Furthermore, growing expenditures on research and development activities and rising investment in technical improvements by the market's leading competitors are major variables that will catalyze the smart manufacturing market's growth in the coming years. The world is fighting against the COVID-19 pandemic and trying to prevent the spread of the deadly coronavirus. Consequently, several governments regulate mandatory lockdown in various areas, which develops a decisive gap among supply chain and production units and reduces the smart factories' shipment of solutions and components.
To overcome this impact, enterprises are reforming their business models, discovering automation prospects, and investing in installing up-grade supply chain and manufacturing models. Therefore, the smart manufacturing market demand is projected to grow due to rising energy, resource, and intelligent automation efficiency. Consequently, long-term market growth is influenced by the rearrangement of the manufacturing market and strategic developments by the leading players, which, in turn, fuels the market growth of intelligent manufacturing in the coming years.

Growth Drivers
The increasing number of technological advancements in wireless sensor networks and their penetration across smart factories is a major driving factor that accelerates the market growth of smart manufacturing over the forecast period. Integration of wireless networks with dispersed autonomous devices comprises sensors for analyzing environmental and physical circumstances and is often recognized as a wireless sensor network (WSN). This sensor is usually adopted in the sectors such as water & wastewater treatment, oil & gas, and pharmaceutical.
In an oil & gas vertical plants, generators, tanks, separators, and compressors are managed, checked, and controlled with the help of sensors deployed in a WSN. The adoption of the WSN decreases the spending linked with the deployment of a communication system and sensor network. Growing usage of WSN in a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system and other smart factory solutions and components facilitates real-time data monitoring and process control.
Therefore, increasing research and development activities for WSN and vigorous implementation in the smart factories boost the growth of application areas in smart factories. Thus, these factors may contribute to the growth of smart manufacturing in the forecasting period owing to the constant updates in wireless sensor networks.
