Abstract

High material utilization rates have been revealed to be achievable through the use of hybrid manufacturing, which combines computer numerical control (CNC) machining with metal additively created performs. Hybrid production does present certain difficulties. Generally, designs with near-net shapes are chosen; this leads to tighter specifications for work coordinate system identification and a narrower margin for part placement within the stock. Reduction of stock material stiffness lowers the preform, limiting the material removal rates during machining. The importance of rising expenses and the environmental effects of energy consumption have increased for consumers worldwide. Manufacturing industries are more affected by energy prices, which must be lowered by measuring and optimizing energy use. Digital manufacturing is a smart technology and device; tool-based technology has emerged in Industry 4.0 and reduces energy consumption at the shop floor level. Digital manufacturers (DMs) have been used to visualize performance (track changes, comprehend, and optimize assets). By planning and assessing the manufacturing steps in virtual settings before production the use of DMs in smart manufacturing can shorten the time to market based on human-robot collaboration. The automation manufacturing sector provides the benefits of quality control, safety, and productivity. However, there are still many obstacles to overcome, such as skill shortages, complexity, workforce, integration costs, safety concerns, and regulatory compliance. Virtual duplicates of physical systems called digital technology are being investigated as a potential remedy for these issues. The importance of artificial intelligence and machine learning has revolutionized the impending Industry 4.0. Intelligent machines capable of communication with one another always take center stage when we discuss this transformation, leading us to refer to it as the Internet of things (IoT). The technology of cybersecurity, IoT, and cloud computing have been useful in achieving the best results in manufacturing sectors. Big data, cybersecurity, simulation, augmented reality, cloud, and IoT are introduced as fuzzy DEMATEL technologies (robot-based framework, mobile devices, additive manufacturing). The systems integration is classified as effect technologies.
