- Abstract
Advanced manufacturing is challenging engineering perceptions of how to innovate and compete. The need for manufacturers to rapidly respond to changing requirements and demands; obtain, store, and interpret large volumes of data and information; and positively impact society and our environment requires engineers to investigate and develop new ways of making products for flexible and competitive production. In addition to the associated operational, technological, and strategic advantages for industry, advanced manufacturing creates educational, workforce, and market opportunities. Thus, this literature review aims to investigate the current state and emerging trends in advanced manufacturing. Specifically, this study addresses advances in manufacturing from manufacturing systems perspective, concentrating on emerging trends in process sensing and monitoring, equipment control and automation, machine tools, sustainable manufacturing, and green supply chain management. This review finds myriad efforts have been undertaken by researchers in industry, academia, and government labs from around the world, which have supported the development and implementation of new process technologies to improve manufacturing systems extending from unit process and shop floor operations to facility and supply chain management activities. However, emerging global challenges remain in various domains including energy (e.g., resource scarcities and global warming), critical materials vulnerable to supply disruptions due to crisis and rapid changes in demand, and services (e.g., healthcare supply chains during COVID-19 pandemic). Thus, manufacturing industry must continue the innovative development of advanced materials, manufacturing processes, and systems that ensure cost efficient, rapidly flexible, high quality, and responsible production of goods and services.
