FACTORIES OF THE FUTURE
The Machinist
|October 2025
The future of manufacturing belongs to people who are technologically skilled and adaptable.

Step inside a factory today and you are likely to see robots welding, sensors feeding live data into dashboards, and AI predicting machine failures before they even happen. But amid all this futuristic change, there is one question manufacturing leaders keep asking: who will run this show tomorrow?
According to KNOLSKAPE's Workforce Insights: Manufacturing Industry 2025, this is more than a talent issue. If manufacturers fail to act, 2.4 million jobs could remain vacant by 2028, leading to an economic loss of one trillion dollars by 2030. Technology may build the factory, but people will decide whether it thrives.
WHY TECHNICAL SKILLS MATTER?
64.3% of manufacturing leaders still rank technical expertise as their top priority- CNC programming, welding, automation systems, predictive maintenance.
But priorities are shifting, digital twins to optimise production, human-machine interface design as people and robots collaborate, and sustainable practices to meet ESG and regulatory demands.
In automotive, the rise of EVs is driving hybrid skills that blend software, electronics, and mechanical engineering.

THE DRIVER OF EFFICIENCY: UNLOCKING MACHINE SHOP PERFORMANCE WITH MOBILTM SOLUTIONS
Did you know that 43% of mechanical failures in industrial machinery are due to improper lubrication? That's not all—54% of bearing failures also stem from poor lubrication practices. Imagine how much smoother operations could run by addressing this single issue! In fact, lubrication failures contribute to a staggering roughly 6% of the GDP in repair costs, equating to over $1 trillion in losses. In today's fast-paced industrial world, where every second counts and precision is key, companies constantly seek ways to enhance productivity, extend machinery life, and cut operational costs. A critical factor, often overlooked, is lubrication—the unsung hero of industrial efficiency. With machines growing more advanced, the need for specialized lubricants that can withstand extreme conditions is greater than ever.
