Blockchain, the Emerging Platform for Manufacturing 4.0
File Type: Document, Infographic
https://www.blockchainresearchinstitute.org/project/blockchain-the-emerging-platform-for-manufacturing-4-0/
Jan 29, 2018 - This research paper explains how distributed ledgers will serve as open platforms for the fourth industrial revolution, enabling the integration of additive manufacturing, augmented reality, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and big data analytics across supply chains, from design and sourcing to delivery and usage. It illustrates the concepts of smart products, smart factories, digital end-to-end engineering, and mass customization through use cases.
Additive Manufacturing and Blockchain
File Type: Document, Infographic
https://www.blockchainresearchinstitute.org/project/additive-manufacturing-and-blockchain/
Sep 22, 2018 - This case study looks at MOOG VeriPart, a shared database providing provenance and authenticity per part. Combined with blockchain, additive manufacturing could provide on-demand manufacturing networks for high quality rapid prototyping, start-ups with limited capital access, customized “quantity of one” production runs, and spare parts printed on demand at the point of use.
Introducing Asset Chains
File Type: Document, Infographic, Video
https://www.blockchainresearchinstitute.org/project/introducing-asset-chains/
Nov 28, 2017 - With case studies on Moog, Merck, and Sweetbridge, this project uncovers how to optimize supply chains for greater responsiveness and transparency with confidentiality, achieve network scale and efficiency, and approach autonomous supply chain functions with the industrial Internet of Things.
Foxconn 4.0
File Type: Document, Infographic
https://www.blockchainresearchinstitute.org/project/foxconn-4-0/
Oct 23, 2017 - Foxconn is among the first manufacturers to implement blockchain technology in its supply chain. This project looks at Chained Finance, which consists of a procurement market and the handling of logistics, accounting, inventory, finance, and sales functions. Participants’ visibility into orders and the movement of assets enables them to provide trade finance and short-term loans to tier 2 and tier 3 suppliers as needed and at better rates than the traditional financial system.
The Ledger of Every Thing
File Type: Document, Infographic
https://www.blockchainresearchinstitute.org/project/the-ledger-of-every-thing/
Nov 22, 2017 - This project explores the intersection of Internet of Things and blockchain as a means of securing transactions among objects, realizing efficiencies, establishing appropriate boundaries between public and private, and developing strategies for business leaders across industry. It maps out the typical architecture of an IoT deployment in terms of connectivity, identity, sensing, and actuation. The author walks through the challenges of centralized and decentralized IoT designs, from scalability, latency, and transaction costs to privacy, durability, and interoperability of systems.
