Abstract
The paper concerns with the identification of current communication technologies and software functionalities from the field of digitalization and Industry 4.0, from the point of view of benefits and applicability for the machine manufacturer. In order to identify the relevant technologies and functionalities, both a descriptive and statistical literature research was carried out. As a result, both the currently most widespread technologies and eleven IT functionalities relevant to mechanical engineers were identified and described in terms of their application and implementation. In addition, a knowledge gap in the area of industry transfer in the field of Industry 4.0 / Digitalization was identified
