Abstract
Aim. To identify the elements (technologies) of Industry 4.0 that are effectively used in instrumentmaking production, contribute to improving the quality of its products and ensuring the economic security of the industry as a whole.
Methodology. The study is based on the analysis of foreign and domestic sources of literature devoted to issues of ensuring the economic security of the instrument-making industry and improving the quality of its products within the framework of the development of Industry 4.0. The methodological basis of the work was the methods of analysis, generalization, system and analytical approaches.
Results. Groups of product quality parameters and instrument quality indicators, the benefits of implementing the principles of Industry 4.0 at enterprises in the instrument-making industry, as well as the challenges of Industry 4.0 that can lead to significant risks are identified. The technologies of Industry 4.0 and a description of their application in instrument-making production are considered.
Research implications. Consists in the application of the considered technologies in the production process to improve the quality of products in the instrument-making industry, which acts as a factor contributing to the economic security of the industry and the country as a whole, since instrument-making is the basis for the development of technological progress in many areas.
