Over the past five years, the manufacturing landscape has witnessed substantial growth, driven by robotics and automation technology advancements. Globally, Industry 4.0 machinery has seen widespread adoption, with companies integrating smart manufacturing processes to enhance productivity and reduce operational costs. In India, the transition has been gradual but steady, with an increasing number of businesses recognizing the benefits of automation. Despite the progress, the Indian market still faces significant challenges in fully adopting Industry 4.0. While sectors like pharmaceuticals and automotive are embracing automation, many industries, such as cement and steel, continue to rely on non-IoT-compliant legacy equipment. This makes the transition to smart manufacturing more complex. Educating businesses on the value of automation is paramount, and Yaskawa India has been proactive in addressing these challenges.
