ABSTRACT

Although the concept of Industry 5.0 is still in its early stages, there are emerging signs indicating its potential direction. While Industry 4.0 primarily focuses on integrating digital technologies and automation into manufacturing processes, Industry 5.0 is anticipated to highlight collaboration and interaction between humans and machines. This represents a human-centered approach to manufacturing, where advanced technologies enhance human capabilities, fostering more meaningful and sustainable work.

This perspective forms the foundation for a novel, sustainable and resilient digital factory concept. In this context, artificial intelligence, digital technologies, and collaborative robotics will establish a reliable human-machine coevolution relationship, leading to high-performance, inclusive, and sustainable human-machine working systems.
