Modern electronics manufacturing has many challenges: supply chain uncertainty, longer lead times, and the increasing costs of materials and components that change by the minute. There are also constant staffing fluctuations, resource constraints, and the high price of energy. On top of all these problems, manufacturers also manage the complexity of global manufacturing with multiple capabilities, partners, and suppliers while delivering a high mix of customized products. They must balance it all while managing quality vs. yield and planning for future production needs.
Why make your factory smart?
Smart manufacturing is the digital strategy that encompasses the entire manufacturing process, from PCB design and factory floor optimization to enhancing the flow of materials between warehouse and shop floor to incorporating customer feedback data to help you plan new designs. Whether you have one plant location or multiple sites in a global enterprise, smart manufacturing makes it all work flawlessly together, from design to production, driving higher efficiencies throughout the manufacturing process.
