Abstract: The importance of the digital factory for the digital transformation of industrial enterprises has been widely recognized by academia and industry.To comprehensively and deeply grasp the research progress of digital factory,the relevant literature was analyzed by the bibliometrics and grounded theory.The research showed that the research process of digital factory could be divided into embryonic period (1999-2003),exploration period (2004-2013) and development period (2014-present).Frontier research focused on technology and its application in manufacturing enterprises,and the research hotspots were displayed by the characteristics of distribution and evolution.The venation of research evolution was discussed from two perspectives:macro (integrated dominance,intelligent development and application,complex system development) and micro (closed-loop logic venation of “environment-technology-application-transformation”).Six research themes were summarized and extracted,and the theoretical framework of related research on digital factory was constructed.The research results aim to provide theoretical support for the practice of digital transformation of industrial enterprises.
