Abstract
As part of the fourth industrial revolution, the movement to apply various enabling technologies under the name of Industry
4.0 is being promoted worldwide. Because of the wide range of applications and the capacity of manufacturing workpieces
fexibly, machine tools are regarded as essential industrial elements. Hence, much research has been concerned with apply-
ing various enabling technologies such as cyber-physical systems to machine tools. To realize a machine tool suitable for
Industry 4.0, development should be done in a systematic manner rather than the ad-hoc application of enabling technologies.
In this paper, we propose a functional architecture for the Industry 4.0 version of machine tools, namely smart machine tool
system. To refect the voices of various stakeholders, stakeholder requirements are identifed and transformed into design
considerations. The design considerations are incorporated into the conceptual model and functional modeling, both of which
are used to derive the functional architecture. The implementation procedure and an illustrative case study are presented for
the application of the functional architecture.
