Singapore\u2019s national research agency has formed a new lab with a local manufacturing software company to help manufacturers shore up their\u00a0Industry 4.0<\/a>\u00a0capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The S$18m lab, set up by the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*Star) and Arcstone, will imbue the latter\u2019s manufacturing execution systems with artificial intelligence<\/a> (AI) and industrial internet of things<\/a> (IIoT) capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This will enable manufacturers to optimise production processes, paving the way for more competitive and robust supply chains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, the lab will look into optimising energy use while making Arcstone\u2019s manufacturing execution systems easy to configure and use, lowering barriers for first-timers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The joint lab will also help Arcstone grow, halving the time for research and development. Arcstone will also create about 30 engineering jobs over the next three years, bringing its total headcount from about 50 to 80.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two A*Star units are involved in the lab: the Advanced Remanufacturing and Technology Centre (ARTC), which will contribute capabilities in advanced manufacturing and Industry 4.0 technologies, and the Institute of High Performance Computing, which will contribute expertise in computational modelling, simulation and AI<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arcstone works with companies from industries ranging from precision engineering to fast-moving consumer goods. It has been a member of the ARTC consortium since 2016 and has tripled its customer base and sales revenue since then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe challenging economic environment sends a reminder to many companies on the constant need for innovation to stay competitive,\u201d said Alfred Huan, assistant chief executive at A*Star\u2019s science and engineering research council.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAt A*Star, we collaborate with companies such as Arcstone to help them build new capabilities to move up the value chain. Such public-private partnerships continue to play an important role in encouraging businesses to adopt technologies to differentiate themselves from the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis collaboration with Arcstone is also an example of how local SMEs can deploy their new solutions to help other local SMEs speed up digital transformation in their factories, driving increased digitisation across the board.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new lab comes on the back of Singapore\u2019s efforts to transform its manufacturing industry, which accounts for one-fifth of the country\u2019s GDP and 500,000 jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2019, Singtel teamed up with A*Star and JTC to deploy 5G at the ARTC<\/a>. In 2018, HP and Singapore\u2019s Nanyang Technological University also set up a S$84m research lab<\/a> aimed at advancing digital manufacturing technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the World Economic Forum, Singapore, Japan and China are\u00a0among the world\u2019s top 25 countries<\/a>\u00a0well poised to gain from Industry 4.0 and other emerging technologies. A separate McKinsey study found that 96% of businesses in Southeast Asian countries believe\u00a0Industry 4.0 will bring new business models<\/a>\u00a0to their industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
