„Smart Factory“ - The Central Element of
Industry 4.0
In the Smart
Factory people,
machines and
resources
communicate
naturally as in a
social network.
n  In a Smart Factory intelligent products are clearly identifiable
and locatable at any time.
n  The Smart Factory links value chain networks in real time.
n  The Smart Factory manages complexity of intelligent systems,
increases efficiency of production and and is also robust against
disturbances.

Potentials with Industry 4.0 for an energy
efficient production
n  A semiconductor manufacturing consumes
Production Infineon
100 GWh and more per year 1).
n  More than 60% of the energy consumption is
related to process tools, chillers and supply
air fans
n  This potential can only be developed by
having robust and demand oriented
steering mechanisms!

Energy Efficiency Potentials through
Industry 4.0
Today
Industry 4.0
n  Robust media supply for
challenging process tools and
manufacturing processes
n  Robust and demand oriented
media supply for the
challenging process tools and
manufacturing processes
n  Limited transparency of
energy and media
consumption of the single
equipment, e.g. pumps are
running with constant speed
n  Only a few machines share
the same supply aggregates
n  Real-time Information of
energy consumption for
supply aggregates (e.g.
chiller)
n  Retrofitting of existing e.g.
chillers with the ad-hoc
connectivity capability and
demand oriented steering
mechanisms
n  new Services could develop
„pay per use“ e.g. cooling

Industry 4.0 offers immense potentials for us, for us
as semiconductor supplier and for our factories!
However: Several challenges need to be solved to move towards Industry 4.0
Smart Factories need to be stable and beneficial.
Know-how needs to be secured successfully.
Company 1
Company 2
Tool 1
Security
Tool 2
Tool 3
Tool 4
Manufacturing tools are linked together internally and
externally. Therefore they need to be protected from
manipulation.
The Smart Factory needs to be able to control
complexity and to be robust against dysfunctions.
Deployment of Industry 4.0 will only be successful within
collaboration networks: e.g. Politics, Institutions,
Research, SMEs
