Redesigning Automotive Manufacturing

How manufacturers can utilise advanced techniques to overcome the industry's toughest challenges

INTRODUCTION

Why advanced manufacturing is necessary right now

Automotive manufacturers are in the midst of tremendous industry-wide change. Consumer preferences are rapidly evolving, the global regulatory environment is tightening, product development cycles are shrinking, and virtually all of the technologies involved in design and manufacturing are seeing rapid-fire innovations.

In response, many manufacturers are taking steps toward a more advanced manufacturing environment, one that is characterised by connectivity, driven by data, and open to new modes of working. But advanced manufacturing itself is an emerging concept made up of fast-moving and complex techniques for both design and production. And there is no one right way to bring advanced manufacturing to life.

In this ebook, we’ll take a closer look at the industry trends creating the need for advanced manufacturing, explore the new technologies automakers can employ in future factories, and show how forward-thinking manufacturers are benefiting from some of these techniques today.
