FEBRUARY 20226 MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY INSIGHTSWhen it comes to the world of manufacturing, Industry 4.0, the Industrial Internet of Things, and Smart Manufacturing are all terms we hear thrown around a lot. While these terms can all be used in isolation, they share one very important commonality ­ they are all impacted by digital transformation. At present, manufacturing systems benefit from an array of new, innovative technologies. Technologies including big data, robotics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, augmented reality, 3D level of control, and the oversight they bring all play a role in helping us create a digital twin of an entire manufacturing system. The benefit of these digital twins is the increased business performance and greater real-time understanding of an object or process in play. A smart factory brings with it countless benefits. Smart factories embrace planning, supply chain logistics, and all aspects of product development and innovation. Those failing to adopt smart manufacturing technologies and practices are the ones who will fall behind the competition and ultimately are likely to disappear. With this in mind ­ for factories to become truly smart, they first need to understand what it means to be smart. By building robust products, adopting a global outlook, and better software infrastructure, manufacturing organizations can internationalize rapidly regardless of their size. This edition of Manufacturing Technology Insights brings you the story of some of the most successful smart manufacturing solution providers that deliver the best outcomes for their clients. This edition also offers a combination of thought leadership articles from subject-matter experts with real-life stories on fostering robust partnerships and exclusive insights from CIOs and CXOs.
