Request for Covid-19 Impact Assessment of this Report
A smart factory represents a flexible environment wherein systems can run autonomously by themselves and self-optimize performance. It is being touted as Industry 4.0 where the backbone of this trend would be networking and internet. The 4 design principles of a smart factory would be interoperability, information transparency, technical assistance and decentralized decisions. A smart factory would include cyber physical systems, Internet of Things, cloud computing and cognitive computing. The concept of smart factory visualizes that every step of the manufacturing process can be interconnected. It would include entire technical integration of systems across product lifecycles, supply and value chains, functional hierarchies and geographic boundaries.
Market Dynamics:
Factors like technology, optimization and sustainability are shaping the manufacturing industry. On the technology front, the enabling and advancement of technologies like Internet of Things (IoT), data analytics, cloud based application infrastructure and middleware, smart robotics, additive manufacturing, integrated product-product simulation is primarily driving the smart factory market. Tracking multi geographic and multi plant operations and the growing need for centralization is also shaping the growth of this market.
The critical challenges facing the evolution of the smart factory market are the design of the process landscape, identification of new employee profiles, re-skilling of the employees and the complexity and the expense of the networking subsystems. The associated cyber risk and the lack of proper cyber security infrastructure can also dampen the growth of this market.
