Abstract

Several key factors influence the industrial production such as the instability of the market, the short duration of the life of the product, the individualization of the product and globalization. This means that companies must adapt to the requirements of the market by improving the technical tools. Actually the automated production systems whitin companies seem less connected against the Industry 4.0 which is based on the interconnection of machines, of products and of people. This industrial revolution also represents a desire to respond to current issues related to the principles of sustainable development such as resources management and energy. This article is intended to emphasize the importance of the strategic vision of the industrial countries to the Horizon 2030, and the relationship between the industry 4.0 and sustainable development in order to ensure the sustainability of resources and its benefit for future generations. In addition, it focuses on the main conditions to migrate from the Industry 3.0 to the Industry 4.0 based on the Internet of Objects (IoT) and the cyber physical system (CPS).
