Analiza sytuacji polskich przedsiębiorstw w sieciach przemysłowych w dobie Industry 4.0
Analysis of the situation of Polish enterprises in industrial networks in Industry 4.0

Summary/Abstract: The ongoing globalization process and the marginalization of Europe in the global production caused that German experts developed a new Industry 4.0. concept. A close integration of physical objects with the information network should be a part of the proposed concept which is a base of the fourth industrial revolution. Sophisticated business networks connected by intelligent resources communicating via Internet will be built. This means that today’s enterprises have new challenges to build and collaborate within cyber-physical systems. The paper attempts to identify key problems related to the functioning of Polish companies in the industrial metalworking sector (steel production, distribution, metal processing, etc.), especially according to the challenges of the fourth industrial revolution. The results of surveys conducted on a selected group of specialist production companies from the Lubuskie Voivodeship, mainly in the metal sector, are used in the paper.
