How to get started with Smart Manufacturing?
We’re glad you’re interested in the new report from ABI Research, Smart Manufacturing and How to Get Started – The Implementation and ROI of Industry 4.0 use cases.
5G smart manufacturing and the rise of cellular connectivity
Erik Josefsson, Head of Advanced Industries at Ericsson talks in this LightReading interview about the rise of wireless (4G and 5G) in smart manufacturing, the Cost of Inaction (COI) if a factory does not innovate in cellular technologies for their production process and he gives recommendations on how to get started with smart manufacturing use cases (examples: AGVs, AMRs).
According to a new report from ABI Research, deploying dedicated cellular-enabled Industry 4.0 solutions can enable new technological solutions and generate an operational cost savings return on investment (ROI) of 10 to 20x over 5 years.
Manufacturing executives need to understand why and how they need to develop the right connectivity strategies to unlock this value.
The report from ABI Research discusses:
- The benefits and return on investment for five specific manufacturing Industry 4.0 use cases including asset tracking, condition-based monitoring, provisioning connected products, mobile robots and augmented reality
- How industrial customers are implementing these use cases
- Recommendations on how to get started with each use case
We’re looking forward to sharing this report with you!
