Latest Technology Trends in Manufacturing

The current business climate is driving manufacturing companies to build a more digital and data-driven workforce. Today, more manufacturers are using data and automation to improve safety. Due to the in-person limitations of COVID-19, 84% of recently surveyed manufacturers are using their website more to generate new customers — in contrast to 72% before the pandemic. With the increasing use of technological advancements, manufacturing leaders should be aware that their industry is one of the most targeted by cyber attackers.

According to EEF, over 45% f the manufacturers have been subjected to a cybersecurity incident. Recent predictions have identified 2021 as the year technology gains critical mass. Here are four technology trends which are transforming the future of manufacturing industry.

Robotics and Automation

  • Robotics play a major role in the manufacturing landscape today. Manufacturing robots automate repetitive tasks, reduce margins of error to negligible rates, and enable human workers to focus on more productive areas of the operation
  • Robot orders are up 5.2% through the third quarter of 2019, with 23,894 robotic units ordered, a value of $1.3 billion

IoT

  • IoT is a way to digital transformation in manufacturing. Industrial IoT employs a network of sensors to collect critical production data and uses cloud software to turn this data into valuable insights about the efficiency of the manufacturing operations
  • The advantages of IoT are cost reduction, shorter time-to-market, improved safety, and mass customization

Big Data

  • Big data can include data collected at every stage of production, including data from machines, devices, and operators. This data can be either structured or unstructured
  • Big data can be used for predictive maintenance, predictive quality, anomaly detection, tool life-cycle optimization, supply chain management and production forecasting

3D Printing

  • It’s a highly cost-effective way for product designers to test and troubleshoot new products and to produce items on demand rather than have to manufacture and warehouse them
  • 3D printing has also transformed the expensive and time-consuming process of tooling. This ensures that manufactured products function properly, extends the product lifecycle, and makes for a higher quality product overall
