Industrial market is becoming increasingly competitive and companies need even more advanced resources to advantage over competitors. As an example, simulation is part of Industry 4.0 technologies and a key tool for lay out re-configuration, in order to realize a flexible product customization but also to optimize manufacturing processes. For these reasons Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation can determine a competitive advantage for smart factories in the light of possibilities offered by new technologies. The research is focused on a conceptual solution to integrate CFD simulation with technologies of the Industry 4.0, in order to open new opportunities for companies in terms of in terms of growth and competitiveness.
