Latin America Smart Manufacturing Market Trends:

Growing Adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI)

The adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in Latin American manufacturing is transforming the industry, with significant growth. According to the United Nations, on 24 September 2024, Chile’s National Center for Artificial Intelligence (CENIA) and the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) revealed the findings from the second edition of the Latin American Artificial Intelligence Index (ILIA 2024). This study, spearheaded by CENIA, assessed the AI adoption in 19 countries of the region. Chile secured the highest position in the ranking with 73.07 points out of a possible 100, followed by Brazil with 69.30 points, and Uruguay with 64.98 points. Moreover, the changes driven by AI transformed other key parameters such as predictive maintenance by helping the manufacturers detect the probable failure of equipment before it happens thereby reducing downtime. This ensured high-precision identification of defects that offered consistent quality in the products. As the demand from the market increased, companies were relying upon AI to meet growing market demands across the region.

Collaboration with Global Technology Providers

Numerous local companies are establishing collaborations with global tech enterprises that focus on automation, AI, robotics, and IoT technologies. Such collaborations introduce advanced technologies and industry standards to Latin America, enabling local manufacturers to adopt leading-edge smart manufacturing systems. Collaborating with international providers allows Latin American firms to tap into the newest innovations without needing to make significant investments in research and development (R&D) on their own. Additionally, these collaborations enable manufacturers to swiftly incorporate cutting-edge technologies into their processes, enhancing their competitive stance worldwide. With the growth of multinational corporations in the region, the exchange of knowledge and technology speeds up the integration of smart manufacturing, resulting in enhanced industrial modernization and efficiency throughout Latin American markets. In 2023, Critical Manufacturing, a leading supplier of manufacturing execution systems (MES) for worldwide, multi-site operations, extended its presence into Mexico. This action highlighted the firm's commitment to providing cutting-edge discrete solutions and fostering digital transformation across the Latin American manufacturing industry.

Increasing Investment in Smart Factory Infrastructure

Numerous producers in the area are pouring resources into cutting-edge technology, including IoT-integrated devices, automated production lines, and sophisticated robotics, to enhance manufacturing efficiency. These investments allow businesses to establish connected systems that optimize operations, enhance resource management, and improve decision-making in real time. Enhanced connectivity enables smart factories to remotely track key performance indicators (KPIs), minimizing operational inefficiencies and optimizing uptime. As producers acknowledge the lasting cost reductions and enhanced competitiveness associated with upgraded infrastructure, they are allocating more resources to develop these advanced production settings. This trend is speeding up the digital shift in Latin America's manufacturing industry, enabling firms to gain enhanced operational flexibility and lower overhead expenses. In 2023, Nokia revealed that Jacto had chosen it to deploy the first industrial-grade private wireless 4.9G/LTE and 5G network for the agricultural machinery sector in Latin America. Jacto, a Brazilian multinational in the machinery industry, established a 5G smart factory in Pompeia, situated in the Sao Paulo region of Brazil. It spanned 96,000 square meters, and this facility included advanced technology, such as an automated painting system, self-driving vehicle management, and an automated storage solution. The factory also featured a state-of-the-art training center.
