Smart manufacturing platform technology allows an operator to keep a check on production process by connecting internet assisted equipment and devices on single platform. Smart manufacturing platform allows to not only check and monitor device performance but also helps in optimizing the overall performance. However, device management platform allows to connect and disconnect new devices, control various devices, view facts of the devices and check their status, and monitor devices remotely. In the manufacturing industry, intelligent machines are being utilized to carry out the manufacturing procedure without any human intervention. Companies involved in industrial manufacturing are noticing high pressure to enhance productivity as well as lower manufacturing costs.
COVID-19 scenario analysis of smart manufacturing platform market:
- The emergence of COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected almost all industries across the world. Further, lockdown restriction on movement has disrupted the supply chain across the globe but gave opportunities to the manufacturing industry and has positive impact on the growth of the smart manufacturing platform market.
- The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic has resulted into disruptions in the supply chain across the globe. Economies across the world have declined as there is a major decline in the demand for products. The production across industries has been limited due to the pandemic resulting in the shortage of raw material. The decline in exports and disruptions in the supply chain are the major factors contributing to the decline in production.
- In addition, it is notable to see the changes in consumer behavior and demand, purchasing patterns, re-routing of the supply chain, current market forces, and significant interventions of governments. The COVID-19 pandemic has acted as a catalyst for the development of automation technologies by global companies, especially in the area of drones for the purpose of surveillance and medicine delivery.
- Furthermore, there are strong indications that the current decrease in demand for technology and digital solutions will be just a short-term phenomenon. In the medium-to-long run, the COVID-19 technology impact may be extremely positive. Everyone is forced to embrace new technologies and discover their benefits. Additional investments in digital infrastructure can be expected.
Top impacting factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers, and Impact Analysis
Growing industrial automation
Industrial automation is defined as the use of control systems such as robots or computers for handling machinery and different processes in any industry. Mainly, in the manufacturing industry, intelligent machines are being used to carry out the manufacturing process without any human intervention. In addition, companies involved in industrial manufacturing are observing high pressure to increase productivity as well as lower manufacturing costs. However, to reduce manufacturing costs, increase productivity, and optimize resources, they are implementing industrial automation. Further, industrial automation systems remove human intervention; help in reducing the work, waste, and labor cost; minimize downtime and inaccuracies; increase process quality; and reduce the response and processing time. Thus, the systems also monitor and record valuable information to increase the manufacturing process, identify patterns, and implement changes to prevent future events.
Lack of skilled IoT-related workforce
Rising need to boost productivity, optimize resources, and lower manufacturing costs are major factors responsible for the growing demand for smart manufacturing platforms in manufacturing facilities. In addition, this platform helps manufacturers to collect and manage data repeatedly to make knowledgeable decisions and this data of machines and sensors is communicated to the cloud via IoT technology. Further, several companies across the globe have highly advanced in research and development and are adopting IoT technologies to industrialize their manufacturing processes. However, some companies are still following the traditional manufacturing practices due to lack of a skilled workforce related to IoT technology.
Rising adoption of IIoT and cloud technologies
IIoT is the application of connected sensors, instrumentation, and other machinery devices in the manufacturing industry. IIoT is developing manufacturing plants by connecting a wide network of intelligent devices that can upsurge automation in plants. In addition, with the help of IIoT, plant floors are becoming gradually interconnected and integrated, which led to the transformation of industrial automation into smart automation, enabling manufacturers to gain a higher return on investment. Further, IIoT facilitates users to access data of the unreachable areas of a plant. The IIoT makes industrial processes efficient, productive, and innovative, as the architecture provides information about operational and business systems on a real-time basis. The manufacturers investing in the IIoT are achievement profits such as increased and efficient productivity through connectivity, automation, and analytics.
