apollo 11 Moon landing 51 years ago, also on 20 July. "It was an anchor for an entire generation that stimulated everyone that watched it to push further and to dream bigger," she told BBC News. "Today I am really glad that the children in the Emirates will wake up on the morning of the 20th of July having an anchor project of their own, having a new reality, having new possibilities, allowing them to further contribute and to create a larger impact on the world." The UAE craft is one of three missions heading to Mars this month. The US and China both have surface rovers in the late stages of preparation. The American mission, Perseverance, sent its congratulations to Hope. "I cannot wait to join you on the journey!" its Twitter account said. Why is the UAE going to Mars? The UAE has limited experience of designing and manufacturing spacecraft - and yet here it is attempting something only the US, Russia, Europe and India have succeeded in doing. But it speaks to the Emiratis' ambition that they should dare to take on this challenge. Their engineers, mentored by American experts, have produced a sophisticated probe in just six years - and when this satellite gets to Mars, it's expected to deliver novel science, revealing fresh insights on the workings of the planet's atmosphere. In particular, scientists think it can add to our understanding of how Mars lost much of its air and with it a great deal of its water. The Hope probe is regarded very much as a vehicle for inspiration - something that will attract more young people in the Emirates and across the Arab region to take up the sciences in school and in higher education. The satellite is one of a number of projects the UAE government says signals its intention to move the country away from a dependence on oil and gas and towards a future based on a knowledge economy. But as ever when it comes to Mars, the risks are high. A half of all missions sent to the Red Planet have ended in failure. Hope project director, Omran Sharaf, recognises the dangers but insists his country is right to try. "This is a research and development mission and, yes, failure is an option," he told BBC News. "However, failure to progress as a nation is not an option. And what matters the most here is the capacity...

This summer’s update to Plantweb Optics will include augmented reality capabilities to help users locate troublesome assets and correct issues with the aid of experts via real-time collaboration. Emerson Automation Solutions’ Plantweb Optics is an asset performance platform designed for managing industrial asset health using information from multiple sources, such as process data, diagnostics and alerts, and other software dedicated to a class of assets. The platform is designed to help users visualize, analyze, and predict asset performance. Peter Zorno, CTO, Emerson Automation SolutionsPeter Zornio, chief technology officer at Emerson Automation Solutions explained that Plantweb Optics generates “an automatic asset health score that lets you know—based on all the data collected—what the health of that asset is. If the asset is not operating, it provides you with recommended actions.” Version 1.6 of Plantweb Optics is set for release in summer 2020 and will include augmented reality (AR) capabilities for locating and assessing assets and enabling real-time collaboration with experts. Having this data integrated into an asset management system means you can execute work orders based on direct insights from the assets, said Zornio. Anna Velena, product manager at Emerson Automation Solutions, says the new AR capabilities in Plantweb Optics provides users with situational awareness through the use of relevant IoT data from devices to help them navigate to and locate specific assets by overlaying AR data on devices. This AR data displays the current status of those assets and helps users understand what problems a specific asset may have. “Instead of searching for this information, Plantweb Optics provides that information with just a few clicks,” she said. “It also includes live remote assistance for real-time collaboration with subject matter experts wherever they may be. See the video below for an explanation of how augmented reality is connected to Plantweb Optics’ workflows and real-time collaboration features. Anna Velena, product manager, Emerson Automation Solutions Velena added that setup of Plantweb Optics AR is intuitive and does not require an inordinate amount of time. The AR functionality “uses data already in Plantweb Optics,” she said. “So setup just requires pointing your mobile device at plant floor devices and identifying them properly for the system to connect them to the device’s underlying data already in system.” Some Emerson customers have already been testing this new version of Plantweb Optics with AR capabilities. Based on these early use cases, Velena noted that Emerson estimates it can help users save up to $90,000 a year and deliver return on investment (ROI) in about 6 months. Emerson has made an ROI calculator available online so you can estimate your potential savings.

This is supposed to be a busy time of year for Bollywood. School exams are over and Hollywood's summer blockbusters are typically still a couple of months away, making it the perfect time to release India's big spring flicks. Instead, the coronavirus pandemic has brought the world's most prolific film industry to a halt. Movie theaters have shut their doors, production companies have called off shoots, and film studios have delayed releases — including the debuts of at least two major films that were expected to carry the season. The highly anticipated action film "Sooryavanshi" and the cricket biopic "83," the latter of which tells the story of India's 1983 World Cup victory, were both pushed back for "health and safety" reasons. The producers did not say when they would be released. "The films were huge," said Shubhra Gupta, film critic for the Indian Express newspaper. "There was a huge deal of anticipation from the audiences. It's a big loss." The pandemic has likely cost India's film industry more than $330 million in lost box office revenue and canceled production shoots, according to Komal Nahta, a film trade analyst and television host of "ETC Bollywood Business." A 'cascading effect' on films More than 1,800 movies were produced in India in 2018, according to Statista, a research and data website. That was more than any other country's film industry that year. While Hindi-language Bollywood films dominate the industry, there are other significant players, including the regional hub Tollywood (Telugu language), along with films made in Marathi, Bhojpuri and Bengali. All told, box office revenue in India was estimated to have reached $1.4 billion in 2019, a nearly 12% increase over the year before, according to an annual report published by the consulting firm Ormax Media. Most of that came from Indian films; Hollywood represented just 15% of that amount. Film producers in India don't just want to please their Indian fans, either. Some of the biggest names in Bollywood, including Shah Rukh Khan, Akshay Kumar and Deepika Padukone, help the industry rake in revenue from audiences around the world. Last year, for example, the action thriller "War" took in $13.7 million overseas, about a quarter of its total box office haul.

The UK must avoid lurching from the coronavirus crisis into a deeper climate crisis, the government’s advisers have warned. They recommend that ministers ensure funds earmarked for a post-Covid-19 economic recovery go to firms that will reduce carbon emissions. They say the public should work from home if possible; and to walk or cycle. And investment should prioritise broadband over road-building, the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) says. People should also be encouraged to save emissions by continuing to consult GPs online. The government will reply later, although the Energy Secretary Alok Sharma has already spoken in favour of a green recovery to the recession.
