Buzzwords like Industry 4.0, the Internet of Things (IoT) and cyber physical systems have been developed recently to describe future industrial systems (CPS). While Industry 4.0 and similar technologies have many potential manufacturing advantages, the great majority of these innovations are established for and/or by large companies. But there is a failure to understand about how these technologies are implemented in businesses today. As a result, we want to learn more about the patterns of adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies in manufacturing and production companies. In this paper, we explore if production organisations can be organised based on Industry 4.0 adoption trends and how these patterns allow the definition of certain industrial 4.0 technology configurations. Such study helps us to understand what is necessary for the proper adoption in manufacturing and production enterprises of such technologies. We present a study of the analysis of manufacturing and manufacturing businesses in the machines and appliances industry. © 2021
