Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new approach for the integration of distributed manufacturing networks in the Smart Factory with encapsulation of production/assembly processes in unified node structure. Standard MES and ERP systems are based on the centralization of all data and execution of decision-making algorithms in cloud server. However, the newest IT trends use new decentralised management systems to store data and execute decision-making algorithms to shorten the response time of the network and increase security and data change traceability. Using the guidelines of newest IT trends, we propose a new decentralized production concept that can bring the same benefits as IT technologies.
