As informatization progress in modern factory, the Smart Factory has become a new stage. It is based on the digital factory, using the technology of the Internet of Things and equipment monitoring technology to strengthen information management and service. It can clearly grasp the production and marketing process, improve the controllability of the production process, reduce the manual intervention on the production line, collect the data of the production line immediately and correctly, and arrange the production schedule reasonably. All of which combined with the green intelligent methods, systems and other emerging technologies to build a high efficiency and energy saving, environmental protection, and comfortable humanized factory. This is the result of the practical application of IBM’s “Smart Earth” concept in manufacturing.
