Comprehensive Report on Global Smart Factory Market by Knowledge Sourcing Intelligence


INTRODUCTION
A smart factory is an advanced and automated manufacturing facility with cyber-physical systems ensuring efficient movement of materials across the factory floor Smart Factories basically help in the Automation of the manufacturing process. Stringent industrial regulations regarding worker’s safety in hazardous working conditions have further augmented the need for these solutions across industries. The implementation of these solutions eliminates the involvement of the workforce at the production floor which reduces the risk of industrial accidents. 

However, factors like high maintenance and initial cost and lack of skilled workforce hamper the market growth. Geographically, the Asia Pacific region is expected to dominate the Smart Factory Market over the forecasted period on account of high growth being observed in the manufacturing sector in emerging economies of China, and India. Market Research is done by the knowledge sourcing industry due to the huge scope with the respective industry.

End-user the industry for the smart factory automation sector is broadly segmented as process industries, and discrete industries. Food and beverage, healthcare, oil and gas, and chemical industries come under process industries. Automotive, manufacturing, aerospace and defense, and consumer electronics industry are categorized as discrete industries. Discrete industries account for the maximum share in the smart factory automation market as there is a significant demand for factory automation solutions for better maintenance and control of operations, and to sustain the quality of products. 

 AUTOMOTIVE
The automotive industry accounts for the largest market size of worth US$X.XXX billion in 2016 and will continue to dominate the global smart factory market, growing at a CAGR of X.XX% during the forecast period to reach a total market size of US$X.XXX billion by 2021. Automotive industry is growing rapidly with rapid urbanization, and increasing disposable income which in turn, is boosting the need for adoption of smart factory automation solutions over the forecast period. Moreover, the implementation of various automation solutions such as PLCs, SCADA, MES, and DCS to control cost, and improve the efficiency of the manufacturing plant complements the growth of smart factory automation solutions in the automotive industry. Use of industrial robots further bolsters the deployment of smart factory automation in the automotive sector.

Several other technologies offered from factory automation solution such as machine to machine communication interface supports smart automotive factories to eliminate time wastage occurred due to the delay in the process change also propel the deployment of factory automation solutions in the automotive industry. Furthermore, the growing Internet of Things (IoT) and services, and provision of integration of manufacturing and engineering processes have witnessed a tremendous growth rate. 
For instances, Ford has deployed a robotic arm with eyes during the production of Ford Escape. In the welding line of Great Wall Motors, the Chinese automotive plants which are considered as the most productive lines has introduced 27 ABB robots to work at 30 different workstations. BMW has also deployed collaborative robots to its assembly line where these robots perform the final assembly of the car doors. Robots are also being used in car paintings in many automotive factories.
