Top-level scenario planning and overall framework of smart manufacturing implementation system (SMIS) for enterprise

In the current trend of smart manufacturing, the architecture of smart manufacturing is gradually proposed by many countries in the world. Main components, elements, functions, and relationships of these smart manufacturing architectures have been clarified. However, the specific details of cross matching of different dimensions in these smart manufacturing architectures have not been thoroughly developed. Therefore, a certain part of a plane intersected of system hierarchy dimension and smart characteristics dimension in the model for smart manufacturing (SMS) from a perspective of implementation was selected for detailed study, which is defined as smart manufacturing implementation system (SMIS). Firstly, a top-level scenario planning of SMIS was proposed from perspectives of lean factory, interconnection factory, information factory, transparent factory, virtual factory, and smart factory. Then, an overall framework of SMIS was deduced through a top-level scenario planning of SMIS. Finally, through a case study, the specific implementation process of SMIS is obtained. Through the proposed overall framework and implementation path of SMIS, enterprises can implement intelligent manufacturing step by step. In addition, the top-level scenario planning and overall framework of SMIS are complementary to the SMS proposed by China.
