IoT in Manufacturing market size to grow from $6.17 Billion in 2016 to %20.59 Billion by 2021, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 27.2%.
Predictive maintenance plays a significant role in managing high valued factory equipment. The predictive maintenance techniques are designed to determine the condition of in-service manufacturing equipment in order to predict when the maintenance should be performed. This approach promises cost savings over routine or time-based preventive maintenance because tasks are performed only when required. Load balancing with centralized monitoring solution improves the distribution of additional workloads across the manufacturing operations to enable smoother functioning and allocation of resources to multiple manufacturing processes, thereby boosting the manufacturing efficiency and productivity.
Furthermore, lack of standards for interconnectivity and interoperability between IoT devices is one of the biggest restraining factor for the IoT in manufacturing market. In addition, data security & privacy concerns, and shadow IT risk are the other factors restraining the growth of the IoT in manufacturing market.
Business consulting services play a significant role in IoT in manufacturing, as enterprises find it suitable to consult with the business professionals before implementing IoT platforms and solutions in manufacturing processes. Most of the IoT vendors offer business consulting services to their commercial clients, including manufacturing companies, and monitor the impact analysis of production cost, quality, flexibility, service levels, and control. These services provide a clear understanding of the current and future product portfolio, core capabilities & needs of the organizations, and future footprint & capacity plan, including which sites should be closed, consolidated, or prioritized for manufacturing operation optimizations.

Connect the Dots: Designing for Reality—The Pre-Manufacturing Process
05/08/2024 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsI have been working with Nolan Johnson on a podcast series about designing PCBs for the reality of manufacturing. By sharing lessons learned over a long career in the PCB industry, we hope to shorten learning curves and help designers produce better boards with less hassle and rework. Episode 2 deals with the electronic pre-manufacturing process. Moving from CAD (computer-aided design) to CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) is a key step in PCB manufacturing. CAM turns digital designs into instructions that machines can use to actually build the PCB.
