Market Overview

In Brazil, the smart manufacturing sector is expanding due to technology adoption by businesses to help with production processes, operational effectiveness, and making better managerial decisions. Smart Manufacturing merges the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Robotics, Big Data, and Cloud Computing so that all Manufacturing processes can be accessed & monitored in real time (production equipment, products & materials, etc.) and allows for predictive maintenance and real-time control as well as automation. The growth of smart manufacturing reflects the need for improved efficiency, reduced downtime, and better product quality, while also transforming existing manufacturing facilities into intelligent, agile & flexible manufacturing facilities. Brazil's industrial base relies heavily on digital technology; 69% of all Brazilian industrial companies utilize at least one type of digital technology. However, only 7% of industrial companies in Brazil are utilizing ten or more types of technology. As an instance, approximately 16.9% of all large manufacturing corporations use AI technology. Given that the manufacturing sector represents 21.6% of Brazil's GDP, this indicates that the government is taking an active role in supporting smart manufacturing initiatives.

Smart Manufacturing has been heavily invested in Brazil as more companies utilize technology to improve their production processes, increase productivity, and enhance managerial decisions. In Brazil Smart Manufacturing combines IoT, AI, Robotics, BIG DATA, and Cloud Computing, allowing manufacturers to monitor and access all aspects of their production process in Real-Time (machines, products, etc.) and perform Predictive Maintenance, Control Operations, Automate Processes, etc. Brazilian Smart Manufacturing is growing because of the need for increased Efficiency, less Equipment Downtime, and Higher Quality Products, while also transforming Existing Manufacturing Locations into Intelligent, Flexible, and Adaptive Manufacturing Locations. Furthermore, digital technology is critical to the overall Brazilian Industrial Base; therefore, a large percentage (69%) of all Industrial Companies in Brazil utilize at least one form of Digital Technology. Nevertheless, only 7% of the Brazilian Industrial Companies are using ten (10) or more types of Technological Systems. Approximately 16.9% of all Large Manufacturing Firms use AI Systems, another illustration that the Brazilian Government supports and invests in Smart Manufacturing and associated Technologies since they represent 21.6% of Brazil's Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
