Cyber Physical Factory
Introduction
Cyber physical factory (CPF) is also known as Discrete Micro Production Facility or simply Micro Production Facility. It demonstrates the convergence of the Informational Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) at micro factory level where the machines are discretely located. It has 18 varieties of machines for different manufacturing operations.
The key features that this factory has:
- Customer Order Management
