Advanced Manufacturing brings together all the technologies developed in industrial environments to make manufacturing more agile and efficient. To achieve this, it applies advanced digital technologies to the industrial environment.

Industry 4.0, which consists of the application of digital tools to the industrial value chain to generate impact on business, has evolved and driven the concept of Advanced Manufacturing, facilitating to the maximum its implementation at any stage of the chain.

At Minsait we consider there are six key technologies that are contributing to the emergence of the new Advanced Manufacturing and that are already sufficiently mature to be implemented:

01

Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality

04

3D printing

02

UAVs

05

Cobots

03

Wearables

06

AGVs

At Minsait we have capabilities and knowledge in Advanced Manufacturing at different levels, complementing our solutions software offering in Industry 4.0 and allowing us to prescribe the best solutions to our clients in their path towards complete digitisation of their enterprises:

 

  • Own Capabilities. At Minsait we have our own proven proprietary assets in Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality, UAVs and Wearables
  • Partner ecosystem. For some areas we are launching collaborative agreements that allow us to offer our clients an expert point of view and an opportunity to implement several advanced manufacturing technologies, specifically, AGVs and cobots
  • Expert knowledge. We have an expert perspective on 3D printing which helps us to provide support to our potential clients in applying this technology.
