3. How has the manufacturing industry changed in the past 100 years?

Production techniques have undergone developments spanning hundreds of years, and although artisans still exist today, however, the emergence of mechanization, mass production, technological advances and an emphasis on cost reduction have led to a significant change in the techniques of producing the goods used.

3.1 About automation

One of the most important changes that technology has brought to manufacturing is the transition to automation. Although the idea of automation has been used since the mid-20th century, it has really been widely deployed only in the last few decades, especially with the development of robotics. At first, many were concerned that automation would replace humans entirely, but the reality is that the opposite happens in many manufacturing environments.

To monitor and control the operation of automated devices, professionally trained, competent and highly skilled workers are still needed. In fact, automation has increased the average output value of workers in many related manufacturing industries. Therefore, it can be affirmed that automation not only contributes to increasing productivity, product quality and reducing dwell time, but also significantly benefits employees and brings production to a new level.

3.2 About processing

Outsourcing is the common term for transferring the software development process to overseas companies or individuals at a lower cost. Now, however, in manufacturing, there has been a new trend of shifting from outsourcing back to doing this work at the parent company or at least in locations close to headquarters in the United States.

The cause of this trend stems from problems related to inconsistent and unsatisfactory product quality, delayed shipping time and communication difficulties when performing outsourcing. Therefore, carrying out this work in close proximity to the head office will help improve product quality, ensure uniformity and minimize problems related to transportation and communication.

3.3 Using digitization to leverage data and analytics

Digital technology is now helping manufacturers use big data to create and provide a variety of services to their customers. For example, machine manufacturers can provide maintenance services by monitoring equipment in real time. This helps increase revenue for the company and can also help increase customer satisfaction and retain customers more long-term.

3.4 Using technology to drive marketing

Digital technologies have been applied in the manufacturing industry to optimize the production process and enhance business efficiency. However, the application of technology to marketing and sales activities has not yet been widely developed in the manufacturing industry. Currently, manufacturers are exploring and applying the power of the internet and social media to boost their marketing.

Much of the marketing and advertising work, previously outsourced to third-party PR or advertising firms, is now being done in-house by manufacturers to optimize costs and control the quality of work.

4. What value will updating machine and technology trends 2023 bring?

4.1 Increase productivity

This is because using new equipment is often more efficient, faster and more reliable. It can also perform tasks that old equipment could not perform before, allowing the use of new and innovative manufacturing techniques.

Machine upgrades can also automate some tasks, minimize the time and labor required to complete them. By improving productivity, businesses can increase output, meet demand more efficiently, and generate more revenue.

4.2 Improve product quality

Updating trends and technological machinery helps improve product quality. The new equipment is designed to produce high-quality products that meet or exceed customer expectations. This can make customers happier, increase loyalty, and create a better reputation in the market. In some cases, new technology can also enable the production of entirely new products or new product features, expanding company's income opportunities.

4.3 Reduce "downtime"

Another benefit of updating industrial machinery and technology trends is the reduction of downtime. Older equipment may require more frequent maintenance or repairs, leading to production delays and unplanned downtime. Upgrading new equipment can minimize the potential for breakdowns and the time required for maintenance and repairs, keep production on schedule and reduce costs associated with downtime.

4.4 Create a great competitive advantage

By being able to produce high-quality products more efficiently and with less downtime, businesses can attract more customers and outperform their competitors. Leading also allows a company to take advantage of new trends and opportunities in the market, expanding their revenue potential and market share.

5. Conclusion

The update of modern technology and machinery in industry brings many benefits in terms of productivity, quality and cost reduction. VME 2023 is the leading machinery exhibition event in Vietnam, organized by RX Tradex, providing the most attractive trading platform and exhibition of machinery and production technology in Vietnam.
