This edition discusses the digital transformation in manufacturing, with a strong emphasis on Industry 4.0 and the emerging Industry 5.0. A central theme is the widespread adoption and critical importance of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) for enhancing efficiency, productivity, and quality control across various industrial sectors, including pharmaceuticals, automotive, and semiconductors. These advancements are frequently facilitated by digital twins, which allow for virtual simulation and optimisation of processes and products, and are underpinned by robust data management and connectivity solutions like 5G and Industrial IoT (IIoT). Several sources highlight the significance of human factors, stressing that people, culture, and trust are as crucial as technology for successful implementation, and that addressing workforce challenges through reskilling and AI-powered tools is vital for future factories.
