Murata Manufacturing participated in the Automotive Engineering Exposition. This is an automobile technology exhibition that was held in Yokohama from May 24 to 26, 2023 and in Nagoya from July 5 to 7, 2023. We now introduce here the solutions we have proposed for the electrification, automation, connectivity, and otherwise of automobiles with a focus on the exhibition at the Nagoya venue.
We conducted a questionnaire with 500 people involved in promoting the conversion of regular factories into smart factories. We introduce here the issues we found from the questionnaire results and the solutions aimed at resolving those issues.
DX×Murata: The future of manufacturing that is evolving through DX
Mr. Horibe, who is involved in solution development, and Mr. Higuchi, who supports problem-solving from a data science perspective, introduce the topic of business model reform through digital transformation (DX) based on an example of cooperation in wireless sensing solutions using wireless sensor networks (WSN).
Electronic Technology Supporting the Evolution of “Next Tech”
Explains retailtech, which utilizes leading-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), IoT, augmented reality (AR), RFID, etc. to achieve an increase in retail industry sales. Retailtech is an information technology movement that realizes high-quality customer experiences without missing a customer.
Electronic Technology Supporting the Evolution of “Next Tech”
Explains cleantech, which promotes the conservation of the natural environment through the utilization of ICT. Cleantech is a technology development movement to create the foundation of near-future social systems to support the recycling society that is essential to the realization of a sustainable society.
It has been a while since the expression Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) started spreading and eventually became established, and more and more sophisticated and diverse solutions and use cases have emerged. Nevertheless, for a variety of reasons, there are still factories that have not yet begun to implement IIoT or have deployed it only partially for certain processes. In this article, we discuss some of the problems or bottlenecks commonly encountered when deploying IIoT, explain how to choose solutions you can use now for making a small start or scaling up operations, and provide some related hints.
The "contactless" trend that reduces opportunities for contact with people and objects has gained strength throughout society. Against this backdrop, the term "touchless economy," which indicates contactless economic activities, is also attracting attention.
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.
Smart Factory Case Study
In Part 2 of this article, we introduce initiatives on predictive maintenance and visualization of the equipment operating situation derived from realizations obtained in the EMS. We also look at the clues to cultivating an awareness to make improvements in the manufacturing site that forms the key to converting a regular factory into a smart factory.
