Machine: The general name given to mechanisms designed to transform any form of energy into kinetic energy or another type of energy, or to perform or complete a specific task or formation. Machines are present in almost every aspect of our lives, from electricity to transportation, and from construction to material production.

With the advent of Industry 4.0, these machines have attempted to enter our lives by completely removing the human factor. Although the fourth industrial revolution is packaged with the thesis that removing the human factor will increase profitability for manufacturers in many areas, countries that import high technology—like ours—will effectively have to pay back what they “saved” on human labor many times over through acquisition, maintenance-repair, and spare part costs sent abroad.

This perspective is certainly not an argument to escape from technology. To clarify: the total absence of the human factor can indeed provide profit in ideal environments. However, manufacturers know that theory and application often show significant differences. Even a minor power outage or an environment with constant power flickers can lead to numerous errors in systems without human oversight. This can result in serious damage to the final product, even if initial acquisition costs are not taken into account.

The human factor is an absolute necessity in the design, production, and sales processes of products. The fact that these data points are indispensable is clearly seen in the principles of Industry 5.0—the fifth industrial revolution.

Of course, technology should exist and be used at the highest possible level. However, instead of removing the human, investing in skilled, well-trained, and growth-oriented people who can “speak” and “communicate” with machines is always more efficient and logical.

For those curious about what Industry 3.0, 2.0, and 1.0 were while discussing Industry 5.0 and 4.0, it is useful to provide some brief information:

Industry 1.0: The first industrial revolution began with the use of steam power to operate mills and weaving looms, spreading rapidly. The search for efficiency, higher production, profitability, and marketing increased levels of welfare.

Industry 2.0: The second industrial revolution facilitated transportation and communication—primarily through railways—with the introduction of electrical energy and steel production, leading to the birth and rapid spread of many sectors.

Industry 3.0: The third industrial revolution brought digitalization into our lives. It was a revolution that pushed machines toward “smart production” through electronic automation, moving from simple logical production (coded at birth) to systems where various features could be added.

Regardless of what is produced in the world, the human factor—and especially the designer’s spirit—is something no one can afford to overlook. The example of the late Steve Jobs, creator of Apple, is the finest example of this topic. There were perhaps much better designers for technical hardware and software, but when they removed him before the system was fully established, the company faced the risk of bankruptcy.

At the very least, until the system is fully settled, the human factor should not be removed…

Simple precautions sometimes save lives. The best investment we can make for our family, our business, and our environment is protective measures. With Trimbox and GNDSeries, you can be protected from electricity-related damages and electrical contact fires caused by them.
