Abstract—In order to reveal the factor impact on the advanced manufacturing mode diffusion, the influence of various factors in the diffusion process is studied from the perspective of system dynamics. To this end, firstly, factors in the advanced manufacturing mode diffusion are identified, which include both macro and micro factors from the perspective of whole industry and single enterprise respectively. Secondly, based on the factor analysis and system dynamics, both a macro and a micro system dynamic model of the advanced manufacturing mode diffusion are established. Then, the models are simulated by Vensim, and different parameter settings of the models are discussed. And then, the sensitivity analysis of factors is conducted. Finally, based on the results of system dynamics analysis, conclusions about the impact of these factors on the advanced manufacturing mode diffusion are drawn, which not only verifies the proposed models, but provides foundation for understanding the diffusion mechanism of the advanced manufacturing mode.
