Reducing energy costs and optimizing production processes are among the key factors of a complete digital transformation for manufacturing companies. By adopting innovative smart manufacturing solutions, companies can increase machinery efficiency, improve their production cycles as well as increase product quality. IoT platforms have proven themselves to be supportive for monitoring industrial machine processes, thus, allowing quick recovery of investment, within months, in IoT technology. IoT platforms ensure greater production efficiency.

Today’s manufacturers are under pressure to be more flexible, reduce downtime and costs and increase efficiencies. In addition to making new investments in production and technology, data-driven manufacturing companies are responding to these pressures by leveraging the capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI), the industrial internet of things, (IIoT), cloud computing technologies and innovations in smart measurement and quality data management systems—resulting in greater visibility into their operations. Read our whitepaper, “Smart Measuring Systems for the Smart Factory,” to learn how Mitutoyo is helping advance factory intelligence.

Much of the manufacturing industry is overwhelmed with the digital transformation shift. Many manufacturers are just starting this digital journey, seeking ways to transform and innovate to adapt and succeed. Digital transformation for manufacturers can mean different things, from deploying a new digital experience for customers to a completely new business model. Some changes we have seen, such as the use of real-time data to improve operations, forecast outcomes, and map out risk-based guidance, are greatly beneficial for plant managers and factory personnel. Moreover, they can help manufacturers ensure business continuity and maximize return on investment (ROI

The Smart Industry Readiness Index (SIRI) comprises a suite of frameworks and tools to help manufacturers – regardless of size or industry – start, scale and sustain their digital transformation journeys. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the reshaping of production value chains globally are spurring the manufacturing community to embrace digitalization with greater focus and urgency, motivated not only by potential gains in efficiency, but also by operational resilience. This renewed drive is further powered by the ongoing data revolution, where decision-makers increasingly expect key business commitments, plans and interventions to be supported through big data

Additive manufacturing (AM) has matured significantly as a manufacturing technique over the last 5 years. Along with this, knowledge of AM within companies has increased and its opportunities are increasingly discussed at board-level. Time and budget are invested to explore the potential for 3D printing beyond the most obvious applications. More than ever before, there’s an appetite to take a strategic approach and maximize the opportunity
