Abstract – With the advent of the fourth industry
revolution (Industry 4.0) manufacturing systems are
transformed into digital system. In this
transformation Big Data and IoT ( Internet of
Things) play a major role. Exponential growth in
data volume originating from IoT and information
services drives the industry to develop new models
and distributed tools to handle Big Data. Industry
4.0 is a trending technology concept for automation
in manufacturing that employs the IoT, thus
creating the smart Industries. The basic idea behind
this paper is to show the adoption of IoT and new
data driven (Big Data) strategies in current
ecosystem (Digitalize system).
Applied to industrial manufacturing in Industrie 4.0, this
will open up entirely new worlds of production. The
outcome will be platforms that flexibly control and
autonomously optimize production processes and adapt
them to external influences.
Machines affected by Industrie 4.0 and the Internet
of Things will become increasingly sensitive, more
autonomous, more mobile and easier to operate. Soon,
robots will be intelligent enough to understand our language
and gestures. Below image show the evolution of industry
automation with different technology. Industry 4.0 includes
Advanced robotics, Internet of Things, Big Data.

Internet of Things (IoT). IoT data comes from a variety of
sources that can be classified into (1) machine-based (e.g., manufacturing and is a major theme for industrial
environmental, weather, technology development. To assist manufacturers in
air quality, water quality, flows, traffic speeds, people flows maintaining a competitive edge in operational management
and GPS location) or (2) people-based (e.g., social media, control and in improving their production efficiency and

for the epitaxial process and a wide range of semiconductor
and machining applications. An intelligent/smart factory
operates using advanced sensors and information
technologies thus, large amounts of data are generated and
collected in a smart factory, requiring big data processing
technology to build an integrated environment in which the
production process can be represented transparently and
controlled and managed in a more efficient way. industrial
big data is regarded having “5V” characteristics, that is,
volume, velocity, variety, veracity, value, which much
challenged the utilization of traditional signal processing
techniques to analyze industrial big data. The “5V” features
of industrial big data make it possible to provide
comprehensive and systematic information through data
mining and knowledge discovery. Data mining technologies
are used to discover the following information:
• Equipment design defects
• Product design defects
• Equipment health conditions
• Production processing defects
• Staff behavior and work habits
An accuracy of up to 100% and false alarm rates of less than
6.58% have been achieved in the prediction of next-run
failure of components along the line. The algorithm also
achieves 100% accuracy and 3.51% false alarm rate in
predicting the quality (Go/No Go) of the workpiece next in
line. This intelligent solution for the manufacturing sector
can nurture information service
III. Role of IoT in Industry 4.0
In Industry 4.0 Internet of Things is known as Industrial
Internet of Things (IIoT). The industrial internet of things
(IIoT) is the use of smart sensors and actuators to enhance
manufacturing and industrial processes. Also known as the
industrial internet or Industry 4.0, IIoT leverages the power
of smart machines and real-time analytics to take advantage
of the data that dumb machines have produced in industrial
settings for years. The driving philosophy behind IIoT is that
smart machines are not only better than humans at capturing
and analyzing data in real time, they are better at
communicating important information that can be used to
drive business decisions faster and more accurately.

Figure 2 shows all the application and sources of Big Data.

Before manufacturing begins, smart production planning is
conduct in consideration of manufacturing resources data.
Based on the relationship of the global data (e.g., available
resources and capacities information, material data,
technological parameters, and constraints), the global and
optimized planning program could be rapidly generated,
improving the planning speed and accuracy.
