Lean Production and Smart Manufacturing represent two distinct dimensions. Lean Production is a production management methodology, whereas Smart Manufacturing is a technical approach to realize the manufacturing process. Lean Production can be considered a management-level concept, while Smart Manufacturing is primarily reflected in the technical layer — for example, networking, digitization, the Internet of Things, etc., are all technical means serving Lean Production.
Of course, there are inevitable overlaps between Lean Production and Smart Manufacturing. For instance, the application of Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) embodies both management and technology. In short, for manufacturing enterprises to achieve Lean Production, they must implement Smart Manufacturing solutions effectively.
