GO BEYOND: Industry 4.0. Always a step ahead.
The fourth industrial revolution is changing our world every day. It’s a continuous and essential development. The foundation for a networked smart factory during this revolution is paved with intelligent sensors. We are at your side, empowering the transformation of data into insight. We will take the next step together with you. Always a step ahead.
Flexible, transparent and competent. Forward thinking Industry 4.0
An intelligent sensor alone does not start a revolution. Only the combination of competence and courage can pave the way. We help you tame the data in your production and logistics processes and have it work for you. Extracting information from a network and turning it into a competitive advantage is our specialty. We will work with you to develop complete solutions that push the limits of what is technically possible. The spectrum ranges from flexible production to monitoring, from run time visualization to predictive maintenance and from artificial intelligence applications to SICK AppSpace for tailor-made sensor solutions.
Go beyond together with us.

Industry 4.0 with sensor intelligence from SICK
The fourth industrial revolution in focus
The data-based, networked, and autonomous value creation chain in production and logistics is the culmination of recent technological innovation.
To the fourth industrial revolution
Networking and digitization in production
The nature of communication is changing. In transparent production processes, machines communicate both with one another as well as directly over the Ethernet or in the cloud via intelligent sensors. This allows the Smart Factory to become a reality.
Sensor intelligence in the Smart Factory
A Smart Factory is a prerequisite for Industry 4.0. Every sensor, every machine, and every human involved can communicate with and among one another at any time. This enables the development of completely new applications.
Data sovereignty and data security
Production data is a valuable asset for every company. Providing protection against data manipulation and defining how further processing is controlled are strategies which are part of the system solutions from SICK at the beginning of the networked value creation chain.
