  • Smart Manufacturing Accelerates Adoption Post- Pandemic: 2020 – 2025
    ISG PREDICTS Smart Manufacturing Accelerates Adoption Post- pandemic: 2020 – 2025 Jim Routzong ISG WHITE PAPER © 2020 Information Services Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved INTRODUCTION Early in the first quarter of 2020, companies in the smart manufacturing and Industry 4.0 sectors around the world were anticipating another strong year with an accelerating global economy after more than a decade of rapid growth. In January 2020, market research firm MarketsandMarkets forecasted year-over-year accelerating growth for the smart manufacturing market with a total market value of $214.7 billion in 2020 and continued strong growth through 2025, reaching a projected total market value of $384.8 billion and a 12.4 percent CAGR from 2020 to 2025. See Figure 1 below. Figure 1: January 2020 Smart Manufacturing Market, by Region (USD Billion) When the COVID-19 pandemic hit in the first quarter of 2020, the impact on the global economy was significant, and the smart manufacturing segment felt it with the loss of 1.3 million manufacturing jobs in the U.S. during the month of April. As Asia-Pacific, Europe and North America shut down their economies with governmental stay-at-home orders, MarketsandMarkets and other industry research firms began to publish a post-COVID-19 year-over-year forecast with a revised impact to 2020, predicting a negative growth rate with a drop of 16 percent. Figure 2 illustrates the revised projection with estimated growth for the market from $181.3 billion in 2020 to $220.4 billion in 2025, a CAGR of 4.0 percent. While this is less than one-third of the pre-COVID-19 forecast, it still predicts a healthy recovery starting in 2021.

  • The Next Level of Intelligent and Self-Optimizing Factories
    Industry 4.0+: The Next Level of Intelligent and Self-optimizing Factories Erwin Rauch(&) Free University of Bolzano, 1, Universitätsplatz, 39100 Bolzano, Italy [email protected] Abstract. For almost a decade now, production science has been dealing with Industry 4.0. In recent years, a large number of technological innovations have been developed and introduced into practice, enabling the implementation of smart and connected manufacturing systems. Over the next years, researchers and practitioners will face new challenges in Industry 4.0 to achieve the original vision of an intelligent and self-optimizing factory. We are currently at a crossroads between the first level of Industry 4.0, which was characterized by technologically driven innovations, and a future level of Industry 4.0+, which will be based on data-driven innovation. This article introduces these two phases of Industry 4.0 and gives a direction of research trends with growing attention in manufacturing science and practice. In the context of Industry 4.0+, two research directions, in particular, are expected to generate groundbreaking changes in production and its environment. This is, on the one hand, the introduction of Artificial Intelligence into manufacturing and on the other hand the use of nature as inspiration in the form of Biological Transformation. Keywords: Industry 4.0 Á Industry 5.0 Á Society 5.0 Á Intelligent manufacturing Á Self-optimization Á Artificial intelligence Á Biological transformation 1 Introduction Digital technologies are increasingly changing society. In the production sector, the term ‘Industry 4.0’ (I4.0) in particular introduced a new era of digitally networked production almost 10 years ago.

  • Smart Manufacturing Whitepaper
    Smart Manufacturing Leveraging embedded intelligence and new sources of information to connect and optimize the enterprise Manufacturing leaders are living through a period of profound change, opportunity, confusion – and competitive pressures. The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of several technology disruptions creating opportunity for transformation into Smart Manufacturing environments. Early adopters have accepted the concept of Smart Manufacturing and are embracing technology to augment their processes and their people for higher performance and efficiency. The IoT and other technology innovations, combined with government initiatives around the globe – the Advanced Manufacturing Partnership 2.0, Industrie 4.0, China Manufacturing 2025, Manufacturing Innovation 3.0, Usine du Futur to name a few – are fundamentally reshaping the industrial landscape. Manufacturers must converge their Information Technology (IT) and Operations Technology (OT) systems into a single, unified network infrastructure and identify opportunities for using IoT technologies that enable seamless connectivity and information sharing across people, processes and things. They must be sure they can efficiently manage a greater abundance of data in ways that help them make better, faster business decisions. This includes using IoT device intelligence, cloud connectivity and data analytics together to help manage the large data sets required for balancing production activities based on upstream inventories and downstream demand. 2 | Smart Manufacturing Smart Manufacturing Smart Manufacturing offers nearly unlimited potential, and it all begins with establishing what Rockwell Automation calls The Connected Enterprise as the foundation for achieving greater connectivity and information sharing. These and other programs frame the industrial evolution of Smart Manufacturing – knowledge- enabled enterprises in which devices and processes are optimized to enhance productivity, safety, security, sustainability and performance.

  • Towards a Platform for Smart Manufacturing Improvement Planning
    Towards a Platform for Smart Manufacturing Improvement Planning SangSu Choi1, Thorsten Wuest2, and Boonserm (Serm) Kulvatunyou3 1 IGI, LLC, Clarksburg MD 20871, USA [email protected] 2 Industrial and Management Systems Engineering, West Virginia University, Morgantown, WV 26506-6070, USA [email protected] 3 Systems Integration Division, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, MD, USA 20899-1070, USA [email protected] Abstract. The manufacturing industry is transitioning towards smart manufacturing systems (SMS). Small and medium size manufacturers (SMMs) are particularly behind in this transition, plagued by lack of knowledge and resources. Several smart manufacturing capability assessment and maturity models exist to guide the transition. However, support for choosing the right one is lacking. This paper proposes a web-based, open source platform for smart manufacturing assessment to support particularly SMMs in this transition. The platform allows for risk-free self-assessments of the current maturity levels and developments of continuous improvement plans that are customized to the manufacturers’ unique characteristics. The platform also allows for sourcing of third-party technologies and services relevant to the improvements. More importantly, it will learn, rate, and recommend improvements and services based on past data. The platform is designed to be extensible and scalable to ultimately serve manufacturing enterprises of all industries. Keywords: Smart Manufacturing, Smart Factory, Industry 4.0, Cyber-Physical Production System, Smart Manufacturing Assessment, Smart Manufacturing Readiness 1 Introduction The world is moving towards the next industrial revolution where manufacturing enterprises are seeking for performance improvements through a new level of interconnectivity within their own production environments and value chains.
