Japan’s Movement towards Smart Factories

Japan has gained a dominant position in this world by the command of its technology. It is second to none in consideration to technological innovations and diffusions of innovations across the globe. There are many technology giants (like Kokoro, Kuka, Kawasaki, Yamahai in Japan, ruling the roost in the global market. A few of these technology giants are pioneering the robot and automation technology.

Therefore, it is much expected that these trendsetting companies will invent cutting-edge robots, state-of-the-art automatic machines and modern dashboard type interface to control the whole automation process of a modern industry in an easiest and quickest way. These robots, technical devices and tools can take a series of actions one after another, making no mistake. Say for an example, Kwasaki robots can easily control the automation process in almost all fields. The field of application can be seen in Arch welding, assembly, clean room, friction spot joining, loading and unloading, handling, polishing, painting, palletizing, seal and application, spot welding, etc.  By the grace of these giants companies, more products can be produced and captured quickly in narrow places of a factory. Only a simple programming or a dashboard type interface can easily control a series of processes automatically.  The modern technological inventions can easily enhance the production of a factory and reduce its operation cost significantly. 

Universal robots can automate the industrial process and save men from a repetitive work. There are industrial robots assigning employees multiple tasks to do within a tight timeline.

Youshin produces many high-performance all-axis servo-driven take-out robots to make an industry smart in its various stages of planning, organizing, staffing, controlling, delivering, etc.   

Yamaha, one of the most respected Japan-based companies, has introduced assembly robots to the industrial marketplace to ensure the best solution for any automated assembly requirement. Its innovation is highly esteemed all over the world for ensuring high speed and dependability. It not only boosts the production and capacity of a factory but also ensures quality products and a steady bottom-line for it. 

The matter of fact is that Japan is a truly developed country following the real trend of automation, modernization, globalization and advanced industrialization. Japanese are moving faster than other countries, riding on the eGovernance, automation and modernization.  As the consequence of these, they are making smart factories in order to produce more products at a lower cost within the lowest possible without any significant involvement of men in the production and operation process. They have covered all industries. Starting from the process industry to manufacturing industry till health industry, they are doing extremely well.

According to the Japanese, the diversification of demands and needs, digitalization of products and services, and modernization of production processes require innovation and diffusion of innovation to achieve a new generation of information technology called the IoT (Internet of Things). Driven by the modern concept, they are dedicated to inventing new technologies and tools to enhance automation to ensure progress in the industrial sector. As the consequence of it, Japanese are inventing modern techniques and technologies to enhance the operation, support and production process of various factories.  Gone are those days, when men would control and supervise the various processes of a factory.  And the credit of it defiantly goes to the Japanese only.
