Abstract
This chapter deals with the use of advanced manufacturing technologies in Slovenian manufacturing companies in the light of Industry 4.0. The main objective of the chapter is to determine the adoption of technologies in manufacturing companies, and to analyse how selected technologies affect different company characteristics. The authors have analysed the differences in the use of technologies, depending on the company size, technological intensity, product complexity, ability to introduce new products, etc. Results are based on a sample of 118 Slovenian manufacturing companies, whose data were obtained through the 2018/19 European Manufacturing Survey edition. The results are presented with the use of descriptive statistics, and they show that the use of specific technologies in Slovenian manufacturing companies is quite diverse. They found out that the number of technologies used and the potential of their use have a positive impact on the product characteristic in terms of increasing the ability to manufacture complex products and to introduce new products to the market.
