What Is a Smart Factory? Features and Technologies<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

More and more industries are joining the fourth industrial revolution or industry 4.0, introducing disruptive technologies to manufacturing processes, which give rise to the Smart Factory, also known as the factory of the future.<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Industrial digital transformation is the process through which physical and digital elements merge to improve productivity.<\/strong> In short, it is the application to industry of the IoT or Internet of Things model. This way, all physical elements are connected to each other, generating and sharing information.<\/strong> This data (Big Data) analysis identifies patterns and interdependencies, flags up inefficiencies and even predicts future events.<\/p>\n

The significance of what Industry 4.0 represents would be that it allows a more flexible and modular production through flexible production equipment and automation technologies.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ye3fQGaJWC0″ align=”center”][vc_column_text]IDEA<\/span> Ingenier\u00eda is noted for being at the forefront of industry 4.0<\/a> and, of course, for being the engineering company of the future in the present, using the most advanced technologies and bringing the latest innovations to the sectors in which our projects are implemented.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Smart Factory: What is it?<\/span><\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]As its name suggests, it is a highly connected and digitalised smart factory. Based on the Internet of Things, it is capable of storing and analysing large amounts of data that help improve processes, minimising production times and costs.<\/strong><\/p>\n

However, the most outstanding feature of this type of factories is that they manage to operate without too much human intervention, learning and adapting to changes in real time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This fact enables them to be much more flexible than former factories, as they are able to operate autonomously without any problems<\/strong>, thanks to the huge volume of information they process. This way, manufactured products are adapted to current needs<\/strong>, generating a much more versatile production.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Features: <\/strong>[\/vc_column_text]
