Tripartite effort to set up smart factoryAuto parts maker Daisin has adopted automated guided vehicles (AGVs) for parts delivery during the production process. According to management consultancy McKinsey & Co, driven by IoT technology, global factories could generate between US$1.4 trillion and $3.3 trillion by 2030. DTAC has the opportunity to work with aluminium vehicle parts maker Daisin and Nectec to develop a smart factory prototype, which could be followed by other factories in Thailand, he said. Thanin Leegomonchai, president of Daisin, pointed out in the wake of the pandemic, the company has seen the importance of technology and automation which could transform it into a smart factory. Mr Krit pointed out the collaboration is the first stepping stone for Daisin to become a smart factory by embracing Internet of Things, 5G and data analytics to unlock the potential for a smart factory which draws together automation, efficiency, productivity and insight.
