Abstract

This paper focuses on the digital transformation of small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises, expounds its significance for the contemporary economy, and points out that although they face problems such as a shortage of professional talents, lagging business concepts, and insufficient precision of policy support, they can still achieve transformation and development with the help of information and digital technologies. The paper analyzes in detail the application scenarios of big data, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things in the manufacturing industry, and proposes implementation paths such as creating intelligent production and supply chain systems and using digital twins to optimize product design, aiming to help small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises enhance their competitiveness through digital transformation and achieve sustainable development.
