Smart Factories: Giving Form to Digital Transformation in the Manufacturing Industry
We explain here trends in the use of the latest technologies for decarbonization, which is one of the mega-trends surrounding the manufacturing industry. Digital transformation in the manufacturing industry, which is being tackled in smart factories, and decarbonization efforts are two sides of the same coin. It will be important to introduce and utilize advanced information processing technologies such as IoT, AI, and digital twins as a means of realizing RE100-compliant factories.
Electronic Technology Supporting the Evolution of “Next Tech”
This page explains Home Tech, which involves the use of technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and IoT to enable a sustainable and affluent lifestyle. This movement aims to leverage home management and control technology to enable more effective and waste-free utilization of household equipment and consumer electronics products.
Digital transformation and the solving of social issues are the key to creating a prosperous and more sustainable future. We spoke to Murata's president, Norio Nakajima, and asked him about the shape of the future society that Murata envisions, the significance of Murata's business reform, and the direction of technological developments that the company is working on in order to realize this vision.
Smart Factories: Giving Form to Digital Transformation in the Manufacturing Industry
Robots used in plants are becoming smarter and more advanced. They are not simply automating routine tasks but independently performing situation-specific tasks, and moving in a coordinated manner with the movements of people. This article introduces scenarios in which cutting-edge robots are used and the roles that they play using automobile and semiconductor plants as examples.
The diversification of primary industries refers to the aim to have producers (primary industries) also perform processing (secondary industries) and distribution and sales (tertiary industries) in order to diversify their management. The purpose of this is to curb price fluctuations with the wholesale of produce to increase added value and to improve the income of producers while revitalizing regions at the same time.
Smart Factory Case Study
We introduce the importance of communication to solve issues on-site, realizations obtained from converting into a smart factory, and other aspects in Part 2.
Smart Factory Case Study
We introduce here the process when promoting the conversion of a regular factory into a smart factory and the keys to promoting that. We do that based on the example of Iwate Murata Manufacturing, which has eliminated the gap in the proficiency of workers to achieve task standardization and productivity improvement through conversion into a smart factory.
Energy harvesting is a technology whereby tiny amounts of energy are harvested from the surrounding environment and then converted into electric power using voltage materials, modules, and sensors. Let's look at several leading examples of how energy is harvested from the environment.
