Factories of the Future

Factories of the Future

The Factories of the Future (FOF) are the Connected Factories which have successfully implemented the IR 4.0 and Smart Manufacturing by optimizing the available digital and robotics with human interface technologies. This will require the adoption and implementation of IoT (Internet of Things), Cyber-Physical Production, Additive Manufacturing, Advanced Data Analytics, Digital Infrastructure and the human element of Cross-Domain Skills. Achieving the status of FOF is not an option but a survival requirement for any industries and manufacturing operations.

A strong foundation is a prerequisite to achieve the status of readiness for the FOF and IR4.0 implementation. Capable and predictable machines and processes are critical, employees who are continuously improving internal processes and learning new ideas with the ability to quickly adopt and implement new and better methods. These are extremely important for the sustainable success of the FOF. To achieve the status FOF, the companies must mature in Lean Manufacturing and operationalized as an organizational culture and then implement the Smart Manufacturing methodologies.

Lean Manufacturing + Smart Manufacturing = Factories of the Future

Lean Smart Industry Solutions PLT have the required experience and expertise to implement Lean and Smart Manufacturing to achieve the FOF status.

Included Training Modules:

Smart Manufacturing
The Smart Manufacturing encompasses the need to be Lean and the ability to embrace the future. Lean implementations are foundational to establish the platform and the readiness to implement the requirements of Factories of the Future……to become Lean and Smart is to become Smart Manufacturing.
Industry 4.0 Factories of Future
The Industry 4.0 or Industrial Revolution 4.0 is about the connected factories and being in action. It is going beyond the current traditional mass manufacturing, computer and automation to create sustainable advantage and superior value within and to compete globally.
Foundation & Readiness for Factories of Future
This is the important Level 1 Program will assess the organization’s foundation and its readiness to effectively embrace and succeed in the implementation of the Factories of the Future. The organizations and employees must be ready to embark into the future and without the right foundation the implementation of the Factories of the Future will be wasteful and will create a much bigger competitive challenge.
Implementation Lean-Smart Manufacturing
This is the Level 2 Program, after completing the assessment of the Organization’s foundation and readiness program. This Level 2 is the implement strong Lean foundation and ensuring the ability to implement Lean Smart Manufacturing.
