AI Manufacturing
The use of artificial intelligence technologies, such as machine learning and deep learning, to optimize various aspects of manufacturing processes. This includes everything from design to quality control.
TECHNICAL DEFINITION
AI Manufacturing integrates Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms, including machine learning and deep learning, into production systems to enhance decision-making, optimize processes, predict outcomes, and enable autonomous operations across the manufacturing value chain.
BACKGROUND
Smart manufacturing is a broad category of manufacturing that employs computer-integrated manufacturing, high levels of adaptability and rapid design changes, digital information technology, and more flexible technical workforce training. Other goals sometimes include fast changes in production levels based on demand, optimization of the supply chain, efficient production and recyclability. In this concept, a smart factory has interoperable systems, multi-scale dynamic modelling and simulation, intelligent automation, strong cyber security, and networked sensors.
