  An important novelty of 5G is its role in transforming the industrial
production into Industry 4.0. Specifically, Ultra-Reliable Low Latency
Communications (URLLC) will, in many cases, enable replacement of cables with
wireless connections and bring freedom in designing and operating
interconnected machines, robots, and devices. However, not all industrial links
will be of URLLC type; e.g. some applications will require high data rates.
Furthermore, these industrial networks will be highly heterogeneous, featuring
various communication technologies. We consider network slicing as a mechanism
to handle the diverse set of requirements to the network. We present methods
for slicing deterministic and packet-switched industrial communication
protocols at an abstraction level that is decoupled from the specific
implementation of the underlying technologies. Finally, we show how network
calculus can be used to assess the end-to-end properties of the network slices.
