Smart Factories: The Future of Manufacturing (GRK)
Smart Factories: The Future of Manufacturing 🔹 Introduction The world of manufacturing is changing rapidly. Traditional factories filled with heavy machinery and manual operations are evolving into smart factories — highly automated, data-driven, and interconnected production environments. These factories are at the heart of Industry 4.0 , transforming how products are designed, manufactured, and delivered. Smart factories represent the next stage of industrial evolution , where machines, people, and digital systems collaborate to achieve efficiency, flexibility, and sustainability . 🔹 What is a Smart Factory? A smart factory is a digitally connected manufacturing environment that uses technologies like: IoT (Internet of Things) for real-time monitoring. Artificial Intelligence (AI) for predictive decision-making. Robotics & Automation for efficient production. Big Data & Cloud Computing for analy...
