MILPITAS, Calif. — November 7, 2022 — Industry 4.0 experts and visionaries will present at the SEMI Global Smart Manufacturing Conference (GSMC) starting tomorrow for two days to share state-of-the-art technologies and strategies designed to drive higher product quality, enhance production efficiencies and improve electronics manufacturing sustainability. Registration for the virtual conference is open.

Restricted travel and constraints on on-site access to experts across global semiconductor supply chains have accelerated the implementation of Smart Manufacturing strategies, big data analytics, autonomous systems and AI/ML technologies. Presentations at GSMC 2022, organized by the SEMI Smart Manufacturing Initiative, will focus on critical topics identified within the SEMI Smart Manufacturing Roadmap.

GSMC 2022 will feature six sessions (i=Intelligent):

• Session 1 – i-Acquire: Data Sources, Variety and Acquisition
• Session 2 – i-Insights: Current Point Systems
• Session 3 – i-Digital Twin: Multi-Level Digital Twin
• Session 4 – i-Predict: AI/ML Solution Integration
• Session 5 – i-Autonomy: Smart Autonomous Control
• Session 6 – Foundational Topics Including Sustainability and Cybersecurity

Smart Manufacturing leaders presenting at GSMC include:

At GSMC 2022, SEMI will launch the Smart Manufacturing Initiative’s Industry 4.0 Readiness Assessment Model (IRAM) to help organizations assess their Industry 4.0 technology deployment progress. Developed through a collaboration of SEMI and industry experts, the model is intended to help companies across the semiconductor supply chain identify technology enhancements critical to scaling and sustaining their smart manufacturing transformation.

The SEMI Smart Manufacturing Initiative is global with chapters in the Americas, China, Europe, Japan, Korea, Southeast Asia and Taiwan. Group members collaborate on Smart Manufacturing challenges and opportunities in their regions.
