Unveiling a Sustainable, Human-Centric Future in Industry 5.0
Mouser Electronics, a leading global distributor known for its extensive range of electronic components and advanced industrial automation solutions, has launched the latest installment in its Empowering Innovation Together (EIT) series. This chapter spotlights the transformative Industry 5.0, where a renewed focus on human welfare, sustainability, and social values reshapes the landscape of industrial technology. This evolution aims to create a more sustainable, resilient, and people-oriented industrial model by bridging cutting-edge technologies with human-centric design and ecological awareness.
In Industry 4.0, digital advancements like artificial intelligence (AI), data analytics, and machine learning revolutionized factory floors, connecting digital and physical realms. However, Industry 5.0 takes this transformation further, advocating a holistic, human-centered approach that aligns societal and environmental goals with technological innovation. As the global industrial sector moves towards Industry 5.0, Mouser’s EIT series examines the blend of robotics, AI-driven systems, and smart machinery that will lead the next wave of innovation.
Through The Tech Between Us podcast, guest host Mark Patrick, Mouser’s Director of Technical Content for EMEA, and Leonardo Dentone, Program Chair of ISA Denmark, delve into key enablers driving Industry 5.0. They discuss the essential role of robotics and cyber-physical systems in fostering seamless human-machine collaboration and explore how these technologies can enhance resilience, safety, and operational sustainability. In another installment, In Between the Tech podcast, Larry Sweet, Director of Engineering at the Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing (ARM) Institute, addresses real-world challenges that engineers face in integrating human-focused systems and how to navigate these complexities in evolving industrial settings.
“Industry 5.0 signifies more than a shift in technology; it’s a rethinking of how industries can serve both productivity and societal good,” said Mark Patrick. “It calls on engineers to balance innovation with responsibility, creating environments where technology enhances human work and promotes sustainability.”
This EIT series provides an array of valuable resources, including in-depth articles, case studies, podcasts, infographics, videos, and subscriber-exclusive content, all designed to support engineers in the transition to Industry 5.0. Since its inception in 2015, the Empowering Innovation Together program has become a highly regarded source of insights and resources for engineers and technology enthusiasts.
