To calculate the total number of loaves produced by noon, let's break down the problem.

1. **Initial loaves produced by 6 a.m.**: The factory has already produced 1,200 loaves by 6 a.m.
2. **Production rate**: The factory produces 600 loaves of bread per hour.
3. **Hours between 6 a.m. and noon**: From 6 a.m. to noon is 6 hours.

Now, we can calculate how many additional loaves are produced from 6 a.m. to noon:
\[
\text{Loaves produced from 6 a.m. to noon} = 600 \, \text{loaves/hour} \times 6 \, \text{hours} = 3,600 \, \text{loaves}.
\]

Finally, the total number of loaves produced by noon is:
\[
1,200 \, \text{loaves} + 3,600 \, \text{loaves} = 4,800 \, \text{loaves}.
\]

Thus, the factory will have produced **4,800 loaves** by noon.
