New website offers practical guide to making decisions on digital manufacturing investments

Industry 4.0 and digital processes are indispensable for future manufacturing growth. While many companies understand the importance of automation, they sometimes struggle to make it a reality. They need a strong partner with the know-how to guide them.

Mitsubishi Electric has a 100-year history of supporting manufacturers, plus a prolific track record for achieving factory automation at its own and other manufacturers‘ facilities. The approach embodies the Japanese philosophy of Kaizen that is now recognized worldwide.

The company’s new website titled "Digital Manufacturing" demonstrates a framework that enables management to make decisions on step-bystep investments to maximize profitability and accelerate growth. This approach, called the "Smart Manufacturing Kaizen Level (SMKL)," is a maturity model to help manufacturers navigate their way through the digital morass by defining shared key actions and expected outcomes across their organization with the target of achieving a high ROI from their digital manufacturing initiatives.
