Abstract

Reports on the factory of the future where automation dominates operations. Digital manufacturing processes have been extensively transformed by ubiquitous connectivity and collaborative robots so much that the industry of the future is pursuing high productivity, efficiency, and customization by becoming increasingly collaborative, connected, and cognitive (IC3). In fact, these new technologies have fostered a remarkable increase in production efficiency and an exceptional economic growth worldwide.
