Automotive manufacturers are turning to plant modernization and digitalization due to challenges with stricter regulations, increasing complexity, component shortages, and a talent crisis. Fortunately, Smart Manufacturing enables a company’s factory to evolve quickly. But, while it may be desirable to start with brand new equipment, most companies must optimize CAPEX and explore ways to upgrade and modernize existing equipment and facilities to make them more intelligent and efficient, minimizing disruptions.
In this webinar, learn about Smart Manufacturing solutions for automotive manufacturers that can help modernize their existing OT/IT landscape with minimal downtime and costs while achieving improved operational transparency driving faster cycle times and improving quality. Taking a cloud-based SaaS environment helps drive Digital Transformation with agility, flexibility & time to value across the organization at scale and meeting the needs of industrial cybersecurity.

Quickly achieve manufacturing targets by leveraging automation, software, and hardware
Discover the many facets to the factory evolution process:
- The use of virtual “Digital Twin” representations of manufacturing cells, lines, and entire factories to quickly evaluate improvements and new proposals.
- Improve product and process quality through robust virtual planning and data analytics tools
- Strong data management backbone, supported by advanced modern connectivity through IIoT technology, leveraging standardized automation libraries to get lines up and running faster based on best practices.
