Abstract
Digital technologies are shown to perform a vital role in developing a resource-efficient industrial base. The effective adoption of digital technologies can help reduce costs and improve the sustainability and flexibility of manufacturing industries. However, how digital technologies favor the transition towards manufacturing systems has not been analyzed in detail yet, so more conceptual and empirical investigation is required in this field. This study investigates the digital transformation trend in the manufacturing industry by combining the bibliometric method with life cycle mode and literature mining. An integrated data analysis system (IDAS) is developed, which includes data collection, data analysis, and visualization processes. As a result, dual-map overlay, keywords clusters, Timeline, and Time zone views are visualized to identify the research trend with the three main aspects: design, larger integrated circuit, and sustainable manufacturing concept evolution. Besides, to recognize potentials for future development of the domain, life cycle model-based technological trajectory is identified, constructing an information society, the combination of tools, and the performance improvement of the whole digital transformation. Moreover, in response to sustainable development, a system considering business strategies and cultural delivery, technological integration, and partner participation and evaluation is developed, which could cope with complex manufacturing processes due to different industrial tasks in different regions.
Highlights
Digital technology is reshaping the world economy and has become a new driving force for economic growth
Digitalization is an essential part of a sustainable manufacturing environment [3]. e development of manufacturing began early 19th century from the first or Victorian industrial revolution, where steam engines were used in manufacturing with supply chain systems. e second industrial revolution presented mass production, and the use of electricity for production. is second-generation industrialization was upgraded with the incorporation of electronics and robotics into the manufacturing process [4]. e desire to make it more sustainable has resulted in the evolution of the fourth industrial revolution (I4.0), which upgraded the third industrial revolution with the integration of information and Mobile Information Systems communication technology (ICT) that comprises digitalization, cyber-physical systems, artificial intelligence, and data analytics for improved productivity [5]
According to the White paper “ e Impact of the Fourth Industrial Revolution on Supply Chains” released by the World Economic Forum, the digital transformation would reduce the cost of manufacturing enterprises by 17.6% and increase the revenue by 22.6% [6]
Summary
Digital technology is reshaping the world economy and has become a new driving force for economic growth. New digital technologies offer more innovation and development zones to enterprises and industrial supply chain organizations [1]. Integration of advanced technology and associated digitalization in industries is becoming essential especially when working towards achieving sustainability within the manufacturing operations. Faced with the complex industrial processes due to different tasks in different regions, this study identifies the pathways and evaluation index for sustainable digital transformation in the manufacturing industry. E study analyzes the manufacturing industry’s digital transformation based on an IDAS and concludes the research streams.
