Smart industry has become an important trend in the development of Industry 4.0, especially in promoting the creation of efficient systems in the manufacturing sector. Various countries and studies are encouraging the application of technologies such as IoT, digital twins, artificial intelligence, and smart factories to improve industrial efficiency and sustainability. Therefore, studies related to smart industry are important and necessary especially on the context of smart manufacturing in order to see the direction of future research trends. This study uses a qualitative approach with literature data from the Scopus database covering the period 2020 to 2025. Research trend analysis was conducted through data processing using Bibliometric analysis in R Studio and the VOSviewer applications. To identify the latest research trends regarding smart industry, particularly in the context of Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing, this analysis can provide a comprehensive picture of future research developments and directions within a global context.
