Machines

🔧 Role: The Foundation of Industrial Automation

This is the core level of industrial automation, where physical manufacturing processes take place. It consists of:

✅ Industrial Machines & Equipment – CNC machines, conveyors, robotic arms, and smart sensors.

✅ IoT-enabled Devices – Smart sensors collecting real-time operational data (temperature, vibration, pressure).

✅ Actuators & Motors – Enabling precise mechanical movements based on control commands.

✅ Production Lines – Automated and semi-automated production systems optimizing efficiency.

➡ Machines execute the actual manufacturing tasks, collecting data and responding to control signals from higher layers.
