Pinar Köse Kulacz, Innovation Director at Arçelik Global explains 5G smart factory digitalization and sustainability at Turkey’s first 5G-ready private wireless network which provides the platform for Arcelik to accelerate its digital transformation and implementation of Industry 4.0 use cases. Arçelik is a Turkish multinational household appliances manufacturer who selected the Nokia Digital Automation Cloud solution to quickly benefit from increased security, flexibility, and variety of applications. The manufacturing automation use cases explored during the video encompass how the network delivers pervasive, reliable low-latency coverage throughout the facility to enhance automated guided vehicle (AGV) performance. With AGVs used throughout the manufacturing process for component logistics, improved connectivity will enhance AGV speed, control and operational efficiency. Nokia and Arcelik plan further collaboration in order to develop and implement additional use cases in the mid-term. The network will support high-accuracy indoor positioning for real-time asset location tracking as well as enabling new video analytics-based applications for site safety and security. Further potential use cases include augmented and virtual reality, digital twins, inventory control, safety and facility management, quality control, high-resolution video for remote inspection, and facility-wide voice and video communication.
