Excerpt

After increasing its sales of Industry 4.0 applications to a total of more than 1.5 billion euros over the past four years, Bosch is now aiming to reach an annual sales mark of 1 billion euros by the year 2022. The company began work on connectivity solutions to better link production and logistics back in 2012. Given the solid growth it has seen in its Industrial Technology Division, the strategy appears to be bearing fruit. Indeed, the preliminary figures indicate that the division's sales grew by 8.9 % (or 11 % when adjusted for exchange rates) in the past year, while its earnings increased to 7.4 billion euros. "Industry 4.0 pays off. Digital and connected solutions are making factories more efficient, more flexible, and more productive," says Rolf Najork, Member of the Board of Management at Robert Bosch GmbH and responsible for the company's Industrial Technology Division. For instance, the facility in Blaichach, Germany, was able to boost its production of ABS and ESP units by 200 % over the past six years thanks to the targeted use of modern production technologies - and that without plant expansions or acquisitions.
