About ‘Factory in a Box 2.0’

Nokia conceptualized 'Factory in a Box’ in 2017 and showcased the next generation of the solution at Hannover Messe 2019, including new technologies such as 3D printing, robotics, and augmented reality. The underlying communication infrastructure leverages Nokia’s private LTE 4G network capabilities.

Nokia’s Conscious Factory and Factory in a Box solution prove that Industry 4.0 benefits can be used to enable remote small factories, which can easily be moved to meet manufacturing needs. This has been developed with a series of partners working collaboratively over the past couple of years to achieve this success,said Grant Marshall, Vice President, Supply Network and Engineering at Nokia.
